I tend to gravitate to the horror category myself. Anyway, I like the idea of you both being games. What if Pete was the guy from Operation. You could actually attach the wrench for the wrenched knee to his knee, a bone to his elbow for his funny bone, etc. Or you could interpret those things different. I have searched the internet for ideas before. Although for the life of me I am forgetting them all right now. Cereal killer is kind of cute. You get a bunch of those miniature cereal boxes and stick plastic knives in them and wear them. I will have to do some more research.

I threw a party at my house last year and I was a Rennaisance wench and I got Jeff a knight costume. I had friends show up as a dead bride, Dorothy, Harry Potter...

This year, I think it's ABBA for a bunch of us.

I love Halloween but never dress up - costumes never fit when you weight 400 pounds - now you all have me thinking i might just want to do so since Halloween is on a Saturday!

The last 4 years we have raced home from work to hand out candy... I love watching the kids come around, and in our neighborhood it is mostly toddlers and grade schoolers - we have only seen one couple come around that we felt were "too old" and they were well dressed and cute as a Sheep and Mary who had a little lamb...

Halloween is THE HOLIDAY in our neighborhood - I prepare for about 200-250 kids and then shut my light out when we run out... Last year I did UTZ chips, not sure what we will do this year - the good news is I don't have to worry about keeping the junk in the house because I know I can get enough kids to hand it all out!!

My daughter has informed me that I *have* to dress up this year...lol However, now that I am no longer almost 350 lbs, I just think I might!! I actually feel confident enough about myself to pull off a cute costume. I have no idea what I may be, I will start looking soon!
