Minnie's Bowtique Van Wheelchair Costume
This special costume was made for a little girl who loves Minnie Mouse. Her father was in the Navy when he requested this costume for his daughter, but lost his life in the line of duty before we were able to build this costume for her. We added in photos of her father into the costume to make sure she knew he was still with her.

John received his Chiefs Arrowhead Stadium wheelchair costume at our "Walkin' & Rollin' Twisted Halloween Party! Vol. 3" event in 2019.

Sustained Homes, from Kansas City, delivered with an incredible looking X-Wing that Poe Dameron would be thrilled to fly. Raylan was so happy with his new ride too.
