Costume Shopping

The boys told me that this year they were done with the lame super hero costumes and they were ready to be something scary. I responded, "If you are going to be something scary you are going to have to buy it yourself". I hate the nasty disgusting costumes especially the really evil ones. Since costumes cost a lot of money they both decided to let me buy their costumes.
The day we went shopping Mark immediately found a ninja costume he was excited about. Luke on the other hand was a little irritated he couldn't have a scary costume. I told Luke, "You just show me your most favorite costumes even the scary ones and we will go from there". He was happy about the freedom to choose and quickly narrowed it down to 5 then 2. In all there was only 1 scary one which was part of the first group of 5. He chose this boxing costume and was so very pleased about his decision. So was I!



The boys actually love their costumes so much they have worn them every day since we got them last friday. Mark gets fully dressed up and pretends he is a ninja. I already feel I got my moneys worth!
