Halloween 2014

This was the year we recycled costumes.  With such a busy summer and Fall, we decided on EASY this year.  Enter Godzilla and Japanese school girl...

My costume was pretty simple since I already owned most of the clothes.  And talk about comfortable.  And the black wig.  What do you think?  My new look?

Mike originally created a dinosaur costume many years ago.  He morphed it into Godzilla by adding some scales to the back  (gloves stuffed and sewed on).  And he added teeth so in his words  "he looked more like a fierce Godzilla and less like a green Barney".

We held our annual Halloween Party the Saturday night before Halloween.  There is nothing better than getting together with your friends over food, drink, sitting outside on a cool evening around the camp fire, and of course s'mores!  And then there are the costumes...







Chris and Garth as rich and poor

Steve and Sara: Something wrong in the neighborhood...who you gonna call?


Chuck and Melanie in Steak and Shake ad


Bryan and Jane as "paradise"



John as not a scary clown


And after handing out candy to trick or treaters on a snowy Halloween night, we headed downtown with friends Kevin and Kathy.  In costume, of course...


Kevin and Kathy as Mr. and Mrs. Beetlejuice

Enjoying the evening at the Slippery Noodle Inn

This year's winner at the Slippery Noodle Inn...the Peanuts Gang.  Awesome costumes!


And so another Halloween has come and gone.  We kinda hate to say goodbye to our favorite holiday where the adults get to be kids again.  And we have such crazy, creative friends.  What's not to love?
