Finn decided he wanted to be a fireman for Halloween a long time ago. I don't know if I have mentioned it or not, but he is WAY into first responders, mainly those manly firemen. He watches Fireman Sam everyday and we have to simulate fires and rescues multiple times a day. So this costume was a no brainer. That being said, I ordered it online nearly a month ago thinking it would give me plenty of time to return/exchange if it didn't fit. As of Sunday, it still hadn't arrived, so after emails and maze of customer service representatives, it was finally determined that I would be getting a refund because the costume would not be coming. Great! One week before Halloween and I have to scramble to find the one size 3T fireman costume in the DC area (which apparently, doesn't exist). So, we improvised and I found a "make believe" fireman's jacket and I'm making his pants (don't faint, I'm just gluing neon stripes on black pants). Obviously, he thinks he looks awesome! So, Halloween is saved. Thanks for nothing, Overstock.com!
By the way, the megaphone is a WORKING megaphone, which means you will hear us coming from many miles away. Stay tuned for the real pictures from Halloween trick or treating!
