I know I'm a little late, but we had a Halloween party last night, despite being the day after, and I wanted to share our costumes.

Marco came up with the idea to be mimes and I was able to mostly pull things from our closets to complete our outfits.  I picked up his striped shirt at Joe Fresh and bought white cream make-up for our faces.

For Halloween this year I went as Baroness from G.I. Joe, The Rise of the Cobra.  Although I've never seen the movie (ha!) I think our costumes came out pretty well (and let's be honest, I'll take any chance I can to wear my brunette wig).  

I went to a charity Halloween Party on Saturday and it was a blast.  It's been many years since I've got out for Halloween, despite wanting to for the last few years (but not being able to).  I think it's safe to say I made up for lost time while supporting a great cause.  

Happy Halloween!

As mentioned, I played an Elf on Christmas Eve Eve (last day of work).  Employees are encouraged to bring their kids to work on that day and seriously, when the kids saw Santa, they went nuts.  Totally adorable.

The two main comments that day were, 'That's the tallest elf I've ever seen' and inquiries about whether or not I was in costume.  I was not.  All clothes were from my closet (ha).

 Happy Halloween!  Did you go out last night to a party and get dressed up?  I love dressing up for Halloween and thought I would share my costumes from the past three years.  We have an annual Halloween costume contest at work, which I entered last year (as the leopard) and won second place!  This year, I didn't dress up and people were actually surprised as it was so unlike me.  Tonight, we will be giving out candy to the kiddies, which is always fun.  My girlfriend is even coming over to help as she doesn't have a place to give out candy - fun!

Yes, it's a wig, what do you think of me as a brunette?
