Diana – you are exactly right. Totally crazy – and talented sisters. We made our own costumes – but Lindsey had a friend make her Alice costume… she's more interested (and very talented) in jewelry making than sewing.
The kids – the teenagers anyway – had raised eyebrows. Of course, they themselves LOVE to dress up.
The oldest has made the most AMAZING Belatrix LeStrange costume to wear to the Harry Potter midnight show. The second left pics on my iphone of her face painted as Suki from Avatar.
Amy – the backgrounds are photoshopped in – we just took the pics at my house. It took a couple of us all day to finish making our costumes. If we were better at planning ahead we'd have done some sort of silly public stunt. Either way it was fun.
That was amazing! Those costumes, and the ability to take the photos on that background, those were just unbelievable. I am assuming you were just at someone's house, not at a photo studio?

They just didn't want to be seen with us.
