Halloween Handiwork
The street we live on is famous throughout the Roanoke Valley for being a great place for trick or treaters. It’s the kind of place parents drop off kids by the carload from other parts of town. Residents of the two block stretch of Stanley Avenue between 24th and 26th street will have upwards of 500 kids in costume knocking on their doors this evening. My kid will be the only one dressed as an Ice Cream Sandwich. For weeks Robert couldn’t make up his mind about a costume. At various times he wanted to be Spider Man, a ghost, a monster and several other things that I don’t remember. I jokingly suggested the ice cream sandwich one evening at the dinner table, and the idea stuck. It’s amazing what you can do with a little felt and foam core.
Excellent costume! Year after year, I’ve tried to convince my son to dress as a fried egg, but he declines every time. He always wants to be some Star Wars character.
Hahaha – pretty cool!
Excellent costume. I miss going trick or treating with my kids. They grow up way too fast…have a great time!
