Also, it is going to be long and challenging. Her young song has his first ball. Now everything is almost fine (except our nerves) and her little devil is sleeping. But those days were awful. We were looking for a decent costume. It turned to be a real problem.

At first sight everything seems as easy as ABC. There are a lot of various stores and sites offering a great selection of numerous costumes. But, after a closer look… Oh my God. It was awful. Some costumes were really expensive, some were small or oversized, others were from more than cheap and from not very reliable fabrics, some were simply dowdy….

It was a real nightmare. Oh, before I forget, we even met a baker’s dozen of adult costumes. First of all, most of the costumes are for women only. But after seeing them our only thought was: “Where in the hell it was possible to find a single man liking THIS…???”

I know, it can seem stupid, but it was a real leg-work, exhausting and boring. You can think that we are crazy … but … it is just THAT serious.

Finally, we found the costume we were looking for. Hope, you will like it. Have you ever been in such funny and may be even fool situation?
