the monkey and the banana

for halloween this year we decided to recycle the monkey costume i made gerrit a couple years ago. and what goes better with a monkey than a banana? definitely not my best work ever and it will be retired this year to just the dress up box, but they sure look cute together in the one picture that turned out even remotely decent (what would i do without the sucker bribe?)


gerrit still had a hard time keeping up with the big kids in the trick or treating and i think he had even more fun passing out the candy. we got together at my brother's and each time the doorbell rang he ran towards the door yelling "trick or treat, trick or treat!"

and look at this monkey...
