A year later, we followed up our lovely Legos with an Adams Family-esque post and some store-bought costumes (boooooo).
This year, we didn't dress up, but instead lived vicariously through our child. Scratch that, I sort of dressed like an angry bird - apparently my Cyclone hat resembles an angry cardinal. Pair it with some red sweatpants and a red long-sleeve shirt and booyah, the neighbor boy could tell what I was. Success determined by a 10-year-old. Rob kind of dressed up too. For the haunted house at his high school he wore a black suit and tie, a fedora and black sunglasses while carrying a harmonica. That's right, he was a Blues Brother (singular). Kind of like dressing as a salt shaker if you ask me, but to each their own. While we don't have pictures of our "costumes," a term I use loosely, we do have an abundance of photos of Faith in costume. Without further ado...
The 80s babe. But since this obviously wouldn't have been warm enough to trick-or-treat in (and I think people would've looked at her mother funny) I give you exhibit B.

Howie was supposed to go as her sheep, but after the first house, let's just say he changed his mind and decided to go as a security dog.
btw, he's doing MUCH better! |
Thomas was in charge of the doorbells.
If that weren't enough Oct. goodness, we also went to safety night at my mom's work, a tradition I used to partake in as a kid, so of course it seemed much smaller attending as an adult. Fun was had by all, especially Faith and her cousin, Cameryn, who dressed like a monkey, but I think she was really "The Blur" cause I never got a decent photo of her standing still! Here's the best I could do.
Faith also got her first and last tattoo, which she wouldn't stop showing off to anyone who would look at her arm. I was going to get her face-painted, but the clown suggested this instead so Faith could see it. Clowns are SMART!
Faith and the clown genius! |
Faith and my favorite clown of all. |
