Mother-Son Superhero Dance

I love love love where we live.  There's always something fun going on!  This weekend was the first Parks and Recreation Mother-Son Superhero Dance.

I asked Cole months ago what superhero he would want to be and he immediately answered "BATMAN!".  I'm not sure why - we don't do any licensed characters really, but he must have heard about it at preschool.  And then he decided I should be Joker.  And then when I was talking about it with my friend Emily who was taking her son Dean, we decided they should coordinate and be Robin and the Riddler!

 I used a hair spray paint to make my hair green... it was Cole's favorite part!

 I had SO much fun making these costumes for our cute boys!

 

 Cole spent the weeks leading up to the dance trying on his costume every chance he got and flying up and down our hall!

 

 Cole's friend Torin was there too!

 

 

 This dance was seriously SO well done.  They had a super fun DJ, a professional photo booth, a Twist contest, BINGO, snacks, a blow up slide,  and a LOT of dancing.  We danced and partied and ate cookies and just had a blast with all the other moms and sons.  It was so special to have a date with just my Cole-man!

 Kadance and Declan were there too!

Cole is already planning our costumes for next year's dance - I'm thinking this will be an annual tradition!
