Halloween 2008

Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.
Or.. for those of your unfamiliar with the awesomeness of the Dukes of Hazzard.. a policeman.
I'm the "Death of Analog TV". (It's funny at work.)
Tony's a Stick Man.
But the flash reveals his true identity. The kids in the neighborhood loved him.
Tony took Max and Lucas to his station for their annual trick-or-treating festivities. A little joking around with the handcuffs in between stops.
Then all the employees' kids gathered in the studio to be on TV. Unfortunately, Max and Lucas didn't get on the air. Tony put them in the front row, but the camera guys never panned right far enough to see them. Lucas's knee and boot managed to get in one of the shots. And Max's toy gun kept going off during the chit-chat part of the newscast. Oh well, maybe next year.
The kids came to my station next for some trick-or-treating from some nice ladies I work with. I failed to take any pictures of that.
Then we came back home, had dinner and went out into the neighborhood.
They had a great time ringing doorbells and asking for candy. And they got lots of it!
It was a long day... and they were pooped by the end.

Then we all went to Aunt Kaci's for our final stop, but the kids couldn't stay awake for the car ride over there.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this a great Halloween!!

Did you teach Max how to say it? "Roscooooooooooooooooe P Collllltrane!" You all look awesome! I have always wanted to be a stick person--so I could look skinny! ha! Your costumes are all excellent--as they always are. Each year you step it up a little bit more!
