Happy Halloween!

 

I hope everyone had a happy and great Halloween!  Our family had three, straight days of non-stop fun and we ended up with way more candy than we could ever eat.  This is the first time in years that I decided to dress up.  I didn't dress up just for the fun of it, I promise!  We attended a friend's Halloween party and costumes were strongly encouraged.  I believe this is the first picture of Heidi and me together and it's a great one, isn't it?  I have added a picture of myself with my husband based on the fact that nobody knew who I was supposed to be until they saw me with my him.  He's going to love the fact that these pictures have been made public too!

Do you know who we were?  I'll let you guess and let you know in another post.  By the way, everything about this character is completely opposite of who I am.  I learned three things from this experience:  Never go platinum, I really hate overly large breasts!  I couldn't even see to buckle up my belt!  And...never wear spandex again...period! 

This Halloween was so exciting for me because my children actually chose to be cool things.  They repeatedly choose to be action figures year after year, which is really no fun at all...for me.  I've been dying to get out the face paint and create a work of art and my middle son finally gave in.  It took some begging, but he pulled through in the end!

He's supposed to be a vampire bat, if you couldn't tell!

What did you do this Halloween?  Did anybody attend any great parties or have unique costumes?  We'd love to hear all about it!
