Halloween 2009

[Ernie]

Anyone dress up as anything fun for Halloween???

My son (to be three in December) has a recent fascination with Scooby Doo. So, he was Shaggy, my wife was Velma, and I was Fred.

If you look close, you can see some dark stuff on Logan's chin. I painted in Shaggy's scruff, but he smeared it around.

It was also pretty chilly yesterday evening- about 40 F and windy. Logan had two shirts on under his Shaggy green and was runnig from house to house, so he was warm, but Velma and I were chilly.

Also, for those that have seen me, you know I never leave home without facial hair AND that my hair is dark dark brown with a considerable amount of gray. I shaved all the way down to bare face and used temporary hair color. So, even though it looks like a simple costume, it was quite an event for me and my face- which hasn't been completely naked in over ten years.

Also, the people that understood the costumes (imagine that some folks don't know Scooby and Mystery Inc!) really got a kick out of it. We sure did.

Look forward to see some of your 2009 costumes. In the meantime... "Let's split up and look for clues."

[Heather]

That's great - you are a fabulous Fred, Ernie!

Anyone else? We did not dress up, but we did get a new kitten for Halloween. I had to put my little Moey to sleep a few weeks ago. : ( The new kitten made for a lot of Halloween fun though!

Great! Did Shaggy end up with a lot of Scooby Snacks?

 

[Ernie]

Heather, we got a new kitten a month and a half ago. His name... Scooby.

hmmm .....
why is it that loss of facial hair takes years off one's appearance? or is it the blonde that makes you look younger?

That's really cute... a nice family Halloween...

and ok, answering your question, yes, other people also dressed up for Halloween...

so here I go, and let the others follow :evil::evil:

My work colleague organized a halloween party here in Basel... that Morning I had no idea what to do, as the day before I was not even sure I would be able to join the party (had been in the hospital)... but I think I got some ideas during the day...

I am the one of the right (wearing a hat) and my colleague is the Bunny jumping out of the hat!

But Ernie, your wife doesn't look too happy.

But Ernie, your wife doesn't look too happy.

She was freezing! She's a trooper though. We warmed up when some of the folks handing out candy to the kids offered beer to the big kids. Score. That's the way to trick or treat.
