The Terminator

I'm a little late in posting this but it was worth posting so here I go.

The Jakester decided long before Halloween that he would be the Terminator for the big day.
Easier said than done, apparently. If there isn't a current release of a movie in the offing during a particular Halloween season it is really difficult to find those character costumes.

You'd think in the state of the Govenator we'd be able to find this costume year round but o'contraire!

So, the hubby and the boy went a' lookin' for the prized costume. After a 6 hour excursion, 3 costume shops, two mega stores and 50 bucks later.....ta da! The Terminator.

I was pretty impressed that the deed got done without any input from me, lol.

Anyhow, we planned to go Trick or Treating at my girlfriend Sally's with her kids.
Usually a group comes to our house but this sounded fun and they have never spent Halloween together...this particular group of friends.

On the way there I was asking Jake the usual mom litany of questions.

"When you go to each house, Jake, what do you say when they open the door?"

In perfect Terminator fashion, his dad and I hear from the back seat,

"I'll be back."

We just busted up.

Of course, all the rest of the night we tried to get the child to deliver the primo one liner with no success.

Once was all we were gonna get, why mess with perfection?
