Anybody have any hot ones this year for you, your kids or grandkids? Any favorites from years past?
One year a friend of mine went as "the internet". he had a rope light wrapped around himself, a headlamp, blank cd's and dvd's attached to himself, some printouts, maybe some slinky's dangling off himself- the only drawback was that he had to be relatively close to an outlet as he had to plug himself in.

Thanks, MG! It's hard to believe they are now 25 and 28, and are parents! |

A couple of random thoughts...
KantuckEE -- are you sure it was fake? 
GG -- you could just wear paper panties and go as a lamb chop!  |

That would have been funny, GG, but sort of hot and crinkley!
I located my photo of my little Mickey and Minnie. Justin was 5 and Jocelyn was 2.

Note that Minnie even has a bow on her head that matches her dress!

A few years ago my daughter went to a party as a hospital patient in a hospital gown with a fake nekked butt sticking out the back. That was a hoot! |

3 of my 4 grandsons came by trick or treating. They were "Scream" from the movie (I think), Arkansas Razorback Football Player and the 3 year old was a black and white cow. Cute! They had enough candy to put us all in a diabetic coma! |

I wasn't home this year for last night's celebrations. But for the past several years, I have dressed in my 18th century clothing. Last year, I had on a blue linen gown and petticoat... fairly up-scale... and sat on my big front porch on my 18th-century style chair with my candle lantern on a little table beside me. On my lap, I had a fabric flag -- the Bennington '76 flag -- upon which I was "stitching." Yes, many of the adults got who I was!
When my kids were little, I always made all of their costumes. My very favorites were when they were Mickey and Minnie Mouse. They had black arms and leggings, black tight-fitting hoods with cute round ears that stood out, and stuffed tails that wobbled back and forth from their rear-ends as they walked. Justin's had dark trousers and a red-checked shirt, and Jocelyn's had a short little red print dress. I drew mouse faces on them, and they were absolutely adorable! |

My brother and I won 1st prize at a contest in a local movie theater, many, many years ago, as an organ grinder and his monkey.
And then, in 1978 [I think it was?], there was this:
