Halloween has been becoming my favorite holiday over the past few years.  Trying to think up a costume and put it together (I hope I never resort to buying one) has been so much fun.  I had a few ideas running through my head this year, but I didn't have much time so I had to think of something I could throw together quick.  I made my way to walmart, threw some stuff in my cart, and an hour later came up with this.....
It was so easy.  I bought some blue scrub pants and cut off the bottoms and used the part that I cut off to make the overall part by safety pinning it on.  I found some perfect blue suspenders at Walmart and just cut some of that yellow craft foam and taped it on to make the yellow buttons.  I found a cheap $3 red had at Walmart and used the foam to make the Mario "M".  Oh..and I also had some white gloves.  And voila.  It took a lot less time than last years costume and considering the time I had to throw it together, I was very happy with how it turned out!
 Gotta love the fact that Patrick went as Gumbi! Can always count on him to have a bit elaborate costume! ha.

 I was still in Connecticut over halloween.  Josh and Colleen decided to throw a party.  They invited some of their friends, had lots of food, good music, and a little singstar of course.  I hung out there for a while and then headed over to the Pratts who were also having a little shindig at their place.

Me and Mckay - He went as Bleeker (Nicki was Juno).  Those shorts were something else.
Me and my pimp Barrett.
Laura wanted to give the Juno stomach a try. Ha.  It looked so real.  But I'm sure Bishop S. was happy it wasn't!
