I started on the Halloween costumes earlier than ever, and still ended up finishing the day before the big event. Marcus was Harry Potter in Quidditch uniform, complete with a broomstick and Golden Snitch. Elise was Hermione with wavy hair and her wand. Stephen was Hedwig the owl, although without the beak many people thought he was a chicken. I'd say chicken is about right, since this normally-talkative kid wouldn't say "Trick-or-Treat" or "Thank You" to anyone we visited!
Here are some pictures from the party and from Halloween night:

Looks like everyone had fun! I like the costumes, especially Marcus's! Now you just have to figure out how to keep them from overloading on candy.
Candy isn't a big problem... the other tradition we kept from last year is to separate out any chocolate that will melt well. That gets saved for chocolate fondue. Candy bars get baked into brownies. The rest is slowly digested over the next 1,000 days, 2 pieces at a time... like the great Sarlacc would do.
