Ahh Halloween is almost upon us.
Lets take a look back at past Halloween's since 2009...because before that everything was just a hot mess in my life. 2009 = Caleb and I started dating. AKA - Caleb is the glue in my life.
For some reason we thought it was a great idea to go as Dave Thomas and Wendy. We realized too late that we were playing father-daughter...that's not creepy, right? This meant I basically had to find a rag doll costume and de-sluttify it. Add some white and red striped leggings under that skirt? Voila!
Caleb also saw it fit to spray paint his entire head of hair, and facial hair white... let me tell you, it took like a week to come out.
The next year, 2010, I borrowed a costume from a friend of a friend and went as a flapper. For some odd reason...Caleb went as a bowling ball. He tried desperately to make me go as a bowling pin. No thanks, babe.
Also see below, Jared and Erin win best costume EVAAA!
Can someone please tell Caleb those look like boobs...not eyes.
The next year, 2011...Caleb and I got kind of creative on a budget.
Yes, those are Mens boxers from Walmart, but they were $5 and Caleb made that impressive "shield" from cardboard. We win! ;)

| Erin...er, Cleopatra, and I! |
On ACTUAL Halloween, I helped Caleb's family pass out candy...and threw on a witch hat. Totally a costume, right?!
& this was last year... 2012. Caleb and I hadn't thought about our costume basically until the day of. So, what did we do? Headed to Walmart, Spencers, etc...and made us some new superhero costumes...AGAIN.
Batman and Robin, y'all.
Freaky thing is...dude totally sounds like batman when he tries.
& there's Jared and Erin, the pirates!
& we usually end the night with glow sticks...its kind of our thing!
I hope everyone has a safe Halloween next week!
Ahhh I love it!! That flapper outfit is HOT! And yes.... those bowling ball eyes totally look like boobs!
ReplyDeleteGahh I just LOVE costumes! And couple costumes are always so fun :-) My best friend and I once went as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum and had the best time! It was a competition to us to have the most unique costumes haha (we got beat out by the Trolls that year - jerks). You all look like you have so much fun during Halloween!
ReplyDeleteSo fun! Love the last minute Batman and Robin duo. I was Wendy a few years ago, but Drew went as the Frisch's big boy instead of Dave. Haha. Yeah we totally won best couples costume that year.
ReplyDeleteHahaha dave thomas and wendy! The superheros costumes definitely rock!! Last year Peter and I finally did a couples one..we were ice climbers from Mario, I had no idea who they were but we got to dress in puffy jackets and kept warm :) They were really fun to make together too! I have no idea what to be this year eek!
ReplyDeleteperfect. perfect. seriously, come help me and my husband out.
ReplyDeleteyou're so very darling.
hahaha omg I'm dying! these are all awesome! you've had some really great costumes!! thanks for linking up sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteHahaha. the bowling ball????? bahahaha!! I'm dying laughing
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this!!! I remember seeing all of those costumes in pictures each year! You guys do a great job! Erin and Jared, too. I wish we lived closer so Nate and I could join in on all the fun :( :(
ReplyDeleteI still laugh at Caleb's bowling ball costume any time I see it! Boo to not having anywhere to dress up for this year!
ReplyDeleteThey do look like bowling ball boobs! But still...cutesies costumes. I'd take your help with ideas any day ;)
ReplyDeletehahah it is so good that you have all these, it will make quite and interesting series in a few more years ;) Since we've been married, we've been trying to come up with some partner costumes. I'm digging the batman and robin ;)
ReplyDeleteThese Halloween costumes are SO much fun - I love all of them! Especially the flapper. Gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteI love Halloween so much! Those are some pretty great costumes - I love Batman and Robin! Can't wait to see what you do this year!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the costumes, especially the superhero ones. You guys are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThese costumes are so fancy . LOVE them all . Well , I pretty much took these "booby eyes" as just eyes at first!!
ReplyDeleteI can't decide if I want to laugh or groan at the Dave Thomas/Wendy thing. Yes, it's a good idea, but yes, there was an unintentional creep factor. Tell me he didn't use actual spray paint?
ReplyDeleteYou are darling. so so festive! You need to talk some sense into my Halloween grouch husband:) xo
ReplyDeleteI feel like you are the most gorgeous person....yes, you definitely are. I can't decide which Halloween costume of yours I like the best! You are pretty creative. I am usually the one wearing normal clothes (aka the boring one)
ReplyDeletebahaha I love these!
ReplyDeleteYOU WERE ME FOR HALLOWEEN LAST YEAR?! I keep trying to make Dom be Batman so I can be Robin, but he's boring and says Halloween is for kids so we have NEVER dressed up! SO sad!!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! They totally look like boobs! I'm so jealous, I love love love Halloween and I always have to nag Hal to dress up. You guys make it look so fun, maybe I'll show him this to get him to do it with me. I think I'm going as Liz lemon this year. All I need is a bucket of cheetos. I love that you said de slutify, it's so true, they're all so slutty.
ReplyDeleteLove your creativity on a budget! I think those costumes always turn out the best!
ReplyDeleteIs it TMI to tell you that G totally has those superman boxer briefs? Hahah. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're adorable, as always K.
