It was the saddest thing, not being home for my boys’ Halloween. I did my best to decorate the house — complete with a fresh batch of tree ghosts — but was away by the time my sons had their school Halloween parties, and other Halloween events (such as Jacob’s first boy-girl birthday party with dancing, which was Halloween-themed; he dressed as an Incredibles kid for it).
Enjoy some of the pictures from Halloween. Dave took all of them, most of them were texted to me over the course of the night. Sorry I’m so late with these….
We’re now in a place where the kids have many costume choices. I love how easily Jacob could don this for a birthday party.
The boys could dress up for Halloween at school. Timmy’s costume had to be a book character, so Harry Potter was our no-brainer option. Jacob had more liberties with his costumes, but couldn’t wear a mask, nor could his costume impede with school activities. That ruled out his Incredibles outfit, and also his Pikkachu costume, since it had a stuffed midsection and he couldn’t sit at his desk with it. So he put together this baseball player’s outfit easily. Completely last minute, good job!
On Halloween night, Jacob donned a Pikachu costume that a friend had made for her son years ago. That particular son is now in college, and she had held on to the costumes. It fit Jacob really well. I picked up the yellow-lycra bodysuit through Amazon, but I’m afraid it made him look more like a chicken from a distance…
Jacob didn’t mind.
Jacob even had yellow shoes, ha ha!
Timmy has a headlamp on his head.
The boys were quite happy with their take this year, they covered two streets, which may not sound like much, but it’s at least one mile worth of walking.
