It's Good to be Queen
Hallowe'en is upon us. Christopher is Harry Potter (though for the party we went to tonight he rejected his cape in favour of casual attire), Emma is a "girl wizard," and Jason and I decided to be king and queen. King and queen of what, we're not sure, but we sure do look royal. (I should also point out that the headpiece of my gown has a black chinstrap, which accounts for the slightly bearded look I am sporting in the photos below ... not that I have suddenly grown facial hair!)
We were invited to a party tonight at the home of Christopher's school friend Jessica. As with other parties at Jessica's, we had to leave early because of the atmosphere of cat hair in the air, to which Christopher
has a bad allergic reaction. Fortunately, I get to wear my royal robes again at work on Tuesday. Our theme at work for Hallowe'en is to dress up in costumes that are somehow career-related (because Hallowe'en falls during Career Awareness Week). So, I plan to tell everyone that my next career move is to find a small backward country to rule.
Although, most days, Jason and I find ruling our small backward household quite enough of a challenge. God Save Our Gracious We!

Trudy, your queen costume is totally appropriate for career week because
a) you RULE!
b) you are the queen of historical fiction
Nice costume by the way.
Your Majesties...you look fabulous! Where did you find the costumes?
Once again, Romar comes through!!
Oh, my, you look fantastic. I'd bow to you.
You guys look fantastic. My oldest (a red head) was a knight, my youngest was Dr. Doom and my middle one, Madeline, was Scarlett O'Hara.
