What Are You Going to Be for Halloween?

I really like Halloween. Candy+ costumes + excuse for a party= a good time! My friend H finds it a little revolting to go door-to-door and ask for crap treats. Although we don't actually have a party to go to this year, I thought about dressing up in this little number. Couldn't you see Steve and I in that?!
In the past we have had some great costumes. He's been the Jolly Green Giant, Peter Pan, nerd, Mark Anthony and I believe there was a Tarzan one time.
I have been Wendy (to go with Peter and Tinkerbell), Cleopatra and a rad 80's girl. But this is my all-time favorite:

I think I was Wonder Woman for 5 years or so. And I concocted the outfit myself! In fact, I put all the costumes together with a few store-bought pieces because I'm cool like that. My freshman year of college, I came up with costumes for 5 of us just out of stuff we had in the dorm.

Savannah will be a ladybug this year. A perfectly cute costume for a 3-year old and besides, I got the wings for just $3.50! So, what' everyone else going to be?

Uh, well...you lived with me so you know that living with Steve is about like living with me. I'm such a guy. Mr. P even said "sooo....want me to help you clean out your closet this weekend?" Yea, you know it's bad when that happens.

Woops. I meant to post this on the husband post. Oopsie!

I guess I'll just be me this year for Halloween. I haven't dressed up since...um...probably since you made our costumes! Ha!

Oh, that is bad, CG! And the really funny thing...when we were dating Steve used to clean, cook, load the dishwasher, do his own laundry and he was always yelling at his roomates for being pigs!

Coming from SITS--you made a fabulous Wonder Woman! I am in awe of everyone who made their own costumes (or their kids'). Kudos to you for sure!

Very, very cute. And I am in awe that you did it yourself!

I'm visiting from SITS, btw. :)

I LOVE IT!

I saw a Wonder Woman costume at Walmart (of all places) this year and thought it would be a fun costume, but it was nothing compared to yours!
