A couple of alluring aliens (Rosemary and Amara)
have landed on our front doorstep. Notice Amara's UFO hovering
around her waist.

Rocket and Astronaut
(Felicia and Blaine) blasting
off for the moon. We were a big hit in Jason's Kindergarten class.

Greetings Earthlings! |
Galactic
Visitors from Outer Space

Our family Halloween theme this year
was "Outer Space", with Michael as the half-Vulcan/half-human Spock
of Star Trek fame, Amara and Rosemary as blue-skinned aliens,
Felicia as a Saturn V rocket, Blaine as an Apollo 11 astronaut and
Jason as a Space Shuttle Commander.
This year's
costumes are dedicated to Felicia's Dad, who passed away not long
before Halloween, as Felicia was busily sewing away. She still
managed to pull everything together so that we had the costumes
completed ahead of time and so the family could attend the memorial
service in Tucson. |

Jason as a space shuttle
commander and Michael as Mr. Spock from Star Trek. Fascinating!

Felicia's rocket costume required some engineering so she could
easily get in and out. The top stage would slide into the bottom
stage.

The nose cone of the rocket was made of funnels while
Felicia sewed her "flame" skirt. The hardest part was
maneuvering through low doorways and under branches. I guess she
wasn't used to being 7½ tall! |
