I really enjoy Halloween but am not that into dressing up, unless it is original and not something that you can go out to the store and buy. Here are some of the things that I have been in the past.
Black Eye P - Cut out a "hump" and glue black eyed peas on it. Attach it to your back and black your eye.
Exclamation Point - All your clothes need to be the same color including your shoes but ware different color socks and pull them up over your paints.
One Night Stand - Fit a box around your waits and put a table cloth on it. You can put a magazine on the box and a glass of water or something. Find a brightly colored wig and then place a lamp shade on your head.
This year I have been invited to a halloween and was trying really hard to come up with something creative but everything I like my boyfriend doesn't like. He is very much an extrovert and me an introvert. He told me the other day "I want to be something that makes people look!" Everything I came up with will make people look but apparently that was not good enough! Well as of now we have decided to be Miss America and the runner up. I am not really excited about the idea and them more I think about it the more I hate the idea but we will see what happens. Some of my other ideas were:
Nudist On Strike - Wear normal clothes and have a sign that said Nudist On Strike.
Brian Donor - Wear a hospital gown (with something under it) draw big black circles under your eyes and carry a jar with cauliflower in it. wear a name tag that says brain donor.
Assault and Battery - One dresses as a salt shaker and one as a battery.
I have more but you get the idea. Wish me luck on getting him to change! Also if you have any ideas that "will make people look" you can p.m. me I need all the help I can get.
I haven't dressed up in a few years but my fav costume was a tube of toothpaste. We took stiff white fabric (like felt but stiff can't remember what it was called) and made a tube out of it by sewing up the back. We cut armholes and then used felt to make letters to spell Crest and glue them to the front. We also made the little 75 grams thing on the front as well. For the cap we made a bristol board hat and used elastic for under the chin. We then took the same white stiff fabric and folded it accordion style and glued it to the hat. For a little sparkle I used some green glitter on my cheeks.
OKay, little update .....
I decided on the Bride of Frankenstein. I love messing with my hair so this is perfect!
AND I'm so excited because this guy I kind-of have a crush on will be going so woo-hoo!!! :LOL:
Okay - so I was thinking I could use my chef jacket and be a Killer Chef - but what couly DH be with me? I was thinking of making him dress like eggs so I could beat him, or a carton of cream so I could whip him? LOL!

Did you see the episode of Girls Next Door where one of Hugh Heffners girlfriends jumped out of the cake and did a practice strip tease for her mom and stepdad! Yuck! The dad was smiling and enjoying it . Gross. Sorry, off topic.
Please allow me this indulgence...Trick or Treating was moved up one night to accommodate area football games on Friday...(what? Do you know how much we anticipate having Halloween on a Friday or Saturday?)
Anyway, my girls decided they wanted to make up their own costumes this year. So, Kasey, age 11, decided she wanted to be a goth girl. Korey, age 9, decided she wanted to be a pajama zombie with curlers in her hair. So here's the final result after I carefully applied the goth and zombie make-up effects (not much difference is there?).
OK. Thanks for allowing me the indulgence. (Did you have a choice? )
Kim will you come do MY makeup tonight?? But it still won't make me as pretty as your girls!! Great pictures!
And MOVING HALLOWEEN for FOOTBALL???? Good GRIEF Charlie Brown!!
LOL! I would love to. I've never been to Massachusetts! Thanks for the compliments.
Happy Halloween!
Of course Halloween is a little colder here, 31 this am but they say it will get up into the mid 50's tonight - and that's WARM for Halloween
So I decited to be a pice of bubblegum stuck to the bottom of your shoe! I dressed in all pink and straped a shoe to my head!
LOVE IT!
My DH put on my 11 yr old's sweats and shirt and his own letter jacket from high school and some tiny glasses and went out as "Mr. Spurt, Mr. Growth Spurt" LOL!
And it was so warm! In the fifties - yay!
