We were visiting my family in Ohio during Halloween. Logan's cousins, Quinn and Tyson, bit off him and were Mario and Luigi, while he was Toad. It was a very Super Mario Bros. Halloween.
Logan had to wear a bodysuit under his vest due to the crispy Ohio weather, so we took a few more pics when we got home that are more true to the Toad look.
I let Logan play with my little stuffed Toad, even tho he has a big stuffed Toad of his own. Mine seems more baby-sized. It's in the pictures for comparison's sake. Anyway, Logan really likes Toad, but I wanted him to be Toad for Halloween because I think only a baby can pull off the costume.
Quinn dragged me out trick-or-treating for like three hours. I am now embarrassed for a large percentage of adults, because so many people said, "Let me guess--Joe the Plumber!" as Quinn would approach their houses. He was carrying a plunger, which granted, Mario really never does in the games, but still. Joe the Plumber? What kid would do that? And even if suddenly kids did enjoy the political costumes, wouldn't they try to, I don't know, look like Joe the Plumber? Bald head, etc.? UGH.
Sometimes, another adult would chime in with "No, you idiot, that's Mario" once some retarded adult asked if Quinn was Joe the Plumber, but still. One person actually then said, "God, I am an idiot. Of course that's Mario." So that was good.
Quinn's costume was a big hit with all the other kids, though. Lots of shout-outs in faux Italian accents.
My Mom made all of the costumes.
