Farewell Lobster

Halloween is probably my favorite holiday.  I enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas, too, but Halloween will always hold a special place in my heart.  Now that I have a child, it's even more fun for me.  Last year (as you can see in my profile picture) Richard was an adorable lobster.  Everyone loved the costume.  But now, it's time for it to go.

Richard has long since outgrown the lobster, so on Saturday we're taking it to a costume exchange in Ames.  Someone else will take the lobster home; and we will, hopefully, find something cute for Richard to wear this year.  While part of me will be sad to see it go, I hope it will make someone else happy.  Now I just need to decide what I'm going to do for my own costume!
