Halloween 2010

After everyone got past the confusion of which night the kids were "supposed to" trick or treat... it ended up being Sunday night that our little goblins were out and about... we decided to head down to Anthony's mom's house cuz she gets more ghouls and cuties than we do.
McKenzie was Elle Woods from Legally Blonde and Bryson was a hobo. His shoes even show his poor dirty little toes. ;-)

   Riley was Diego. A perfect costume for him!      Dawson was a werewolf.

At work, my friend Kelly brought her 4 year old by. Gavin was a pirate, but I didn't see him makin' anyone walk the plank. Isn't he adorable?!

And now to explain me .... for a week or two, I had a costume idea in mind I found via my BFF, Google. It was a "homemade" thing, not a store bought getup. But on Thursday night, I changed my mind. At 10:30 pm, I finally settled on dressing up as ....
            a FRESHMAN.
   I grabbed my backpack, a pom pom and my UNC visor and threw on some sweats and flops and POOF, I was magically transformed into a college freshman. All I needed to top off the look was a Student ID badge, a campus map (which I found courtesy of Google - geez they should pay me for all these endorsements) and a look of bewilderment & confusion (which is easy for me to pull off). At first, I felt like I had let down my fans... but the people at work really got a kick out of my creativity. I kept asking people where the Peabody building was because I was late for class.



Today at work one of the IS guys asked me if I ever found my class. LOL
As you can see (above) I eventually gave up.

I'm fully aware that I will probably NEVER top Halloween 08's costume:

I still get asked about this...our pic even made it in our local newspaper that year. "Joe the Plumber" topped it off nicely. But Sarah's either gonna have to whack her hair off like mine or I'm gonna need a wig if I'm gonna repeat this one in 2012 (IF she runs for Prez)....
