Halloween has never been my favorite holiday, but I must admit I have warmed up to it since our grandchildren joined in the festivities. Both of my children have October birthdays and each had at least two parties every year (school, family and sometimes neighborhood). By the time Halloween came around, I was out of creative energy. They were told to scrounge around to find whatever they could for a costume.
My three grandchildren, however, had fancy costumes that did not come from the dress-up box. Three year-old Alastair was resplendent in his Incredibles costume, his current favorite Super Hero. It arrived at Nana’s house while he was here a month ago. Thank heavens for Express Delivery!I got big points (read lots of hugs and kisses) for pulling that one off!
Alastair Incredible flexing his muscles at the office of his adoring paternal grandmother, “Oma.” Â There was an office party for the children and he loved it.
His mother had to hide it after they returned home so that it would still be wearable by Halloween. And it was.
