The boys wanted to dress up as Jedis this year for Halloween. Matt found an Anakin Skywalker costume he liked, and Nolan wanted to be Obi-Wan Kenobi.
We wanted to get them Jedi robes to put over their costumes, but the robes were $30 each at the costume store. Dennis pulled out the sewing machine, figured out how to wind the bobbin, and sewed the boys these nifty felt Jedi robes. I'm impressed, because I still have no idea how to wind a bobbin.
I took these pictures before we headed out to Zoo Boo at the Erie Zoo. I have no pictures of the actual trick-or-treating event, mostly because my camera doesn't work well in the dark. They were really cute together.
I have to admit, though, that I am glad the craziness of the trick-or-treating season is behind us. The sugar highs and constant party atmosphere created two very wound-up little boys!
Here's to a quieter November, with its gray days and much more sedate holiday of Thanksgiving.

He did a really great job! I was impressed - I am useless with a sewing machine. I make great cookies, but am horrible at sewing!
