Examining the Possibilities

As you know, mom and I are arguing over me wearing a Halloween costume.  I am willing to wear one for the Howl-o-ween Ball but nothing more!  So I agreed to try some one.  I already showed you the Bee but will show it again in case anyone missed it.


Mom thought it looked really cute on me but I don't think it captured my machoness and I want my date Lily to think I'm sort of macho as opposed to the cuddly love bug that mom says I really am.  Again, I hate wearing clothes.  I hate the feel of something on my back.  And when I said that to mom, she did this . . .


Yup, can you believe she did that to me???  I had to get that off fast!  But mom doesn't give up easily.

  
And of course Stanley, being the clown that he is, doesn't really care.


But mom always likes us to match . . . like we're twins or something . . .



How will I survive this?

You are surviving much better than I am, my friend! How did you manage to try all those on? You good sport, you look mighty fine in them all.

We are laying on ours backs kicking our feet laughing really hard. One time when our grandmonster boy was 2 he also had to wear a bee costume and mom has a picture of him looking really mad. WE thinks they are all really cute. Gussie suggests tho for impressing the girls yu may want to change into a ninja master.

We're SO not into the costume thing! Luckily Dad supports our view, so we aren't forced to endre the costume thing! But we think you both look, uh, totally macho. Yep. That's it. Totally macho! ;-)

Oh I feel for you. Why last year I was a donkey and now this year a pumpkin. When will I ever get to be the super hero dog. But I honestly like the cow, why you could go around say eat more tree rats.
Thanks for stopping by my blog

Just be thankful it is only one day and in another week will almost be over. Today hubbs and I were in HomeGoods and I saw a headband with Reindeer antlers on it-I remarked we could get it for Hunter for his Christmas Card. Well, hubby thought that idea was ridiculous. I think you are both so handsome-no matter what you are wearing.

I always dress Rocco as a football player, because he likes to punt his football!

Taffy said...

Murphy, I know this because I'm dating your brother but Moo is not what you are really saying in that photo. I know this is a G rated blog so you couldn't really put up what was coming out. I can't wait until the Howloweenie ball!

Scooter said...

Too right Murphy, NONE of those costumes match you machines. Naked is the only viable option, for sure. That or perhaps you would like to come and visit my household for the next couple of weeks - we have (unofficially) declared a Halloween free zone...

Frank The Tank said...

Squeeeeeee you looks so cute! I love the Cow! I have had the same problem with my Pawrents, they like to dress me up, it can be both embarassing and so much fun! Such a mix of emotions! Love and Licks from your furiend Frank xxxxxx

WFT Nobby said...

Drat autocorrect. Macho-ness NOT machines!

Oskar said...

Halloween costumes are never an issue for me. While my mom person would love to dress up me & the cats, my dad person has a "no costumes on the animals" rule. It's a relief. I'm sorry about the costume, but I know Lily will love you no matter what.

Nubbin wiggles,
