10-31-09 Cat Woman and Wonder Woman aren't really enemies
Friends:
The moon was full and we are in New Orleans! That, right there, is a recipe for a special Halloween brew! As a family, we decided to depict Heroes and Villains. My husband Antonio was Batman, my nine year old daughter Eliana was Wonder Woman, I was Cat Woman, my nineteen year old daughter Soleil was Harley Quinn (Joker’s girlfriend and partner in crime), and Soleil’s boyfriend Tomas was The Joker.

Soleil and Tomas headed for Voodoo Fest, a huge music festival in New Orleans City Park. Antonio, Eliana and I went to our church’s Trick-O-Trunk, an annual Halloween celebration where parishioners park their cars in the church parking lot and decorate their trunks. There is music, games, a haunted house, and food. It’s like a big festival and the kids only have to walk from trunk to trunk to go trick-or-treating. So much fun!

They participated in a Mummy Wrap contest with toilet paper. Eliana, Camrymm, Ashlynn & Sienna won 2nd place for their bow-tastic work! LOL

I had a bit of a brawl with Bat Man. Everyone wanted a picture with him. How dare he still my spotlight when I am on the prowl!

My brother, Gary, was a Star Wars Sith. His daughter, Camrynn, was Princess Leia.
10-31-09 Who will rescue Princess Leia from the evil Sith?
My mom, Josie, is adorable. She intermittently wore a mask but here she is in all her cuteness.
