It’s that time of the year again when princesses, pirates, fairies and superheroes roam the earth! Yes, it’s Halloween!
I still remember Hannah’s first Halloween when she dressed up as Big Bird. And over the years, she has been a Cinderella, a fairy, cupid, and other very girly characters.
They love dressing up.
For Jonah’s first Halloween, he dressed as a tiger. Then he was Superman, Robin and various other superheroes. But this year, Hannah and Jonah have decided on a rather unique costume for Halloween. They have decided to be a juice box! Of course, this is no ordinary juice box – it’s a box that they designed and made together.

We took a large shipping box, cut a large hole on top for the head and two holes on the sides for arms. They each made a sign with their favorite juice – Mango for Hannah and Orange for Jonah. Then taped the signs on the front and back. Finally, we used duct tape and created a straw. They were thrilled to make this one of a kind costume and have been prancing around the house asking us if we would like to take a sip. They even joked that they could stop for a drink when they get thursty from all the Trick or Treating.

In the end, Hannah opted out of being Mango juice and will be Super Girl for Halloween. I suppose she is already “too old” to be something so silly. But Jonah is still faithful to his creation! So, if you see a giant juice box walking around your neighborhood this Halloween, come by and take a sip. Happy Halloween everyone!!
