Yes, the adults dressed up too. Every year our good friends the Taylors throw a themed halloween party. This year they had just bought a house built in 1965 (and never updated, see the wallpaper below). So the theme was 1965. Tom Wolfe was there, as was Truman Capote and George Bush as a cheerleader at Yale. People brought Waldorf Salad and TV dinners.

We went as Fred and Wilma Flintstone. Summer and Ayren dressed up as Barney and Betty Rubble. I broke my no homemade costume rule for this plan - it was worth it. We made them out of fleece (a lovely, warm and forgiving fabric) the day of the party.

Rohanna went as James Bond and Nathan as her Bond Girl. It was frightening, she even had fake chest hair. Jess was astroturf, which was apparently invented in 1965.
