Halloween is Alex's favorite holiday by far. He looks forward to it all year and once his birthday is over, he goes into Halloween overdrive. (Max would like me to mention that he likes Halloween, but it's not his favorite holiday, Christmas is).
This year Alex dressed up as a ghost and Max as Blue Batman. They looked great and were both very happy with their costumes.
(for trick or treating we ended up putting Alex in his old karate uniform so he was all white underneath his ghost costume. And warmer. Max got to wear a pair of feetie jammies underneath his bat suit and he has a blue sweatshirt he wore under his cape when he got cold.)
We were busy this year with Halloween celebrations and these costumes got a lot of wear. So much wear I was really starting to worry that Alex's ghost costume wouldn't hold up by the actual day. Every time we went somewhere pieces were falling off. I was hand washing Max's batman costume every night to get chocolate and paint and mud off of it.
Final total was five parties, a scavenger hunt at the zoo and last night's trick or treating. The boys got so much candy and little Halloween toys I have no idea what we're going to do with it all!
