Halloween circa 1982

When we asked the boys who they wanted to be for Halloween, they immediately chose Tron (from the 1982 movie of that name) and Copper (Tron's imaginary best friend who is very powerful and protects Mr. 5 from any bad guy that might be around - with the GGA's help of course). And they chose Sark for Mr. 1. Hmm... Where were we going to find these costumes - particularly given that Copper's fame has not yet spread.

So I ordered shirts and pants and glow-in-the-dark tape and made the costumes based on a picture Mr. 7 drew and the lightcycle clip from Tron on YouTube. The boys were pleasd with the results and they really did glow in the dark.

Luckily the boys debuted their costumes at the Google Halloween party where Tron is widely known and appreciated and they were happily identified correctly by many. On Halloween night Mr. 7 explained to every house who the boys were and some information about the movie, passing his love of this classic. We're still working on our Halloween candy and probably will be until Christmas (when I secretly throw all the the Halloween candy and replace it with the Chistmas sweets).
