"Twick-ah-Tweet!!"

The Transformer's Bumblebee (Jonah) & Vampire Merrik!

Merrik looked so cool - compliments of Jared's artwork.
Usually the boys are deadset on being the favored super hero of the day. But we'd borrowed a halloween book from the library with all sorts of how-to's for cool face-painted costumes. Merrik got his heart set on being a vampire & it turned out awesome!
And actually, Jonah wanted to be a skeleton but after the trial run (Jared painted his face a couple
weeks ago to practice) I don't think Jonah liked all the scrubbing involved in cleaning off
the face paint. SO he quickly changed his mind the night of trick-or-treating
and decided to be Bumblebee - an outfit we already had on hand.
Getting ready to head out...
Notice Merrik's very cool slicked back hair. Several days before, after getting out of the bath,
we combed M's hair back like this to get the effect. M loved it! And when he woke up
the next morning, he asked me, "Do I still have my vampire hair?" :)

Merrik, Daddy (the artist) and Jonah!
