Lions, Tigers, Lopsided Bears, Oh My!


Halloween is my all-time favorite holiday.  Hands down.  No contest.  I love it for so many reasons but, mostly, the costumes.  There are just so many opportunities for humor (both good and bad) that I can't help but smile.  If you don't believe me, I double-homemade-dog-costume-dare you to google "epic Halloween costumes" or "Halloween costume fail" and not laugh.  Seriously.  Go.  I'll wait.



SEE!  See what I mean!  Fantastic!

How can you not love a holiday that accommodates adorable costumes for kids (note the lions, tigers and bears comment) and crazy costumes for adults (note the "Hookerween" pic from bluntcards.com).  It's just so much fun.  All this to say, Mark and I take Halloween seriously.

Every year we attempt to come up with some sort of epicness to show off.  It all started in high school with Mark's (now famous) WD-40 costume.  So far, the notable costumes have included Worm on a Hook (think three foot PVC fishhook "through" the body), Hammer Time (giant hammer meets giant clock), Peas and Carrots, Dead Battery (giant battery plus zombie make-up), and Pippi Longstocking.  I know I am excluding some but you get the point.  Halloween is kind of our thing.

So here we are again, with Halloween looming just around the corner and crunch time approaching.  So the question remains .. what in the world are we going to be this year!?
