A Halloween Story

I got to dress up like a pumpkin today because it is Halloween. I dressed up as a pumpkin last year, too. Mom said when I am a wee bit older and can decide for myself I can pick a new costume. I wonder if I'll still wanna be a pumpkin.
We drove out to see Cousin Amels. She is sure friendly. After a nice and close personal greeting, she showed me where the trick-or-treaters would be knocking and the legs of the table where the candy was stashed.
Helping Cousin Amels become a bee is a two-person job. My aunt and uncle had to work together to make it happen. Then the transition was complete and Cousin Amels was a bee.
I don't know if she found life particularly entertaining as a bee. It was hard to crawl with the big bee belly. And the hat sort of flapped in her face like my bangs flop in my eyes.So she gave up life as a bee and posed for my mom while I played with her Elmo. Cousin Amels doesn't mind sharing her toys.
Time passes quickly at my aunt and uncle's house. Cousin Amels had some dinner and I took off to examine the kitchen. Probably would be a bit easier if my mom would take me to get my hairs cut. Seriously, people, it's gettin' hard to see up in here.

oh my gosh, he looks so mod, like he should be fronting a British band like Kaiser Chiefs or Franz Ferdinand or something. in a pumpkin costume.

Long hair, short hair, bee or pumpkin... those are some adorable kidlets! Henry is so freaking lucky to have a cousin so close (in age and proximity). Fun times!

Pumpkin costumes are great, Henry. You couldn't have picked better yourself.
Of course, the bumble bee is stinkin' cute.
