The Night Before Halloween

We had babysitters and an invite to a party. 

What we didn’t have: costumes. 

So the day of the party, we scrambled a little to find costumes for us.  I came up with an idea for Bill (and am pretty impressed that I did!).  So that left us looking for elements to his costume and me looking for anything that wasn’t trashy, too short or expensive.  Talk about a scavenger challenge!  But I think I did okay:

However, the fangs I bought for my Vamp look didn’t work.  Seriously, who do these companies think can really keep their mouth dry for 5 minutes to let some bonding putty set?  Yeah right!

So we headed to Nate (in the Green ‘Kickass’ costume) & Angie’s (a vintage cigarette girl) where, unfortunately, not too many people were able to show at last minute.

So we headed to the bar, only to find out that it too was pretty empty.  Just meant more room for us.

Bill’s co-worker, John (Lumberjack), met up with us. IMG_5379

As did Brent (Redneck Zombie), after the Zombie Walk downtown.

Oh, and for those of you *not* familiar with the movie “The Hangover”, Bill’s costume probably looks rather odd.  He went as Alan, a character from the movie, who carried around “Carlos”, a stranger’s baby.  Yes, that’s a doll and yes, it’s just about life-size (and post-party is now Alexis’ baby).
