Jared and Grace are taking part in a Cotillion program this fall. They finished off the first half of the session with a Sock Hop where they got to practice their Swing skills!
And of course, Halloween... Justin dressed up as a Zombie and so we embarked on a little stage make-up fun for the full effect. Here are a few shots of the process.
First, the liquid latex.
Next, toilet paper and more liquid latex for the sagging skin effect and gapping wound.
Then, the make-up.
After a little more blending , we had a great looking zombie!
Jared sported the Michael Jackson look.
Madeline went with a literary character, Katarina from The Taming of the Shrew.
and Grace, along with her friend, Kirsten, were Rock Stars.
And since we were hosting a party, we decided to get in on the fun, as well. I was a tree and Jon was a tree hugger. His idea... pretty cute, huh! (His shirt says, "Unrepentant Tree Hugger")
Well, that is it for October... stay tuned as I am hoping to get around to pics from November while on break this next week!
