A Batty Halloween


This year, the fabulous Gramma made all bat costumes.  Abby was BatGirl, Jack Batman, Finn Robin and Ryley Catwoman (and Logan was Captain America - which he announced consistently in the cutest most confident and simple tone ever - Gramma didn't make his costume)

In order to be superheros of course one has to have a powerful pose.  Everyone felt the power.

Oh Abby. How I fear I'm failing you. You are so sweet and fun with your brothers and cousins.  You shoulder so much responsibility to keep spirits up.  The kids we hang out around are all the generation after you.  If you promise to drive super super safe always with extreme extra promises - I'll promise to let you go out alot with friends when you have your freedom to do so.  It's okay that they've all bonded first - you'll be the new and exciting one they finally get to hang out with.

But there is an upside too.  You are the surpreme cousin.  You are loved.  You are looked up to.  You are absolutely adored.  And the truth is you CAN shoulder this.  You are exactly the right girl to be in this position because you really are that great.  Also... you have a great time.  

And yes I know this is a tad heavy to be in the Halloween post.  I love this picture of Abby.



Finn had JUST fixated on a classmate's spiderman doll and so when we ran into him (he was actually another neighborhood boy dressed up) it was pretty awesome. 



Finn could barely drag his bag.  His only saving grace was that he asked Zoozy every single doorway ever so nicely, "Would you please hold my bag?"
