Our Unit on the Zombie Apocolypse

I suppose hlearning about ancient Egypt would have been time better spent than weeks on zombies, but since I eschew makeup (except for inexpertly applied mascara on Sundays), we had no eyeliner in the house and had to settle for chunky Halloween paint-crayons.  Therefore, instead of a charming post about the time we spent hlearning about ancient Egypt, you get hollow-eyed zombies dressed up as Egyptians.

Oooh.  Scary!

Millie asked if she could paint my face while I nursed Zeke.   Bad idea. (Now you know why I eschew makeup. It doesn't do much for me.)

 The zombies made some Egyptian collars.

This zombie asked for a portrait.

 

 

 

 

They were all so pleased to be wearing makeup that they were super-serious.  With zombie makeup, super-serious translates as super-scary-angry-mean.  I burst out laughing after I took this picture,

 

 

and then they tentatively cracked some grins.

 

 

I think I'll teach Piper to avoid makeup when she grows older. Not that it doesn't flatter her natural beauty...
