Halloween repac

So this year for halloween I seriously failed. Our grand plans were to have Weston be Little John, Rob be Robin Hood, and me Maid Marian (get it? Awesome right?!) But I seriously slacked on getting costumes together, and all of a sudden Halloween was here and I had nothing put together. We decided we could all pull of mafia last minute, Weston has his Sunday suit that totally would have worked, and we had some friends that let us borrow a fedora. Here's the problem: Weston hates hats. Like a lot. So after trying all day on Tuesday to get him to keep the hat on, I gave up. We were going to go to boo at the zoo that night, and I was so frustrated that I was content to just have him not dress up at all. Well my dear husband came home and decided we would paint his face. The end product was AWESOME, and I'm so glad we did it, but man... putting face paint on a 1 year old is just NOT a good idea. Weston was not happy. However, we went to the zoo, and loved it! Weston got lots of candy (ok lets face it, he got like...2 pieces that he actually ate :) ) and it was really neat to go through the zoo and actually enjoy the lights, instead of running around trying to light them. On Halloween we had a lot of different almost plans, but with Rob not getting off until 6 we ended up just going to my parents house and watched a movie or two.
Next year I swear we will have the coolest costumes ever, I am already brainstorming so that I don't repeat this year. However, our wicked awesome skeleton baby was adorable this year, so it all worked out ok :)
