Happy Halloween!!

Hey, I know I am really lame lately on the recipe sharing lately sorry… I really haven’t been cooking anything that wonderful, if it takes longer that 10 minutes I don’t make it.  And so we have had some pretty random meals lately.

So today, I thought I would show you our AWESOME (if I say so myself) Halloween costumes.  (what is up with uploading pictures on blogger, it is totally not working urgh!)

This is another one of those costumes we have been wanting to do for years.  I almost didn’t do it, but since Justin and I went on our first date on Halloween, it is an important holiday for us, and I really like to go all out.

Long live the Trekkies!

To go where no man has gone before…

Live long and prosper.

This year we were Trekkies.  Justin and I have been planning this one for years.  It all came down to last minute though, like always but it worked out.

Etta is a Klingon (notice the front French braid, that is her forehead, and then she has the metal band thingy Warf always wore.  That and she likes to Cling-on to us, so i thought it was appropriate.

I was Dax.  I have spots all over the edge of my face.  I found the picture on line and thought that would be easy make up.  Then our friend who remembered the name of the character said that she was the host of a parasite that was thousands of years old, and I thought it was even more appropriate, since I too am a host to a little sweet parasite!

Justin is the captain.  He found that our hand winding flashlight were the perfect laser guns and he was happy.

All told a happy family and I must admit these were probably the easiest costumes I have made/altered.  It only took about 2 days of random work here and there.

But the tradition of our first date (Halloween 2000) lives on and that is the important part!

Picture overload starts now.
