Stormtroopers, Power Rangers, Pilots, Scarecrow, and the Great Pumpkin…
These are just SOME of the things we saw (and dressed up as) for Halloween this year.
The boys are now almost 5…so Halloween is SO much more fun now.
We went to the Franklin, TN Pumpkin Festival last weekend and it was SO nice.
All the kids (and lots of parents) were dressed up in costume. There was lots of food and fun.
It was a great day.
I thought I’d post pics of the boys and their costumes and adventures IN the costumes.
🙂
Please indulge a daddy with the obligatory showing off of his kids.
We found this bunch of Stormtroopers (and lady Boba Fett) at the monument in the center of town.
Logan HAD to have his picture taken with them…but Brendan was cautious and wouldn’t leave my side.
Something about that one on the far left I think was shifty. Brendan didn’t trust him…
 
Soon afterwards…we met this “friendly” Stormtrooper and Brendan was instantly his best friend.
The Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz came by…
And then we took a ride on the “Great Pumpkin” from Charlie Brown’s Halloween special.
Again…a great time was had by all…
I hope you had a great day and hope you don’t mind me sharing things like this with you every once and a while.
Have a great weekend.

Aw man, that’s so cute, and awesome, too! Your boys are adorable!
And that one costume just revives my great desire for Mandalorian armor.
Aw~~ they’re so cute! I’m glad you guys had fun!
They’re adorable!
Those are some neat photos, it looks like you guys had a lot of fun.
Thanks for sharing, and thanks for making this wonderful comic!
Power Rangers and Stormtroopers…two groups with just as much combat effectiveness.
Just wait until they get a few years older, then the costumes take on a lot more realism.
When they hit college, the costumes need the hollywood f/x…and you can cut a lot of costs there if you know the tricks!
Case in point…

The costume I traded my computer skills for with a costumer. The bracers and headpiece I did myself. The lodestone is sculpted, the wig is off-the-shelf.
So Adorable! One of mine is the same age-ish- and his favorite super hero would have fit in nicely with your little ones. Glad you’re taking a well deserved break to hang out with the most crucial parts of your life!
Female Jango Fett. Figured I might chime in with a nice little geek comment.
Thanks so much all.

Yup I agree with everyone above, your kids are just super!
But where the “scruffy mug” of yourself you have promised us in a weak moment some time ago…? 😉
Ah, never mind btw… Found you via Google, at dFX…
Now I have my curiosity satisfied! 🙂
I love the above pics; they’re so cute (and their costumes look great to) ^__^
Oh and congrats on “Hyperactive”. I can’t wait to see it air.
Those pictures are so cute! What a great festival too! I bet that was a lot of fun.
Thanks for sharing. =^_^=
Navy fighter pilot – that rocks! I guess he’s too young to be a tomcat driver.
(Guess who used to be a Navy air traffic controller)
You know it’s amazing how many people said NAVY…and we thought they were just crazy.
But now I’m thinking…it’s really a Navy pilot outfit?
Can anyone confirm?
The kids are so cute, it makes me happy to little kids having fun. ^_^
Haha, we should just be grateful that kids just “know” who not to trust sometimes.
Wow those are really great costumes! The Scarecrow is just awesome.
Kiwi: “Yoink!”

Well, duh, it does say “NAVY F-18” on the blue and white tag on the right side of his chest…! 😉
Good taste in combat aircraft. I prefer the 18 to the 16…the 18 is more forgiving, easier to manuver, and the E variant can do mach.
You really need to learn to pay attention to the words on their clothes BEFORE they become teenagers.
