This is my little 4 year old. He wanted to be Joker this year. Gone are the days of cute little animal costumes. I guess I always have my little girl to dress up for a year or two. Her ear infection made it impossible to put her through the misery of dressing her up for Halloween. I am determined to make a chicken costume for one of my kids. I have already purchased the white boa for the feathers about 3 years ago. You just wait, Shelby will be a chicken next year before she starts having an opinion. Well...she already has one but she can't argue back for very long right now.Both the kids are on antibiotics right now. Shelby for her first ear infection and Harlan for impetigo (contagious skin rash). Harlan had never had an ear infection so this was my first experience at it. What a horrible thing for a kiddo to go through. I pray that this isn't the start of more trouble with multiple ear infections. You hear so many horror stories.
On a lighter note.... Rich is now a Shriner. If you are not familiar with this organization, they are usually known in the community to help children's burn and orthopedic hospitals. They are also know to wear those big red hats with tassels and ride the mini motorcycles in parades. Rich hasn't chosen which unit he wants to join but he will probably stick with something that is a little less flashy. Legion of Honor is more his style. He can quietly carry the flags in parades. I am now a Shrine Lady and proud. The organization has many older members so they need younger blood to help out with the many things they do. I didn't realize how many until I attended the Fall ceremony with Rich a few weeks ago.

That costume rocks. I cannot wait for my kids to dress up in scarey bloodly costumes. I am sick. I know.
I totally dig that Rich is now a Shriner. Wade's uncle Terry is a very active Shriner Clown. Stick with the flags, Rich. Way easier.
