Halloweenie?

I love Halloween. Maybe it's because my birthday is in October, who knows.

I love to make costumes for the boys. Brody's first Halloween he was Charlie Brown. Brody's second and Eli's first they were skeletons. This year, I was so stoked b/c they're finally the age where they might love it! I'd been toying with ideas, thoughts and finally came up with it at the last minute! The boys were going to be two members from the group Run DMC. They have these amazingly horrible track suits so I did some research and used some items from around the house. We had a costume party on Saturday and put their ensembs together. Awesome. No one really got it but I literally laughed ALL DAY LONG.

So, fast forward to tonight. I'm ready to put the boys in their costumes and hit the neighborhood. EPIC meltdown. Brody didn't want to wear his hat or awesome gold chain (a la my necklace) and Eli was running around like a banshee.

Halloween sucks this year. My kids want no part of it. To top it off, I didn't take any photos on Saturday so I have no documentation of my awesome idea.
