The Three Amigos

We are the Three Amigos!

Ever since Mason was small, Grandma Scott has been making him a Halloween costume for his birthday present. Since his younger brothers all have fall birthdays, they have also taken advantage of the deal. The costumes that Grandma makes are very intricate (as you can see in the photo above). This year for the Three Amigos costumes, Grandma made every piece of these costumes except for the white shirts and the sombreros. The boys learned a few lines from the movie, such as, "Tell us we will die like dogs." When the person then repeats that the Amigos will die like dogs, they then say, "No, we will not die like dogs. We will fight like lions." Except for Sam who would shorten it to, "Fight lions!" They boys also learned the Amigo salute.

I do have to admit that the response we got as we wandered about trick-or-treating made me feel a bit old. There were many people who didn't know what we were trying to do with the costumes, but the ones who did thought they were great. (My favorite person though, was the guy who realized that I was dressed as El Guapo.
