Costumes

You may not realize this, but Halloween is approaching.

For months, Cameron has been telling us he wanted to be a wrecking-ball crane this year, after the smashing success of last year's Hot Wheels car costume. Katy told me that it was my year to create a cardboard miracle, and I really had no idea how I was going to manage it.

Then something good happened. A few weeks ago, we toured the local fire station with one of our neighbors who works there. Suddenly Cameron wants to be a firefighter for Halloween.

I'm saved!

Hat. check.
Boots. check
Slicker. check
Axe. check (plastic, don't worry)
Fire extinguisher. check
Hose. not desired (I suggested it, was shot down)

Ladder?

What will Claire be?

I am not hauling a ladder around.

Claire is going to be a fairy. The costume is already in-house.
