We had a fabulous Halloween. Holly and Sam are set for life on candy. Holly was a witch and Sam was a pirate. Sam took a ton of convincing. He loves to dress up in Holly's princess clothes but a pirate he wasn't so sure about. Actually he wanted to be Frank from Cars but I couldn't figure out how to make that work. Finally the night of the ward Halloween Carnival I told him that his friends Nathan and Josh would be wearing costumes and he decided that he would wear his. You've got to love peer pressure.
At the carnival his costume began to change. He met another little boy dressed like Buzz lightyear (Sam's currant love). From them on he was no longer just a pirate he was Buzz the pirate (and he told everyone he came in contact with). If you asked him previous to the carnival what a pirate says he would say ARRRR! After and during the carnival it was "To Bifinity and Beyond" (one hand raised in the air). Sam stalked the little boy dressed as Buzz for the rest of the evening. Buzz the pirate carried over to trick or treating last night. Instead of saying "Trick or Treat" at every door Sam would introduce himself. The cute college girls would open the door and Sam would say "I am Buzz the pirate" He would then thank them for the candy by mumbling something about Buzz the pirate being thankful.
Rob and I were thoroughly entertained by two cute kids carrying on a fun tradition. Now what do I do with all of this candy?
