Really?

So our ward's trunk or treat is tonight and I am scrambling to get costumes pulled together at the last minute. Ugh. I had a few from previous years stashed in a tote in the garage. I was seriously counting on them to save the day and then my boys informed me that they already wore them and that they are NOT "cool" anymore. Really? Because that's what you're gonna wear whether you like it or not.! No, I didn't really say that. I felt bad. They have worn those costumes every year for the last 3 years. Crap. Now I've got to get seriously creative.

#1's Costume- A cereal killer
T-Shirt
opened boxes of mini cereal's
fake blood
large spoon covered in blood

#2's costume-Construction worker
$1 construction workers hat from target
flannel plaid shirt
holy jeans
lace up work boots
toy hammer hanging out of his belt

#3's costume- Skeletor
Recycled costume from brothers
white face paint
black face paint

Phew. Crisis averted. Everyone is happy and I had to do minimal work. Now all I have to do is make an amazing batch of chili to win the chili making contest and some bread for my mother in law. Really?
