Howl-o-ween


Brandon had quite the dilemma this year, figuring out what he wanted to be for Halloween. He really wanted to wear the costume that Ethan's wearing, but for some reason (can't remember now) Ethan got dibs on it. We looked at Wal-Mart, and well, need I say more?! He occasionally threw out the box idea; I think he remembers when his cousin Josh was a box and liked the concept. Then he discovered some Elvis-like sunglasses at Jeanine's house and so we began trying to figure out an Elvis costume (interestingly enough, he has seemed vaguely intrigued with "the king" every so often in the past few years). It wasn't coming together and time was of the essence and after shooting down a few of my clever, off-the-cuff ideas (like dress up as your dad-hee), it was back to the box. He wasn't so sure about it when we showed up at the park for the neighborhood thing, but he ended up getting a few raving compliments...

Brandon donned this same costume & bucket 6 years ago...isn't that sweet?!? :)

helllllooo, 'pre-' pre-teen attitudinal expression...!!

I told him he should join the drama club...!
