Patrick was Rocky Balboa, The Italian Stallion, for Halloween. He won the neighborhood costume contest. His costume consisted of baggy shorts, bulky robe, plastic mouth guard, boxing gloves, wrestling shoes, face and torso made up with cuts and bruises. He carried around Stephen's Ipod plugged into a miniature speaker, that he carried in his robe pocket, with the theme from Rocky I and the one from Rocky II playing continuously. He owns the set of Rocky movies and is a big fan of them. He does a good imitation of "Yo, Adrienne!"
Good job, Patrick. Say hi to Paulie. Happy Halloween.
Wait. Who was Paulie? Was that the little guy, the trainer? Patrick, I was sad for you with your poor broken face until I read that it was makeup! You did a good job and I think you deserved to win the contest. If you hadn't won, you could have beaten them all up. Oops. Hello. Maybe that's why you won?
Oh, soo excellent, Patrick. I love the way you did your make-up. Great idea for a Halloween character.
Julia and her two friends, Alexis and Christian, wore Grandma Mimi's old gowns all pinned up to fit. I suggested many times that they either look dead or maimed, but none of them would have it. They just wanted to look pretty as prom girls. I'll have to post those pics.
Patrick, you look awesome! Who did your makeup....David??!!
