Take last year for example. We decided to dress Macy up as Max from "Where the Wild Things Are" (see last year's post here) and nobody got it. Instead of being praised for our creative costume idea, we spent the entire night explaining what she was.
So this year we come up with what we think is an absolutely hilarious idea, get all dressed up and head off to our Halloween party looking like this:
So here's your Halloween pop quiz. Were we:
A) Cavemen/women
B) Disco dancers
C) Zebras on crack
D) None of the above
If you answered D, none of the above, give yourself some candy corn, you're right! Still stumped at what we did go as? (Drum roll, please.) Sigfried and Roy! Okay, so it wasn't the best attempt at creating the gay tiger trainers' getups, but I thought the intense bronzer and gold bling would totally give it away if our little white tiger sidekick didn't.
Anyways, despite our costume confusion, we had a fun night with the friends.
The Cooke crew featured 2 pirates, 2 Handy Mannys and 1 ladybug.
The Fields came as vampires, and apparently pretty scary ones. One of the Cooke's little boys hid behind the couch for a half an hour after he saw Brad with his "scary teeth."
The Johnsons came as Fred and Wilma Flintstone. I absolutely loved their costumes and might be hitting up Heidi to borrow their get-ups next year.
Moral of this story? If you can't come up with recognizable costumes, at least hang out with people who don't care!
