I guess it depends on what you're doing for Halloween too (like a party or whatnot), but are you doing a costume?
I don't think I'm doing a costume, but maybe I'll do a hat or silly headband or something. I haven't dressed up in years so I didn't even think about it until DD insisted I do it!
We will prob just be doing trick or treating at the High School, and a festival at the fire house, so low key stuff.
Re: Are you doing a costume?
I am only because my aunt has a Halloween party every year. I think I'm going as my Mom circa 1975 this year - I have one of her dresses from the 70s!
I dress up every year. Even if it's just as a nurse. My kids love that I dress up.
I really want to. I haven't in the past, but DS keeps telling us what he wants us to be. Ha ha.
DS says he's gonna be Buzz, I'm going to be Jessie, and DH is going to be either Woody or Bo Peep. Ha ha haaaaa.
I love making costumes and so does my DH. Before we had kids, we always went all-out with costumes at Halloween. Now we go all out for the kids, and if we can work ourselves into the theme, we do.
Here are some things we've done in the past:
Kids dressed as dinosaurs, we dressed as "Jurassic Park" style dinosaur rangers (khaki shorts and shirts, hats, etc.)
We dressed as the Teletubbies: Baby DS was Po, DD was LaaLaa, I was Dipsy, DH was TinkyWinky -- it was hilarious. DH wore the skirt and carried a red purse.
Mr. and Mrs. Green Giant with Sprout (this was before DS came along).
Last year the kids dressed as different Pokemon, and their costumes were so involved that DH and I didn't dress up.
DH, DD, and I dressed as pirates, DS was a parrot.
Also, the year that DS dressed as Lightning McQueen (yes, I made the whole car!) we didn't dress up.
We're all dressing up and we're going to each year if we're able. This year we're doing a Grease theme and DD and I are wearing poodle skirts. DH is going to wear black pants and a black jacket with a white t-shirt and socks.
Next year we're doing a Super Mario Bros theme. I'm going to be Mario, DH will be Luigi, DD with be Princess and the baby will be Toad. I can't wait!
