In Costume
We Supercinski’s don’t plan to do much Halloween-ing, however, we were persuaded to dress up the boys this year. Thomas’ work had a costume contest, so he decided to get in on the action. Not bad for starting it at bedtime the night before! Under his face it says “age progressed photo”.

On Halloween morning, Thomas asked me at breakfast if I planned to bring Josiah up to his office for trick or treating. I had completely forgotten about it, and we had no costume. Later that afternoon, I was putting away Josiah’s clothes, and I saw a possible costume on a hanger! Several months ago, Pa and Gigi had given Josiah an overall set similar to a traditional train conductor, with a matching hat. It was a size too small, but I put it on him and it was close enough. Since it was so warm out, I opted for the no-shirt look.

Surprisingly, he knew exactly what a train conductor does (according to old school Thomas the Train videos), and requested a flag to wave. I made him one, he waved it, and with little prompting, yelled, “All aboard!” over and over and over again.
We made it to the trick or treating at the office, along with all the other tots. Josiah didn’t understand what to do with the shiny wrappers everyone kept handing him, but we took care of those after he went to bed. He did know what to do with the cookie someone gave him, at least the part he didn’t drop in the parking lot.

Awesome last minute costume! Dominic kept handing the candy back to the residents at the nursing home, it was so sweet! He wasn’t interested in it at all! The milk carton should have won a prize! Did it?!!
