practice run

Our Rec Center sponsors an annual downtown trick-or-treat parade for all the kids (and some adults!) to come show off their cool costumes for Halloween... so this year we used Friday afternoon as a trial run for tonight!

So here we have our S.W.A.T. Officer and Batman

out to save the world from bad guys, apparently:

as a side note, my annual thank you goes out to Andrea for the awesome Halloween bags!!!

So of course, Mr. Social found his buddies the Werewolf and Prince of Persia and was not seen again until his bag was full!

So I hung close to Batman and made him pose with a few of his friends, too...

Here he is with a Vampire - and getting a little uncomfortable in his mask & cape:

And here he is checking out Spiderman's supercool getup...

(see how we gave up on the mask & cape all together by now!)
While we waited for the S.W.A.T. officer to return from his mission, Batman checked out some of his earnings:
Here's the big guy coming in from the haul...
... and once we got home, here is my kitchen floor!
Not too shabby for a practice run. Can't wait to see how they do tonight!
