Winner of the Halloween Costume Photo Contest

He won these pizes!!



"Thank you for the prizes Nami. The Hi-Chews were great. I'll try to find a light to put in the paper lantern. My dad deserves most of the credit for this costume actually, he carved the pumpkin (he always does, I am not good at carving pumpkins) and he helped me with the costume, although I designed both."
