We Are the Titans

 

For Halloween this year Samuel and Isaiah made their own costumes!  It's so nice to have kids old enough to do that!  They wanted to be Greek gods thanks to their gifted curriculum that teaches them Greek mythology.  They also love the series of books called "Percy Jackson and the Oympians".

 

Samuel was Apollo, the god of the sun, archery, youth, and music.  Isaiah was Hades, the god of the underworld.  His symbols include a helm of darkness, a two pronged staff, and a three headed dog named Cerberus.  

 

If our kids are the Greek gods, that makes me and Josh the Titans.  But we don't know what the Titans looked like, and since Nephi wanted to be wolverine, I decided to be Rouge.  Easy costume: a white streak of hair and a pair of gloves.  Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of myself, but it was pretty cool.  Josh was the Blob also from the X-men and the kids had great fun punching his pillow fat, both at home, at the church party, and while he gave out candy to the Trick-o-Treaters.

 

Gracie was a princess at school and a ladybug when she collected candy.  At school Gracie is pictured with her friend Harini.  All the kids in Nephi's kindergarten class had to dress up as scarecrows. In the last picture the boys are posing with their friends Tristan, Cameron, and Aiden.

Greckich Bogow Rodzice

 

Na swieto Halloween, Samuel i Isaiah sami zorganizowali swoje wlasne kostjumy.  Fajnie miec dzieci wystarczajaco duze kotre sie same przebieraja.  Obydwoje chcieli byc Greckimi bogami,  bo oni sie ucza mytologi w szkole dla zdolnych dzieci do ktorej chodza raz na tydzien.  Tez Samuel i Isaiah bardzo lubia serie ksiazek "Percy Jackson" o mytologi. 

 

Samuel byl Apollo, bog muzyki, slonca, molodosci, i lucznictwa.  Isaiah byl bogiem podziemia, ktory ma psa Cerberus z trzema glowami, helm, i kij z dwoma zebami. 

 

Jesli nasze dzieci sa Greckimi bogami, to ja i Josh jestemy rodzicami bogow.  Ale nie wiemy jak rodzice bogow wygladaja, wiec sie przebralismy jako postacie z komiksu X-men.  Ja bylam Rouge, bo bardzo latwo pomalowac sobie kosmyk wlosow na bilao i zalozyc czarne rekawiczki.  Nefi byl psotacia "Wolverine".  Josh byl postacia Blob, to taki bardzo gruby czlowiek.  Dzieci bardzo lubily go uderzac w poduszki jak rozdawal cukierki tu przed domem i jak bylismy w kosciele na przyjeciu.

 

Grace byla biedronka jak zbierala cukierki, a w szkole byla ksiezniczka.  Na zdjeciu jest z kolezanka Harini.  Kadzy w przedczolu Nefiego musial byc przebrany jak starch na wroble.  Na ostatnim zdjeciu to nasze dzieci z kolegami Tristan, Cameron, i Aiden.
