HALLOWEEN 2015

IS HALLOWEEN ABOUT THE CANDY - IT SURE IS!

Can last year's Muppet Invasion be topped?

Last Year
YES! The citizens of the Place Under the Pine think so. Maybe if they harness some of what makes Halloween, well, Halloween it is possible - not the scary or the spooky, but, the CANDY!

Candy is synonymous with Halloween, at least in the mind of most kids. So, what better theme to work off than candy?
This year's costume theme winner...(drum roll)...WILLY WONKA! Remember that classic 70's movie all about candy? Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? The golden ticket? Anyone, anyone?

The original cast

The PUTP version
The kids really took on the roles they were given. Lolli (seen below in Violet Beauregard wear) chomped on her whad of gum while trick or treating.
Elli (top hatted like Mr. Wonka himself) hobbled along on his cane - for the first few steps down the sidewalk.



Oskie (in his Oompa Loompa workwear) hummed that repetitive Oompa Loompa tune the entire night.

    1. Thanks Jenny. We like doing a family costume...although the kids kept saying they want to do their own thing next year? This might be our last year as a group costume? :(
