Trick - or - Treat

Alex had so much trouble deciding what to dress up as this Halloween. He considered donning his skull-and-crossbones gear and going as a pirate.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

He thought about going as a skeleton ...

... that glows in the dark.

Scary, huh?

Alas, he decided to be the Frog Prince . . .

. . . in hopes that he would receive a kiss from a beautiful princess like his neighbor Macy.

Instead, he just got a kiss from mom.

Here, the Frog Prince is en route to see his buddy, Oliver . . .

. . . the Grizzly Bear.

Frog and Bear pose for innumerable pictures.

Doesn't the Frog look thrilled?

Alex's lack of enthusiasm for this little exercise could be attributed to one of three things:

a) his costume;

b) he missed his afternoon nap;

c) the fact that everyone but him seemed to be getting candy.

or maybe it was

d) all of the above.
