dolphin tale

My kid has a thing for dolphins.
And by, "thing," I mean, woulddieforthemwantstobeone.
It's serious.

When Dolphin Tale came out, I knew we would be first in line.
What I didn't know was that we would be wearing a wetsuit to the theatre...
Let me explain:
She desperately wanted to be a dolphin for Halloween.
The only costume I could find in her size was in Australia.
And cost $56 for shipping alone.
No thank you.
So, I started thinking outside the box...
and girlfriend is going to be a dolphin trainer for Halloween.
Wear a wetsuit, carry a dolphin, tape a few construction paper fish to her treat back and

Voila!

We have a dolphin trainer!

PS.  We also wore the wetsuit to Target before the movie.
That was fun.
Got some looks.
Had some explaining to do.
Etc...
Life with a 5 year old is never dull.
