Happy Halloween

The boys dressed up as Mad-eye Moody, Lucius Malfoy and Baymax.  They went to school on Thursday dressed up and were very disappointed that the school wouldn't let them take their staff and walking stick/wand.  Then, last night we had our truck or treat at the church which was so fun.   Tonight the kids have opted to watch a movie instead of trick or treating.  They said they got plenty of candy so we are good with that.  Nathan has been busy with some costume accessories.   He made Jarom's mad eye and staff and Josiah's walking stick/wand.   My contribution was finding clothes/shoes/wigs at second hand stores.  
Mad eye Moody and Malfoy

The eye actually moves around with Jarom's movements.  The staff is made out of an apple tree branch that had a perfect skull look to it.  The walking stick is used also as a wand just like Malfoy in the book.  The wand fits into the  upper part of the walking stick.

The snake head on the end of the walking stick/wand.  This is carved out of wood.  

Mad-eye Moody's wand.  Nathan made it this evening.

This is our collection of wands.  There are lots of curses and spells being uttered around the house.  


The cutest Baymax out there.  He already had the fist and mask from his birthday so this was an easy put together costume.

Sadie as a jelly fish.

The Betta and The fish tank

We have had these big jars like forever and really haven't done anything with them except put change in one.  Well while Josiah was here...
