It’s been two years in a row now, so I guess it’s safe to call this our\u00c2\u00a0annual<\/em> Halloween drop-in.<\/p>\n

Halloween, if it is not our\u00c2\u00a0favorite<\/em> holiday, is the Lumos-Studio-est of the holidays. It captures the\u00c2\u00a0perfect combination of creativity, playfulness, childlikeness, spookiness, decadence, and demanding that your neighbors give you candy. Here’s how the night went down.<\/p>\n

[Voting for this year’s Halloween costume contest is closed. Show up next year in costume and get in the running yourself!]<\/p>\n

First, it’s no longer springtime in Paris<\/a>…in our kitchen. No,\u00c2\u00a0the cherry blossoms have fallen and given way to the headless horseman.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-003\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Aaaahhhh!!! Cupcakes and apple slices!!!<\/p>\n

Your hosts for the evening will be my lovely bride, Cleopatra…<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-048\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…and me, Mark Antony.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-037\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(No, not the singer. Yes, I’m sure. No, I definitely don’t speak Spanish. It’s not even spelled the same!)<\/p>\n

We’ll be assisted by the beautiful\u00c2\u00a0(that’s what her name means) Belle.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-006\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We’ve invited some friends from history (or historical fiction) such as Robin Hood,<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-090\"<\/a><\/p>\n

our friend the sailor,<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-081\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jay Gatsby (and his lady friend),<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-175\"<\/a><\/p>\n

a jester to keep things light,<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-124\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and a family consisting of a\u00c2\u00a0couple of lovely witches and either a Roman or John Belushi…we’re not sure which.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here in Columbia we’ve found it’s a bad idea to open the door to yankee soldiers, but this one’s wife was so charming that we relented.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-069\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fortunately, if things got out of hand we had a number of super heroes to look out for us!<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-051\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-058\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(Fact: Batman loves Ring Pops)<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-227\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-223\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-180\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-187\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We also had some other friends from movies and television come by, like Elsa,<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-158\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(covered in) Cookie monster,<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-103\"<\/a><\/p>\n

AAAAHHHHHH! AAAAHHHH! Get them away! Get them away!!
\nWait, okay…it’s just a costume. Well, it’s still pretty creepy…though not as creepy as that baby-sun abomination.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-095\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“Marcel Marceau called, but he didn’t leave a message.”<\/p>\n

\"Beth\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dog\u00c2\u00a0nappers!<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-137\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If this young lady wins the costume contest I’m going to be suspicious–after all, she’s a cheetah!<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-230\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A little Day of the Dead action…<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-186\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And if your drink gets too warm, perhaps an Ice Cube.
\n(Thank you, thank you…I’ll be here all week.)<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-191\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If your team does badly, blame these guys.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-144\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And if your barbecue doesn’t win, blame him.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-200\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“You’re forgetting, Lindsay, that as a psychiatrist, I was a professional twice over – an analyst and a therapist.”<\/p>\n

\"Halloween-2015-202\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy Halloween, everybody. \u00c2\u00a0:-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
