6yo is Rocket Raccoon
10yo, well to be honest, I'm not even sure what he's dressing as this year. It's somebody from some xBox game and I can't remember what. Something about a soldier and a smallpox outbreak.
11yo decided he wanted to be a steampunk guy this year. As an Engineer, I was pretty impressed he decided on that. On the downside, there is very little costume stuff out there for kids, it's all adult sizes. I was able to score some knee-high leather boots with some buckles and a funky vest at Goodwill that worked pretty well for his Halloween orchestra concert...we just won't tell him that they are women's boots and vest.
Unfortunately the older two are with their mother for Halloween this year so I won't get to see how their costumes came out. Wife likes to go all out with the decorations...neighborhood kids make 2 or 3 trips to our house during the night, not for more candy, but just to see the house...so they were bummed that they weren't going to get to see everything. I told them they were welcome to come over once they were done trick-or-treating in their neighborhood, but even though the ex-'s house is only a few miles away, I'm not going to hold my breath.
