Halloween Party

I have not once bought a Halloween costume. They are ridiculously expensive and made of cheap thin material. Instead every single year I raid my parents Halloween boxes. They are 2 1/2 boxes full of old clothes that we would never wear in public again. Most of the clothes fit me when I was between the ages of 6-12. I helped throw a halloween party with all our old highschool buddies.... So I dug up this old Bridesmaid dress that my sister wore to my aunts wedding when she was 14, and I went as a 1980's Prom queen. Mike wore this hidious blue and red plaid jacket (who knows where is came from) and went as a used car salesman. Tate was a Turtle

Mike and Dasha as The librarian and her nerd

The hippy showed up


The witch and her cute octopus (his costume below)

The Genie


John and Kate + 8

We had about 5 people show up in cowbow attire

The black widow and her victim

And our the adorable little boys, the Octopus and turtle. They didn't last very long in their outfits, however. Tate will pick on Carter every time they get together. But Carter is such a good little boy he just puts up with it.



I didn't get everyone's picture but it was great to see everyone again! Thanks Teri for the fun night!

Odd

Last night Tate came down with a strong case of the giggles.

He woke us up from 4:30am-5:30am with a Laugh attack. What he was laughing about, no one will ever know

We just couldn't resist bringing him in bed with us to join in on the laughter.

What an odd little boy.
