Nope! I don't have the resources, time or creativity for that, lol. I can't remember the last time I dressed up, honestly.

^^ I hear ya on the reasons. This is the first time I will be dressing up myself in a very long time. I think the last time was when I was in college and went to a halloween party. The neighborhoods we go to for trick or treating usually have ALOT of parents that do dress up. One year when Caden was a baby my DH dressed up with an Afro wig and a gold tooth..ha ha... I was surprised, but he got alot of compliments.......

LMAO!

I'm not dressing up this year. Just because I'm lazy. Halloween costumes for adults are super expensive, also!! Maybe in a couple years when Leah will really appreciate me dressing up, I'll do it

I'm not dressing up...and I had such big plans to do halloween right up for her this year, and it's just not working out that way. I even had to suck it up and cheat with a $20 kitty costume from bonnie togs!

^^^Becky, same here. I was all into having Grace and Caleb match. Grace is going as Ariel and I was going to dress Caleb as Sabastian....Well I can't find a crab costume for him anywhere and I just don't care anymore. So, he's wearing a giraffe costume I got at a consignment show.

I'm not dressing up...maybe I will next year.

Ugh... Keira is pressuring us to be Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. So, I too had this grande scheme to have Kaila be the the lion, and Kellen the scarecrow and maybe I'd be the tin man and dh the Wizard. Well, that just takes waaaaay to much time and resources, lol.

So, I'm thinking Keira can be Dorothy because she's the only one who has a real opinion and the rest of the kids can where a sheet...lol. No, seriously, I have to figure out something cheap and cute for the little two. Dh and I will go as parents with adult beverages.

No I am not dressing up. Dh and I dressed up every halloween until we had Julia and now we dont have time/energy/interest anymore

Dh and I used to love to dress up though! We were Jack and Rose from Titantic one year, and another year we were Batman and Catwoman, and another time I was Dorothy from Wizard of Oz and dh was the Tornado!!

I am thinking about it....the only costumes I still own are definitely not "kid friendly". They were worn to fraternity parties in college. I might have to go buy a mommy costume. We were actually thinking about going as olive oil and popeye.
