Re: Halloween Costumes
Fred and Wilma. I made these costumes (2006) and we are re-using this year.... GASP!!!
Two years ago, my whole family went as the Sheet family.
DH had a sheet wrapped around his head-Sheet head
I wore a tube top and mini skirt under my sheet toga so it looked like I was not wearing anything underneath-Hot sheet
My dad wore bull horns and his sheet- Bull Sheet
Mom wore sheet that had holes in it-Holey sheet
It was so simple and it went over well!
Last year I went out with the girls and we used differnt color duct tape to make outfits and we were the "Fanta Girls"
Last year I was Snow White and SO was Wolverine.
This year we had planned on being Harley Quinn(her new costume not the one piece) and and Joker(not the dark knight, the original). But that looks like it may not happen this year. I hope so, but we'll see..
My boring blog
We were Homer and Marge Simpson last year. We're still trying to figure out what we're going to be this year.
My baby will be princess Leia
I think I will be something easy like a cowgirl. Here is her pic
I don't have any pics, but last year I was a mother spider. I've been a roll of toilet paper, and a serial (cereal) killer. They were totally fun.
I was Amy Winehouse last year, and I may do it again since we moved and no one will have seen this one on me yet:
Jack 11/29/2009 and Brynne 7/11/2013
We were pretty proud of ourselves last year:
His mug has a nametag that says "Mini me"
This year we are going as Dwight and Angela from The Office.
52 Books in 2014??


My sweet babies:




I'm so bummed, I don't think I am dressing up this year. We are only going trick or treating! I love getting dressed up for Halloween. I could do something to get in the spirit but I don't know what...we'll see.
Two years ago DH was a pilot and I was a stewardess - those were my favorite. I have also been the naughty schoolgirl, a hippy, a gangster and this year I am thinking of being Robin Hood or a cowgirl!
This wouldn't be timely now, but I have friends that went as Bill and Monica Lewinsky. My friend wore a "blue dress" and her DH wore a button that said, "Would you like to sit on the Presidential Staff?" Too funny ...
this year we are being Jon & Kate plus 8.
In years past we've been: middle fingers, spy vs spy, dog/beth the bounty hunter, roy horn/monticore the tiger, gi joe/army girl.
