Target Halloween clearance has been great for our Christmas budget. Last year, I bought a Darth Vader costume and knight costumes for both of the monkeys for $6 total. Santa was a bargain shopper!
This year, I found another Darth Vader Costumes (What?! You didn’t know they used twins to play that part in the movie? Of course we need two…) A Jengo Fett costume, and several pirate costumes for Jack’s upcoming birthday party.
The pirate costumes (at $1.75) were quickly donned and the swashbucklers defended our house with gusto. Thanks Captain Hook and Captain Sharky!
Owen’s school’s Book Swap was tonight, so the boys went as pirates. It was a great event where families from the school donated books, and then all of the students were able to take home two books from the Swap. I knew the event was a real success when the monkeys were more excited about the books than the milk and cookies.
