I want your love and I want your... robot

I won't lie, this Halloween was pretty Halloweenish, if you catch my drift. There were parties (3) and a work event that all demanded Halloween costume excellence. (You may have already read my costume post here, if so, I apologize if you've read some of this before.)

At any rate, in August, I came across the perfect Lady Gaga wig, and I just had to buy it. I knew this costume wouldn't be the most original idea in the world, so I thought it would be key to find a more obscure look that I could mimic. When I stumbled across the all-black look in the "Bad Romance" video, I knew I had a winner.

So I bought some items from F21 and made myself a wicked-cool crown out of black poster board and black lace. (And yes, it is the most crafty thing I've ever done to date.)

The husb decided to use one of our favorite television shows for his inspiration:

He got a couple of boxes, some aluminum foil and construction paper, and had a lot of fun with silver spray paint. 

Consequently, we became Lady Gaga and her robot, which in my opinion, kinda really worked.

We got to hang out with lots of friends who also had fabulous costumes.

 

And in all, we had a great Halloween. Hope you all did too!

A Halloween post is in the works...

in the mean time, you can read about the evolution of my costume here.

Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween!

Happy Halloween darlings...

We apologize that this post is a bit belated... but we were a bit busy de-zombifying ourselves. (It's quite an exhaustive process, actually.)

Our zombie selves enjoyed a lovely fete filled with The Dark Knight, an 80's Prom King and Queen, a couple of incredible basketball players, a Lord and his Lady and some kids who think they're super heroes (shh... don't tell them... they think they're infallible.) We had lots of fun and can't wait to see what everybody comes up with next year.

Meet Batman and Batgirl

Thanks to Target (yes, my costume is a child's medium) and a wonderful online store that I don't know the name of, husband and I were able to fight crime, er have a lovely Halloween.

My mask (made for an eight year old) gave me a bit of a headache. Husband's just made him hot.

Our superhero super-in-love shot. (Sorry Robin... I love Batman.)

I heart Halloween

Because I get to dress up in fun (not skanky) costumes and eat candy and stuff. And now I have a HOTT husband that dresses up with me.

But one of my most favoritest things about Halloween is Count Chocula cereal. And one of my favorite people in the entire world just sent me, not one, but TWO boxes of this delectable treat. (I couldn't find it anywhere in SLC, husband and I even quested for it one night to no avail. Husband quested multiple nights without me too, bless his heart.) Thanks Kenna, you are one of my besties and I love your guts. You seriously made my Halloween.

Nobody gets between Batgirl and her Count Chocula.

A 'Lil Halloween Celebration

I have been told by some who have viewed this blog that I do not post enough pictures on it. Well, this will be a post mostly dominated by said pictorials. Last Saturday, Greg and I hosted a little Halloween shin-dig that proved to be quite enjoyable. Here is some of the evening captured in glorious pictures. (Hopefully Shelly will enjoy this.)
