Halloween is a BIG deal at our house. This year, JT is planning to be an alien. He had a very precise notion of alien appearance when he designed his costume (which occurred this past summer.....I meant it when I said we take the day seriously) and his Grandma was a most impressive seamstress, coping with yards of fleece in the California August heat.
In the past month we've been putting the finishing touches on the costume and this weekend, we are experimenting with hair color. Because, as I'm sure you know, aliens do not have dark brown hair.
While this may do for his daily life as a third grader, it is NOT an alien look. Changes were in order.
A little mid-design assessment....a little more color needed to be added.
This was deemed perfect. We call the color alien blue and the boy is taking it for a test drive this weekend.
There's so much we don't know about this alien - does he come in peace? Does he hail from the areas I like to call pro-universe parts of the universe? Has he come to earth of his own volition, or did he escape from a secret underground government zoo? If it's the latter, does he remember the zoo's weekend hours?
