Another fun (but chilly) Estes Halloween in the books. Coop dressed up as "Aladar", a dinosaur from a movie released in the early 2000's. He discovered the flick when we went to WA and stayed with Aunt Jennifer over 2 years ago. Not many kids know who Aladar is. I think the movie went straight to video when it was released ;). Thanks to EBay, the costume was easier to come by then I would have thought.
Cruz was "Super Hero Tuxedo Man" with his best buddy, Rocco. They were actually Harry and Lloyd from the movie, Dumb and Dumber. They of course, didn't know this but their Mother's sure ate it up. An added bonus is that Rocco's mom majored in costume design! This is probably the last year I can have any type of influence in what either of our kid's costumes will be and I went with it. Before you question my motives, I'll have you know that Cruz LOVED his costume and still wants to wear it daily. They had quite the fan club too. Numerous people wanted to take the duo's picture. Coop jumped in several of the pictures too. Cruz and Rocco quickly learned that people could take their picture but they wanted candy in return. Smart kids!
Coop also had a super fun class Halloween party that we all got to be a part of. I've included a few pics of his kindergarten parade as well.








"Ninja Turtle" fan club. These girls asked to take their picture and shrieked like giddy High School girls that D & D is one of their favorite movies. Who knew? I don't think they were even born when the movie came out. It just goes to show that classic potty humor knows no age. The boys were just as star struck to be surrounded by TMNT's. Totally win-win.
