Halloween Costume Hits & Misses--One Mom's Tale

Fall is here! Pumpkin spice this, cinnamon that, pumpkin patch pictures and of course, Halloween costumes.

Halloween costumes are either hits or misses. When they're hits, they're big hits and when they're misses, they're catastrophic failures.

I've had my share of both.


Miss: Boy Wonder as a pumpkin, 2002.


Miss: Boy Wonder as a court jester, 2003. Funny how? Like a clown funny? Do I amuse you?


Miss: Boy Wonder as a racecar driver, 2004. You can almost tell what he's about to say.


Hit: Boy Wonder as Thomas, 2005. Toot toot!


Hit: Boy Wonder as Spiderman, 2006.


Hit: Boy Wonder as Venom, 2007.


Miss: Little BooBoo as a pumpkin, 2007. Clearly unhappy with the hand-me-down, clearly I didn't learn the first time.


Hit: Boy Wonder as a stormtrooper, 2008.


Hit: Little BooBoo as Darth Vader, 2008. Because nothing on this earth is funnier than a baby Darth Vader.


Hit: Boy Wonder as Darth Vader, 2009. Boy Wonder, I am your mother (with iffy taste in Halloween costumes).


Miss: Little BooBoo as Little BooBoo, 2009...flat out refusing to wear his Yoda costume.
