BusyDad Halloween Pics
Wednesday, October 31, 2007 A fun time was had by all (well, maybe not the dog). Candy was plentiful and the weather was warm. The Force was with us.
Was it worth buying all sorts of random stuff from eBay, Jo-Ann Fabrics, the Army Navy Store, Home Depot and Chick's Sporting Goods (a real police duty belt, an airline seatbelt belt, a kid's karate outfit, athletic tape, nylon webbing, spray paint etc.), discovering I can't sew worth a damn, and taking 2 hours off of work (which I just had to make up now from home after trick or treating) for just a few hours of dress up fun? HELL YEAH!!

Great outfits!
Those pictures are priceless! Well worth the effort and time off from work. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun.
Hope you gave your dog LOTS of cookies...what a good sport!
Ahhh classic!!!
Too cool! Best costumes I have seen this Halloween season...The close #2 was Batman and Robin running through the Baltimore airport giving everyone high fives. :)
oh no! For some reason I can't see the photos!!!
must say I just don't get the whole halloween thing, but if I did, then you guys would rock !
Chick's Sporting Goods!!! I haven't heard that name since I was a kid, growing up in Southern California!! That place is awesome!!
Great costumes. Well worth the effort expended. Tell you dog we've done far more embarrassing things to our dogs. (There are four of them -- how can you NOT dress them up for Halloween?)
you totally outdid me!! you rule! kickass dad, no doubt!
ROFL!! great post!
You just totally lived my husband's dream Halloween. Too bad our daughter wanted to be Hannah Montana! :)
It looks to me like the Busy Dad had mor fun than his son. HA HA
Great pictures!
You certainly had fun!
I love how the dog's front paws are in place, prim and proper and he's posing it. But his face does look like, "See what I have to put up with to get food and a warm place to sleep?"
You are awesome. Period. Funny stuff and great pics. You rule.
That is one of the best kid/parent/pet costumes I have seen in years. It looks like you had a ton of fun and it is rewarding to see the smiles. Nothing is better than interaction with your kids at this kind of level. I am sure in a few years you both will laugh about this and remember it fondly.
I love these pictures! And how crafty are you? Great Job!
