Dylan and Evan AKA: The SUPER Mario Brothers! (PICS)
« on: October 29, 2007, 07:11:41 PM »
For those of you that remember, Mario and Luigi are classic Nintendo characters. I typically dress my boys as some sort of duo, and we chose Mario and Luigi this year!

I purchased the hats on ebay and made the overalls and treatbags. I even dyed the green shirt since I couldn't find one anywhere! The only problem is that I think the moustaches are too big!!!  :D

Oh yes I remember the Nintendo and Atari days!

Great job on the outfits Jessica, you are so talented!

Did the boys think the treatbags were big enough though?? ;)

Too cute Jessica!!!!! You did a fabulous job!



I just noticed this year that even though we come up with the ideas, the execution and work for these fab costumes, our kids get all the candy? :D

Those are too cute!  You did a great job on them.  Smack myself in the forehead, I never thought about doing anything like that when my twin boys were small.

Love the costumes Jessica. And the mustaches are perfect. They add to the "cuteness" of the getup. Good job.

Great costumes and what cute kids!  The mustaches are perfect, you did a great job.
I miss the days of dressing up our two boys.  They are now 24 and 26 but still enjoy Halloween.  One of them worked in a haunted house this year.  The other is in a band and dressed for his "gig" on Saturday night.

Thank you for all of the comments.

Thankfully, this year is much better than last year. We came home today to find our house in perfect shape--no damage and nothing stolen. I can't believe that burglary was one year ago already! We've been in a weird mood today remembering it.

I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!!!!

Jessica, your boys are GIANT compared to the last time I saw them.  ;D Love those costumes! And they are CUTE little boys!

BTW, I still play that old game (Super Mario III on the original Nintendo Game System). My kids make me play it... honest!  ;)

Hope you're not living the Sugar Hell (as I am).
