Over the Top? Happy Halloween

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Hubbie sent me this little Gem yesterday while clicking away at work and I had to share here with you all.

Over the top? Definitely. We are big on Halloween here. I've come to the decision that since the kids want to have fun, I've got to be part of the fun for it to work. Today I got on my Enthusiastic Mom hair wear and took the boys to bowling. After Bowling I needed to pick up a few things in town, now it's only on the 31st of October that I can walk into any store wearing my spider trimmed hair wear and not get strange looks. If only these people were this much fun the rest of the year. Smiles ROCK!

It's taken some time for Hubbie to come around though, while we dated we went to a costume party, I bought me a "baby" costume, pretty easy to do, but Hubbie came to my parents house to pick me up in his jeans and T-shirt and fall jacket. My Mom helped him out. She dragged out a hunter Orange hat, Vest, my Dad's Checked Flannel Jacket he used for taking in the wood, and found a Gun Case in my Brother's Closet! instant Hunter Costume. The following year we rented bunny costumes. Some woman, in our old town, had a whole basement full of costumes she's made over the years. Two white bunnies made out of Flannel Sheets. We were Kyoot but alas there are no pictures or proof. After we got married, I'd stay home and answer the door and Hubbie would work a late shift. He had little patiences for the doorbell, but once we had kids? YES!I get to dress our kids up as animals. TJ is 10 so there are no pictures of him on the computer in his Cougar suit, he was very cute! AJ also wore the Cougar suit his first Halloween. MJ was too big for the cougar suit the first year so he was a Dalmation. I might be able to find that picture year on here... nope but I've got 3yrs ago, The two Power Rangers.




Tonight the boys are having some friends over to go trick or treating with. Hubbie has volunteered to stay home. He's currently going out to buy his costume parts. He couldn't find enough parts in my wardrobe. This morning the boys were Clifford the Big Red Dog, Red Power Ranger and Batman. Tonight they will be Redo of Clifford, Alvin the Chipmunk, and Ghost Rider.
I think they will have fun and I get to walk the neighbourhood.

Speaking of Sugar... these are sugar cookies with jam and orange and brown Smarties(Canadian Smarties have chocolate) on them for finger nails or Almonds. Now I'll go back to the just nuts since mr allergic to chocolate can't eat these. The photo has both versions in it.
