My A. designs a costume each year as a fashion sketch/drawing and then I must live up to her standard and expectations at the sewing machine!! I will post her drawing that I followed this year... as soon as I find it...it seems she has tucked it away somewhere. She had green draping from the back/tip of the hat, too.
A funny story...Last Sunday M. [wearing his costume] came riding down on his bike to our yard, where we were all doing Fall yard work. He visited a while and when he left to go home A. observed as he left the driveway, "Well, at least he's a safety minded Grim Reaper who doesn't want to be dead. He looked both ways before pulling out into the street!!"
That's N. being Zorro.
A not so funny story...Last Sunday N. went for a bike ride wearing his costume. He only went on the street as far as being in front of our next door neighbor's house when he yelled back to us [all doing yard work], "Help! I'm stuck! Help! My cape is stuck!" His cape was wound into his bike chain and he was pulled off his bike. Not a good thing. He was ok, but we told him Zorro never rides a bike for that reason!!
(and maybe field mice) in the graveyard.

This is not my house, but one in another town that I drive by often and I thought their yard display was really clever. I adore the candelabra on the table.
