No, but DH and I are both sick so we weren't handing out candy and we spent the night holed up in our house.

not this year, but the hubs and I both said we definitely will next year. it has been a long month for us and we just wanted to relax yesterday. we're getting old, LOL!
Just a few minutes before handing out candy, I decided we needed to dress up with something we had on hand. I dressed as a sad Cleveland Browns fan and DH dressed up as a sad Cleveland Indians fan... hats, jerseys, and I drew tears under our eyes with a blue magic marker. We were sad because our teams suck. lol The parents got a kick out of it!

DH and I dressed up as 80's punk rockers for both costume parties we attended. I only dressed up for DH....my heart definitely wasn't in it.
