Happy Halloween, Y'all!!

As you probably already noticed, David and I are all about Halloween!  We will never be "too old" or "too cool" to dress up!

This year, David was Batman (just like the previous 2 years) and I was the villain in the new movie, Bane.  We always have so much putting costumes together.  His costume, however, is always the same.  He actually had this custom made - it is movie quality.  Crazy, I know.  If you've ever heard me talk about being married to Batman, now you know why!

This was my "try to be sexy" face...I should've tried harder!

My mom came up and went to the annual Ghouls Gone Wild Parade.  She is a witch every day year!  HAHA just kidding mom! :)

Doesn't she look just like the Wicked Witch?!?!  Her drawn on mole is just fabulous!

We stopped so many freakin' times so everyone could get their picture taken with Batman (babies, kids, grown men, girls dressed as sluts, older women that flung themselves on him and one even gave him a kiss on the cheek) that we almost forgot to get one of us.  Side note: Pardon the quality of the pictures - I didn't want to drag my big camera around.



This is little Batman...isn't he cute?!?!  His mom made this costume for him!

And this is the grown-up Batman - yep, that's his Batmobile in the back.  He actually took the Chevy symbol off and replaced it with "BATMAN"  in black chrome letters.  We can never sit at a stop light without someone taking a picture of it...we're kind of a big deal.

And speaking of girls dressed at sluts....here are my costumes from the past 2 years - Jokette and Robinista.  I love turning the guy villains into the slutty girl version!  I never feel slutty when I'm wearing them...but then I look at pictures and all I see are boobs...OOPS!
This is my work costume this year...80's Rocker Chick.  I wasn't going to dress up for work but I decided to at the last minute.  I had most of the stuff but ran around like crazy last night finding the little detail pieces.

I tried to find one of these t-shirt things (can't remember the name) and couldn't anywhere...how dare they not make these anymore!  So the hubs made me one out of foam and duck tape :)

This was very fitting for Laura!

Kim - the Witch Fairy, Laura - the Devil, Kim - the Leopard, Me - the Rocker, and Margaret - the Witch

We had so much fun....next year everyone in the office is dressing up!  Do you understand me girls....EVERYONE!!!

Happy Halloween!!

    I love this! Your costumes are so good. We are going to the premier of The Hobbit at the end of November and my partner wants us all to dress as hobbits, which I wasn't too excited about, but maybe I will slutty it up a bit haha.

    You guys are awesome! I love his costume and that you join in every year as someone different. You both always look amazing!! I remember those t-shirt things! I actually saw them at Target about 5 years ago in the dollar bin. I should have got some!

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Halloween Treats

For work gifts this year, I used these free printables  and these free printables  to make these cute little treats!  I had a lot of fun making them.  I dragged my poor mom and David around to so many stores looking for different colored Tic Tacs and eyeball candy.  I wanted very badly to make the Vampire Vitamins...who knew it would be so hard to find red Tic Tacs! I also made this easy Halloween Bark. What You Need:   1 Package Halloween Oreos Candy Corn 2 Packages Wilton Candy Melts in White Halloween Sprinkles - I ended up using different sprinkles than the ones in the picture...a girl has a right to change her mind, right? Pretzels - I stole these out of our Trick-or-Treat bowl because I felt like it needed something to offset all the sweetness. 1. Crumble up the Oreos.  I crushed some by hand, some in my food processor and broke some in halves and some in fourths.  Spread out on cookie sheet over wax/parchment paper.  Sprinkle candy corn

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

I was on this blog today and she was talking about how women spend so much money on wedding dresses.  It reminded me of my wedding and then I realized I've never blogged about it!!!  It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!!  Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress.  I knew exactly what I wanted.  I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress.  I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress.  (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!)  So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much.  I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH.  It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress.  You can't really tell from this pic,
