Popular Costume

Dressing the boys in their Halloween costumes this year was fun. The first two years were challenging endeavors. Both resisted being costumed and would constantly pull at their dressings. This year however, they screamed “Thomas” and embraced each other in a big victory hug. Davey said “Hurray!” and Benji proclaimed “Awesome!” The boys have been train crazy all year and have become big Thomas the Train fans, so when I saw the first costume at a garage sale back in May I didn’t hesitate to purchase it. I took it directly home to show Sandy. We worried that we might not find another, but found comfort when I spotted a second costume the same day at another local yard sale. This was very fortunate as we saw only one other Thomas costume anywhere over the last five months.
