Super heroes

Everyone secretly wants to be a super hero. And the best thing about being a superhero, besides the awesome super powers, is a cape. Even adults like to play dress up.
Here's Nate's Halloween costume from a few years ago. He was Pooperman. (He wanted everyone to be some kind of uperman, but we couldn't think up enough good ones.) This has become a classic costume in our house.
The plunger (new) was full of unwrapped Tootsie Rolls!

His cape got shut in the door when he went to get gas and he just about went feet up at the gas station. (That's why Edna 'E' Mode from the Incredibles said, "No Capes!")

Isaac being Zorro:
Aspen as Red Riding Hood:

And a warrior princess (with a cape) another year:
Toby as a vampire:
Isaac was Batman another year, with a cape:Capes are a necessity. So I whipped up a few to give for gifts (Hazel's friends seem to be having a lot of birthdays lately.)
I'll leave you with this classic Isaac pic:
Capes are the only accessory needed!

  1. How true. Come to think about it, everyone fights over the one cape that we have.

    **Pooperman, I'll have to remember that one.

  2. Oops, wasn't finished. I was going to add, that goes right along with Kirsten's "crapper man."

  3. Maybe Jake can be crapper man and nate can be pooper man together. That would be awesome.

  4. I remember the year "Pooper Man" was revealed at your Halloween party. If I remember right, Nate could only find brown sweat pants to go with his costume in the "Ladies" section of Walmart. I thought he would want everyone to know. Also, I love that the last picture in your post reminded me that your old house had the front door with the "central door knob". Classic!
