Sneak Peek - Halloween Costumes

The boys picked out their Halloween costumes today. The days of homemade costumes that I labor and stress over are gone because the boys tell me my creations just don't look as good as the store bought ones. (Did you also know that my kids prefer a store bought cookie over a nice homemade one. What is wrong with these kids?)

But anyway - back to the costumes - Jacob wanted to be an alien and Ben said he was going to be a Star Wars clone. We have a Star Wars clone costume so in theory Ben did not need a costume.

We went to I-Party to see what we could find. Ben decided not to be a Star Wars clone and chose an Indiana Jones outfit. Jacob could not find an alien costume so we went to another store - the "Spirit of Halloween". George tried to take the boys to this store earlier in the week but they were too scared to go in.

Jacob initially went into the store with me but then saw these awful clown masks and that was it for him. I walked him out and he waited in the car with George and Ben. I then bought the last alien costume in the store!


Indiana Jones - crack that whip!


My alien - what a great mask!
