I did last year - I was Snow White. I'd like to this year but not sure what will fit me. Maybe I'll be a cowgirl - complete with cowboy hat, jean skirt, boots, and a western shirt.
Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Nope, DH and I both hate Halloween and costumes are pure torture to me. If I didn't think Andrew would have so much fun at the Downtown event I would never even consider dressing him up and taking him out in our neighborhood until he was school age.

I almost did that, but I don't think anyone around here would notice, they'd just think it's regular work apparel, LOL, gotta love the country.

I am not dressing up.
I feel like such a square, but most "pregnancy" costumes are odious to me.
You'll hate me for this but I can't resist...you could go as "Octo-mom"
I'm not handing candy out to trick or treaters exactly (they wouldn't think to come this far out of town anyway) but I'll be working and I see about 40 or so people a day so I'll have cookies and candy for them. I'm going to dress as a hippie. I don't ever buy costumes, I just see what I have in my closet that can be put together. I have a bumpit (love) and a few clothes that on their own wouldn't seem hippie-ish, but put together do. I can't see spending $30 on something you can only wear once. What can I say, I'm cheap. I even decided to wear my wedding dress a few extra times-even if it is just around the house, LOL. I know I'm weird.

Thankfully I'm not nearly big enough to do that! (Seriously - I haven't gotten a single "twins?!?" comment - mostly I get the "Wow, you're so tiny!" comment.)

Yes, we are. We aren't taking DD anywhere, people are coming to us (friends and family stopping by) and we're hoping to get trick or treaters. I made DD a poodle skirt so she's going to be a 50's girl and DH and will be dressed in 50's style clothes, too.
No, next year definitely, but we had way too much going on this year to put much attention into Halloween plus we're living in temporary housing and I'm not even sure we'll get trick or treaters here.

We don't get ToT'ers at our house :-(
We're going out to dinner with my parents and sister, since DH is working late.
I might dress up... I haven't decided. If I don't, then I'll say I'm Evel's publicist! If I do, I have a Pocahantas dress that's my standby costume.

Yes, I'm going to dress up in my Harry Potter Gryiffindor robe and tie. I even have a wooden wand.
One year I dressed up in all my dirt bike gear complete with helmet. The kids thought that was pretty cool.
