Good evening! The boys enjoy dreaming...Dear Quinn,<br /><br />Good evening! The boys enjoy dreaming and pretending, that's for sure. Noah came up with his own idea for the wings and mask. He was going to make them of paper, but I thought they'd be torn in a heartbeat, so used fleece.<br /><br />Christopher is actually a movie character from the 1970s, a highly intelligent tabby cat with jeweled and glowing collar, who arrives in a bug-like flying saucer. The Cat from Outer Space was a Disney movie, and pretty low budget, but the boys loved it, and Christopher, a cat lover, was besotted with Jake kitty and his powers. So it's not an original idea, but we had fun making it come to life. I kept his tabby marabou tail and collar, and the saucer remains, for now, as a ship to carry stuffed animals to far-away worlds :}<br /><br />Very best,<br /><br />NatalieZipZiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02086335016901683883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18213663.post-22195285865412642202013-11-05T20:14:57.441-05:002013-11-05T20:14:57.441-05:00Very creative costumes!

I'm especially intrigued by the cat from outer space, and I love that he was rolled around in the wagon and walked down the gangway. What fantastic memories!<br /><br />Best,<br />QuinnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
