Chicken Butt....




....This year when Xander and I went costume shopping I fully expected that he would be insistent about which costume he wanted. To my delight he passed up Thomas the Train costumes, Lightning McQueen costumes and the like. He really didn't seem interested in any costume at all. Even when I explained (in case he forgot....he's only 3 you know.) that he needed to pick out a costume in order to go trick-or-treating and get ......CANDY. That didn't grab his attention either.
So, I decided to take full advantage of what will probably be the last time I will be able to pick out a costume that will thoroughly embarrass him when he brings his first girl friend home and I break out the baby pictures. As you can see I chose a fuzzy, cuddly, absolutely adorable chicken costume. His first girlfriend will think it's the cutest......and every girlfriend after that will too.
Sadly, I didn't get to parade him around for Halloween. I had to work in the lab, but Tony took him out to Onsted to visit Poppy and with every intention of going trick-or-treating. Apparently he was serious when he said he didn't care about the.... CANDY. He informed Tony and Clint that he was "tired" and wanted to play with "Poppy trains".
Okay then......fair enough I guess.
end.
