All Hallows Eve 2009

Hello Gorgers,

Halloween (my favourite holiday) is fast approaching so it is time to unveil this year's costume. Here is a quick recap of my first two Halloweens.

Year 1 - Mom and Dad got me this sweet Gorilla costume. Dad took a lot of heat because people said he was projecting his own costume choices on me, but I liked it anyway. I wasn`t very mobile in it, but that was ok becuase I wasn`t very mobile out of it either back then.





Last year I understood the Halloween concept a little more clearly (at least I knew that candy was involved), yet my folks still got to pick my costume. The elephant costume they chose was cute and I liked it, I just didn`t like the head peice so much. All the same, my Dad had fun with photoshop at my expense.





This year was the first year that I got to pick my own costume, and while my parents made a number of suggestions (fireman, astronaut, that guy from A Clockwork Orange) in the end I chose to be a monkey. Many of you will want to think my Dad had some hand in this, but I came up with monkey all on my own and I stuck with it the dozen or so times they asked me what I wanted to be. Here are the pics. I hope you like them. I think this one will net me a biig candy pay off.







Happy Halloween gorgers!

You're going to have to learn to walk on your hands (or at least all fours) to do as a Halloween trick. Bet you'll get lots of candy this year!
