We are getting better with the Halloween thing. In the past couple of years our daughter was the avian flu and a ladybug. Last year we tried as a family to be fried rice but our daughter refused to climb inside a modified pillow (rice). So we knew this year that a big puffy Hello Kitty head was a gamble.
Still, she was the one who wanted Hello Kitty, before she wanted to be a princess. Elysia bought some plush fabric and this is the great job she did. I thought it would be cute if we all got dressed up as a family, but as a friend has pointed out, the actual sight of a grown man in a Hello Kitty head is a bit creepy. It only helped a little when I shaved my 3-day beard.
Still, we will probably venture out together for the costume parades. I just won’t be wearing pink short-alls. Just a trench-coat.
In the meantime, I still have a giant Kikkoman label from the costume attempt last year if you want to go as a bottle of soy sauce. Just let me know and it is yours.
