Happy Halloween (said in a robotic tone!)

Straight from the science lab - here are the master minds responsible for the robotic creatures you are about to meet. As in real life, we are the ones who made these little machines, but we cannot always control them as smoothly as we would like to (ha,ha)




Fitting the head gear for proper electronic reception....

And preparing for first robotic mission...to win the costume contest at school for the most original recycled costume....

 

 

 

 


The boys got off to school and the next assignment....prepare Robot Piersen - one happy little boy to be able to participate!

 


Final and most rewarding mission: obtain candy!!!! We took a few moments for pics and practice postures...and off we went!

 

 


You have never seen a little boy more anxious to participate like his big brothers than little Pierce. He was so adorable and so very excited to become a robot. He got out there in the neighborhood trying to walk along and keep up with the huge crowd of trick-or-treaters....He quickly got left behind....and his helmet kept falling off - but he would patiently bend down to retrieve it and continue on his way!

We had a super fun day with a lot of laughs. Hope you had a Happy Halloween too!

Care- Those costumes are amazing. You put a lot of detail into them. Genius! Loved the pictures. So glad you guys had fun. Love you!

If only you could get your hair to stand on end, then you could run for the neighbourhood "mad scientist!" As is stands, you do make a believeable normal scientist. :)

love the robot costumes! so cute! and i can not believe the price of pumpkins. in fiji they were cheap because they used them for eating year round, pumpkin curry is very popular. we had our pumpkins on the porch during halloween time and a lady came to our door asking for money, food, clothing etc, and asked if she could have one of our pumpkins. . . now that's a paradiagm shift! very thrifty and thoughtful and UNIQUE too, to have a two faced pumpkin, you're gonna need a bigger pumpkin when all three boys want to do faces :)

Too too cute!!! I was glad when Logan decided to be a "swimmer" He donned his swimsuit, flippers, mask and snorkel. Easiest costume I've ever had to put together. We did the robot thing a few years ago.l..lots of fun...lots of work!! Love you

This is so cute! I love the robot pics! (I am behind reading and just getting to it!)
You are so creative! And when I was reading to Dougle his comment about if it was okay if the tooth fairy saw him without his shirt on, Dougle said, "The tooth fairy is a girl?" So, even he is learning things from your blog! Ha!
