Last year, my husband rocked making a Godzilla costume for our little man Alex — he even made the SF Chronicle’s list of finalist in their costume contest!
This year, it was our oldest boy’s turn to get a daddy-made costume, and he requested the Xenomorph from Alien. At 7 1/2, he has never seen the movie (neither have I, by the way) but he saw the alien itself on youtube and decided that was it. And daddy obliged:
Yes, my husband is insane π He worked on this costume for about two weeks, roughly 40-50 hours, and has yet to go to sleep since yesterday. But he loves making stuff like this and even more so, when his kid loves it as well. And our boy did.
I love his sweet classmate’s face here, the kids loved the costume and kept asking my husband how he made it.
My husband and his parents were there to help our boy put on the costume, here Gran helps Aidan walk out of the classroom and line up for the parade:
I love the look on Steve’s face here, so happy that his boy loves his costume!

Happy Halloween, everyone!
That is badass beyond words!!!
thank you!!!
FREAKING insane!! Steve is rather amazing.
isn’t he, though?
oh my gosh, that’s amazing! hope THAT one makes it into the paper, too. it deserves to!
thanks, I didn’t enter it this year as it was barely ready on Halloween morning π
OMG that costume is insane! It’s absolutely perfect. Funny enough, I just watched Alien for the second time on Halloween night and it’s one of the scariest movies out there. I love it!
