Costumes 2012!


Theme: music.  From left to right, a Victrola (gramophone), Mozart, Half Note, and Viking Opera singer. This is the only picture we got of my costume and Abe's. I had an awesome gold skirt and green robe. Abe's Victrola reproduction was something to behold. He hid a portable speaker inside the box to play music too. 

Genghis considers his wig. He was very into being Mozart. It's his favorite composer. If you ask him what his favorite song is, he replies "Sonata by Mozart".



 Xena' half note was meant to attach to her shirt. But she made it clear that holding it herself was much more fun. (Side note: check out how she curls her right foot around - I never thought feet could look graceful until I met Xena.)

I love your costumes, you are so creative!

I love the costume theme. I never realized that one could dress up as gramophone. Little Mozart is adorable. I love how you guys took photos of him playing the piano.

Awesome costumes! The ruffles on little Mozart are a definite highlight.

Nice. I'm impressed by how much mileage you've gotten out of that gold skirt (also by the costumes.)

When Genghis is grinning at the piano he looks just like you! (Minus the wig). These are very creative and adorable costumes!

Best toddler Mozart costume I've ever seen. And I've seen a LOT of toddler Mozart costumes. Love the family theme.

I am been waiting and waiting to see what you decided for costumes this year. Happily they didn't disappoint. I love them. You are my costume idols.
