It is always an adventure picking out Halloween costumes with my children.

Josh wants anything with a big sword or axe.

He brought me several costumes to see if I would okay them. Crazed surgeon with a severed head? Nope. Swamp monster costume at $49.99? Nope.

Finally after bringing me 5 or 6 that I had to turn down he was exasperated and brought me a plain, simple pirate costume. I told him that was fine...but he was a pirate last year...was he sure he wanted to go that route again?

At this point my beloved pulled from behind his back a makeup kit with white pancake makeup and black eyeliner and said, "But how about a ZOMBIE PIRATE?"

So...he's going to be a zombie pirate for Halloween.
