    I always normally dress up as the neighbourhood witch and pass out treats. I'm often sitting out front with a candlelabra (sp?) since we don't have a front porch light. I have made most of my costumes same as my cycling clothes. I was kinda looking forward to riding downtown in Indy in costume tonight though. I may just have to take a quick ride around the neighbourhood to terrorize the tots before sitting out with the cheetos and teddy grahams.

    Ten points if you can identify who he's impersonating. 20 points if you're over 40!

    Why, it's Billy Joe Armstrong from "Green Day."

    I think the red eye adds to the costume.

    Ha, I forgot the poster was in the background.

    Here's a sad thing...I used mascara on his existing peach fuzz to make his beard and he's only TWELVE!!

    He hit his nose on the bottom of the hotel pool last week, so that explains the unibrow.

    Here's a photo of my DH and I taken by one of the neighbours. I took a VERY short spin up and down the street as by the time I got home from baby sitting the few trick or treaters we had were coming to the door.

    You completely rock!

    My son wore the same dragon/dinosaur costume! Ok, no surprise since it came from Target, but, still.

    Great pictures, everyone!
    Very creative.

    Halloween was a bust at our house. We had only 2 kids show up!
    DH takes that as a personal insult ("What, don't they like me?")

    Some brainiac actually put it out on the news on the lead up to Halloween ...
    "If you are a sexual predator, please don't turn on your porch light or hand out candy to the kids."
    Oh, GEEEEZ, hon! Now we CAN'T turn out the light! What will the neighbors think!!!!

    Brandi,

    I love it that in your picture, you are standing up on a step, and still just the same height as your DH! I can SO relate. Great costumes, by the way. You, also, Mary.
