Ummm no, I wanna be a pirate!

About the time that Griffin was born I was already thinking about cool Halloween costume themes for my boys. You know, ketchup and mustard, peas and carrots, sleepy and dopey dwarfs... (I'm a big fan of super cheeeezee)
This year I had a grand plan of a Little Lion and a Little Tiger (jungle cats for those of you who don't see a theme there). So I got a lion costume for Griffin, and a tiger costume for Roman. I was pleased as punch!

So when I showed Roman his tiger costume he replied... "umm.... no, I wanna be a pirate!"

I was speechless. This little darling boy of mine, has an OPINION! When did that happen? Sigh!

My reply: "Well, your gonna be a tiger...and like it"

So yesterday, with the encouragement of a great friend and a great mom, Elise, I got Roman a pirate costume. It's even kinda scary. So no theme. :-( But that's ok.

And next year Griffin I suppose will acquire some sort of opinion. And I'll be subjected to years and years of evil, scary, bloody, gory Halloween costumes that have no theme what so ever. SIGH.

Pictures to follow at a later date.

Happy Halloween Everyone!
