They boys picked out their pumpkins and got ready to carve.
Tobias is still too young to draw, so he used our push-in plastic pieces.
Here are the other boys' carvings. Left to right those are the creative works of Benjamin, David John, Elijah and Gabriel. Lights on...
...and lights off.
The boys LOVE the movie Ghostbusters. David John wanted to be the "smarshmallow man" but we talked him into being Ray Stantz. Here are all of the costumes. The boys helped make their own proton packs and I pieced the rest of the costumes together. I made the Slimer costume out of a green pillowcase, a ball cap and some felt. I'm pretty much MacGyver.
Here they are all geared up and ready to catch a ghost. You've got Egon Spengler (who apparently goes cross-eyed when you take his glasses off), Winston Zeddemore (I already know that Benjamin does not have dark enough skin. The boys told me several times.), Peter Venkman ("Ray, what did you do Ray?") and Ray Stantz ("I thinked of the smarshmallow man!").
Oh yeah, they're packing.
He's small, he's green, he's Slimer! Too bad he's so cute. He's not exactly scary.
The whole gang loved trick-or-treating and our neighbors loved seeing our gang of Ghostbusters.
They got a sick amount of candy and were on a sugar high for days. I think there was probably as much sugar in those Halloween buckets as there was in the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.
Those costumes are AMAZING! Love it!
