A couple (more) Halloween Pics, just 'cause.


I decided the only reason I dress up for Halloween is because no matter what my costume is I will find a way to incorporate blue eye shadow and glitter, and way too much mascara.


Last year I was a gliggery Go-Go dancer. This year I ended up being a glittery bee (again...same as 2 years ago):


I don't know what next year holds in store for me, but rest assured it will be glittery.

Baby Tiger



Like most ninjas, Jacob managed to evade the camera all night, so I don't have a good one in full costume, but here's the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle himself, sans mask:


And now a couple randoms:

They were holding hands, how cute is that?


Ok I had to snap this picture because it cracks me up...I put him down for his nap wearing two socks and he woke up from his nap wearing no socks, and one sock was up by his head. The other sock? I never found it. How does a 7 week old get a sock above his head? He doesn't grab or throw things yet. I blame gnomes. That must be what keeps him up at night, too.

Happy Halloween, kids. And now, this year's edition of obligatory cute kid photos. I feel bad because the only one I have of Jacob was taken on my phone and he's at school right now. Maybe I will get some better ones of him later. But who am I kidding? Nothing is cuter than Halloween Babies anyway.



Rawr!!!


Ninja Turtle...why are all of these dumb characters making a comeback? It is pretty funny though. He even says "KAWABUNGA, DUDE." Sigh.

In the spirit of Halloween, this WW is brought to you by all things Halloweeny...or whatever else I can think of to put here.


Sorry Mom, not to make you feel guilty or anything, but one of my worst memories of childhood comes from our make-shift Halloween get-ups. We were pretty freaking poor so every year, a few days before Halloween, my sister and I would ransack the house looking for anything that could be made into a Halloween costume. Key word: MADE. Nothing was purchased. Ever.

Our conversations always went something like this:

MiniMe: "Mommmmm. What am I going to be for Halloween this year?"
Mom: "How about a Hobo"
MiniMe: "I was a Hobo last year. I don't want to be a Hobo. Can't we buy a clown costume?"
Mom: "We didn't have costumes when I was a kid. We were always Hobos- here, let's go smear some dirt on your face a cut a hole in this t-shirt"

Thank God the florescent 80's rolled around, because we got to be Punks every year after that with all of our lacy Madonna-esque gloves and hot pink socks.

So what do you think is going to be this year's most over-used costume?

Who will you refuse candy to if they show up in the most used costume of 2008?

It never fails, among the bags and bags of candy, there is always some jackass in the neighborhood that totally ruins your night with craptastic candy. This stuff should be illegal:

The people who give out THIS candy should be forever surrounded by rotting pumpkin carcasses and egged to all eternity. Who is the worst offender?

A lot of people have started the fab trend of dressing up their dogs for the festivities, even though their dogs hate them and want to eat their faces. Note that the popularity of "sexy" Halloween costumes has even entered the dog market.

Poll #1287350
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 21

Who would make the best sleep-over buddy?

1. You know it's going to be a good day when you go to fill up your car and gas is $2.88! Also- I realized that my excitement level for "low" gas prices is entirely too high. That means I am officially old and responsible.

2. It's finally cold outside. 49 right now to be exact. I'm sure it will warm up later, but it was so nice this morning and take LG to school with a sweatshirt on. Yes, I am easily pleased. I love fall and winter. I detest summer. I hate being hot. If only it were cold enough to wear my new badass boots. Soon. Soon.

3. I celebrated the cool temperatures yesterday and baked some pumpkin bread. Yum. Yum. Yum. Hot coffee and fresh homemade pumpkin bread for breakfast on a crisp fall day...it really can't get much better.

4. This weekend is my sister and brother-in-law's annual Halloween Bash. Stay tuned for pictures and costume summaries, which will be sure to please. If you remember, last year I was a bee and Hub was a Sumo wrestler. This year will be much more entertaining. You've already have a preview of my go-go-tastic dress and boots (if I can fit my ass in it)...just wait til you see Hub.

5. With no time to change costumes for tomorrow's party, I'm toying with the idea of taking advantage of my crapass haircut and being Dora for Halloween night, at my neighborhood's party. I already have the stupid hair- the clothes would be easy. Accessories- again, easy. Yay? Nay?

First things first... really? Only one comment on Farting Preacher?? Really?? Come on...that was just funny. Lighten up people.

Now for the important stuff:

Tomorrow is Halloween. I thought I'd post some pictures from a Halloween party we went to last week. Speaking of Halloween, I went to Wal-Mart today to pick up two things. Coffee creamer and Halloween candy. I spent $105. Cavities are expensive.

This is Sumo Hubby and Whitehousemom as Bee Girl


Here is my sister and brother-in-law. He is Lieutenant Dangle and she is Old Lady with Lost Puppy. (Um the puppy sadly got lodged in her giant badonkadonk butt.) (Oh, and she'd kill me if I didn't make sure everyone knew the costume has a LOT of stuffing.)


Here is Little Guy and Little Niece


Ok, this is my MOM. Who knew she was a hottie?


Remember kids, don't take any candy from strangers. Oh, wait... it's Halloween. That rule doesn't apply.
