I thought I'd try to get some non-TTC discussions going. Might help to get our minds off of it for those in the TWW currently or waiting to O.
Anyways, I teach school, and every year the teachers are trying to come up with good individual or group costume ideas. So, I thought I'd ask if you guys are dressing up. If so, what are you going as? Or, what's your best costume of the past. Or, what are some good costume ideas you have.
Halloween is on a Saturday this year and we are going to a costume mandatory party. Right now my DH and I are probably going as zombies from the Walking Dead. But I'm interested to hear other ideas!
I'm a dance teacher and we're putting together a Halloween show. There's going to be some great routines but the one I'm looking forward to most in Zombie Barbie (can you believe there's actually a song called "Zombie Barbie"?!?!). We are going to wear lots of pink with ripped black accents. And zombie make-up too, of course.
For actual Halloween, H and I are going to wearing matching Penguin Hoodies! We made them for a dance show we both performed in. We also have a few close dance friends who have them as well. We figured we'd all go out to dinner in the hoodies and then walk around town drawing a lot of attention. The thing I love about those hoodies is that they will keep us so warm and toasty. I always hate being cold on Halloween or having to wear a jacket over my costume.

The best one was when my husband wore a milk cow costume and everyone kept pulling his tits. LOL I was sexy Alice and totally rocked it
This year I think we're both working but maybe there's a late night party we can hit. I'd like to be Maleficent this time to keep the fairytale theme going
I ordered matching Snow White costumes for myself and DD - I think I'm sadly more excited than she is! We're going on a Disney cruise this winter though so I figured we'd at least wear them one other time
