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!
