Halloween: The Costumes

Jack has been talking about rockets a lot this month, so that's what I made for his costume this year.

I struggled with the attached wings and booster rocket rig.  I should have attached the rocket pack directly to the shirt so the straps didn't pull up his shirt all day.  By the end of the night I clipped the wings off so the straps could fit backpack style.  That would have been a good fix too.  Oh well, live and learn. 

Pictures were tricky because he looks down when walking through leaves.  Also he has a cold:

So his energy was low all day.  But we got a few good shots :-)


Ben dressed as the Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time.  I was a plain old witch. 

After some launches, Jack wanted to play hide and seek.  We played one round, then got ready to trick-or-treat.
