"Or Treat"... No Thanks, Chocolate One?

Trick Or Treat!

My 3 Jedi Knights headed out to score some sweet candy. I couldn't resist their cuteness and handed out some candy before they left to get them started.

I really wanted to let Twin #1 and Twin # Other One to be something cute this year. Maybe a Buzz and a Woody. (Or even a quick Google search would have revealed more twin boy ideas.) But I was trumped by the light sabers.

Little Guy has had an on again, off again relationship with Star Wars for the last couple of years. This year he decided that he wanted to be Obi-Wan Kenobi (from the 1st one).

He asked me tons of Anakin / Darth Vader questions before he decided on which Jedi he wanted to be. I think he was trying to decide between the two Jedi Knights and didn't like how Anakin became Darth Vader.

And Brig teased him once about how he was going to need a beard for his costume and ever since then he has been quick to let anyone know who asks that he is Obi-Wan from the 1st episode.

I realize that we didn't add the trademark long pony tail, but I don't think Mason has noticed that yet. Because I didn't want to have to find doll hair.

And once there is one Jedi Knight walking around with a light saber, then you have two more -- especially when you have two little brothers who try to do everything their big brother does.

And so I enlisted my favorite tailor and we got some brown fabric, some shirts to wear under the cloaks, and fabric paint for the belts and we were set.

The boys just wore pants they already owned. Thank goodness for that Bernina sewing machine.

So my three Jedi Knights are adorable.

I even talked Brig (or Superman) into making me a sweet pumpkin applique for an orange t-shirt.

Did you check out Brig's post about his Halloween detail?

And luckily my boys came back with treats to share. Yum.

Brig's Additions:

The Little guys did such a good job collecting their loot.  When we got home Wife noticed that Little Guy and Twin # Other One had more candy than Twin #1.

I had to explain that Twin #1 was a model trick-or-treater, he would say "Trick-Or-Treat" politely, and then say "Thank You" as he was leaving.

Little Guy was pretty good, but sometimes missed the "Thank You".

That brings us to Twin# Other One.  For those of you that know him, you understand why we call him Poker-Face, because it is ironic, very very ironic.  This kid could not hide his facial expressions if he went out as a ghost, and used 2 sheets.

He would walk up and say "Or Treat" omitting the "Trick" because why give the people an option, he is all about efficiency.  And then when they would hand him something, he would look it over, and then either put it in his bag, OR HAND IT BACK AND SAY "NO THANKS!, CHOCOLATE ONE?"

If heaven forbid, they put it in his bag for him, he would open the bag, give it a good long look while trying to isolate the latest addition, and then either turn around running and saying "Thank You", or he would stare down the candy giver and say "More Please" or "Another One."  

It was hilarious.

And for those of you that want a glimpse of the real Man of Steel, look no further.  Ok, Man of Steel after going on a 5 year bender and eating the Pillsbury Dough Boy.

Best Halloween EVER
