It's Halloween (Pics later!)Follow

Who is dressing up and if you have kids what are they dressing up as? I want pics tomorrow morning, chop chop!

After a long talk about how, just because I may be a mom does not mean I know how to sew, let alone sew crazy *** costumes of pokemon I have never heard of, Xavier is going as a ninja. Cause Pikachu didn't cut it for him.

Ashe has gotten me addicted to ebay now, because of his costume choice. He is addicted to Link from Zelda and those are hard to find (unless you check ebay). He has his ocarina, I made him a Navi to sit on his shoulder, his sword, and sheild. He was a little disgruntled that I couldnt find him deku nuts but oh well.

And Soren picked out his own costume for the first time this year. He is going as Mario. The costume is 2 years too big so he will be Mario for the next few years.

I created my own costume with black leather pants, corset, full cloak, daggers, and calf high boots. Showing my own geekiness, it's a representation of my avatar, Meiune, throughout all the games I've played her. I love it

Double post.

I'll be escorting Minnie Mouse and a Pumpkin around the neighborhood after the holiday get-together. Nothing special planned for myself.



Don't let that stop you from dressing up like a vampire and demanding food from your neighbors.

How is not wanting free candy a perk?

I don't plan on dressing up, but Noah is going as Jason. A nice easy costume. We're not doing the door-to-door thing this year, there's a big to-do downtown tonight, so we're going there. He already has tons of candy from the party we had here at the apartment complex Saturday night. I've had way too much of it.

I picture him more going as Richard Simmons with his rainbow sweatbands and short-shorts.

Just as a "joke", of course.

Varus wants his glittery pink fairy wings back.

Parents get to raid their kid's bags after the fact. It's a pretty good system.

I found a pile of candy on my desk this morning. There is another pile at the coffee-pot counter.

Milk Duds, Charleston Chews and Almond Joys are my fav.

'Coworkers', great coworkers that have no problem redistributing their kids phat lootz to candy-starved adults at the office.

Hell yeah, twice as much candy for half the work.

My son went out as batman and my daughter as Cinderella.

My daughter is 4. I asked her if I could have all of her chocolate bars and she said "OK Daddy!" and started grabbing them all for me. Kids are awesome. (no, I did not take all of my 4 year old's chocolate bars)

I bought waaaaaay too much candy. We live at the end of a court that only has houses on one side of the street. We just bought the house this year so we weren't sure what to expect. We got about 20 kids, I bought enough candy for 150, easy.
