Halloween? Already?

I am not a happy dude.

My mom loves the fall (and I hate it) because she gets to dress me up. I am not a handsome fashion model like my buddies Butchy and Snickers, and I don't really like wearing clothes. My dad doesn't let my mom dress me up the rest of the time (THANK YOU DAD). But in the fall there are two big exceptions: Halloween, and Buckeye football.





My mom is really into Buckeye football, so I have a sweatshirt and a jacket that say "OHIO STATE" on them. I have to wear the sweatshirt (or my Buckeye bandanna) on game days. I have to wear the jacket when Ohio State plays Michigan. I am also supposed to growl when I hear the word "Michigan." It's good for a cookie or two.



My Uncle Walter has a nice Buckeye shirt too, but he likes wearing clothes. He even has his own tuxedo and pajamas.

My mom LOVES Halloween also. She already bought my 2007 Halloween outfit at Target. How embarrassing. Check out some of my previous costumes:





Well, I am rather embarrassed, but this year, I am going to be a MOOSE for Halloween.



This is not me in the picture - I will not let my mom take my picture in this! - it is a handsome wire fox terrier Target dog model. Target has all sorts of embarrassing costumes for pets - even a lobster! Beware, my clothes-hating friends!

Or have fun dressing up, if you like that sort of thing. What are you going to be for Halloween?

Lenny!

I'm with you... TOTALLY! I hate clothes, so I plan to be me for Halloween.

You know, though, you kind of look like a big buff football player in your OSU jacket. And, your Yoda costume gets my vote & my girl's vote for best Halloween costume!

Goober love,
Stanley

What a good sport you are! Yeah, I know, but we have to indulge those Moms sometimes (sigh).

Cute moose, though!

Ha ha ha, I LOVE those photos of you dressed up! Your Yoda is such a hoot. Halloween isn't such a big deal over here in the UK but I hope J1 doesn't start getting any funny ideas! J x

Your pals, Mackie and Finnegan

Dear Lenny: My muzzer says me n Teka don't get any Halloween costumes this year because last year Teka ate both of the costumes before we even got pictures taken! If you want to borrow her I will not charge you, except for transportation costs. However, you must expect to have a few toys destroyed also..like ALL of them.

Hi, Lenny
Thankfully my mom can't find costumes here! I just like to wear my dress-harness because they mean walkies!!
Sorry but I have to say that you look really cute!!
Have a good night

Hey Lennie, me again. J1 keeps coming back to laugh at your Yoda! It's certainly keeping her entertained! J x

I hate the whole clothes thing too, and it is SO HOT down here the most I usually might have to put on is a stupid tank top. About Halloween, I was thinking of going as a nudist....

Love the moose costume! You'd almost pass for the real thing here in Canada. Sure, you'd be a little small, but people would think you were just really far away from the highway, which is where most moose spotting seems to happen.

So Lenny, guess what? I have an uncle ... my mom's brother ... and his name is Lenny too. Funny huh? I bet he'd just hate that he has to share his name with someone as handsome as you.

Pop by for a visit any time!
