Anyway, I acquired a gray wig and beard, and ported around a wooden sword and my walking staff.
The idea? Gandalf, of course!
The actual result, visually?
Really, really old Hagrid.

Yes, I wore a costume for Halloween.
We attended a party hosted by some dear friends we haven't seen in forever. The kids made out like bandits trick or treating, too.

Yeah, they did get a kick out of it. And it turned out that the wig and beard were very effective in fending off the drizzle that started near the end of the candy gathering.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've warned my kids: *MY* Dad won a Halloween costume contest at the local VFW dressing up as the Tooth Fairy. Behave, or I'll re-institute that family tradition. :)
