Halloween

Funny, funny, funny. So Christian and Ben have these Super Hero names for my Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad decided to dress up as their characters - Tinkerbell and Superman, as if it's not obvious. The boys thought it was GREAT! What was even better is that my parents were stopped a time or two by complete strangers asking to get their pictures.

Christian's super hero name has been "Super Dog" for the longest, and Ben was "Chigger." I was really excited to be able to create their unique costumes for this event, I had lots of ideas, and had to make one more trip to the store to get the final touches. Unfortunately, on the way to the store that night they both decided that they were no longer the Super Dog and Chigger pair but instead they were Iron Man and Spider Man. Ugh, REALLY! I am not a fan of novelty stuff. The only novelty stuff the boys get to wear is their underwear. So, I tried to talk them out of this generic getup and encourage the creative characters that were not longer cool to them. They wouldn't have it.....Iron Man and Spider Man it is. It's not about what Mom wants, right? They had a lot of fun, and were very excited to play the part of their costume characters. They still dress up in their costumes and run around the house. We even let Ben dress up as Spider Man for his birthday party - I will post pictures of that later.
