Fall fun...

In less than a year of marriage, I learned that Patrick should never be sent to the Halloween store without supervision. We've been struggling with our costumes for this year's Halloween party, so we began to brain storm last weekend on our way to Dallas. Despite about using half of the trip to brain storm, we were stumped. While out shopping with my parents, we bought Brinkley a hot dog costume and Ranger a chicken hat. You can only imagine how thrilled our dogs were to be dressed up as a hot dog and a chicken. Since the dogs had their outfits, Patrick was inspired....


So tonight I come home to this:





No your not seeing double, but Patrick and Ranger both have chicken hats. Here's Ranger side profile, if you don't believe me:

Patrick was so proud of his purchase, and he couldn't believe that Party City had this hat for three years ( I can't imagine why.... ). So of course my response was "did you get a good deal on it?" The answer was no... he paid full price for his chicken hat. I give the hat 2 weeks until some way some how the hat will experience the wrath of Ranger. Just like the 2 office chairs, 3 doggie doors, 3 couch cushions, and numerous stuffed dog toys, this too will just be a $22 dog toy at the end of the day.
