When my kids were little, our church always had a Fall Harvest Fest as an alternative to going Trick or Treating on Halloween night. Our family always enjoyed this time. I was often involved in helping organize it and thinking up creative "Biblical" names for silly carnival type games. I'd help with decorating and so forth. I would make or borrow or assemble in some form or fashion costumes for at least the kiddos. Many times our whole family would dress up in similar costumes. One time we were the karate family, another time we were all clowns, once we were the California raisins with all my guys in black panty hose and garbage bags and white gloves, and we were all Indians one time. Here are a few of the pictures from way back when.....
Jonathan in the clown costume that I think all 3 wore at one time or another.
Stephen as Peter Pan.
Rusty made his own stilts to be Goliath and Jonathan made a very cute David.
The whole tribe!
And the daughter I never had--Rustina!
We sure had fun!!
