Halloween Costumes

As promised, here’s an overview of our Halloween costumes!

(l-r) Emily the cat, Alyssa the pirate (with a question, apparently), Sarah as Robin da Hood, and Erin the present.

(l-r) Corey as Three-Hole Punch Jim, Alyssa again, and Alyssa’s-boyfriend-Brent as Steve. No Steve in particular, just Steve.

(l-r) Taylor as a Chilean miner (too soon?), Sarah, Corey, Alyssa’s-boyfriend-Brent, Alyssa, and Sean as the Mad Hatter.

Twas a very good Halloween. We even made it into the local bar’s Facebook photo album!!

For the comments: It may be a bit late, but what did you do for Halloween?

Self-discovery

living room, 9pm

Sarah: Modern family?

Alyssa: Yeah, of course.

(everyone sits down in front of the TV)

Alyssa: What? Country Music? CMAS?!? (country music awards)

Emily: oh, poo.

Alyssa: Is there anything else we can watch? ANYTHING?

Friend Taylor: um...ultimate cage fighting?

Emily: This sucks.

9:15 pm

Alyssa: Huh. Her shoes are like 6 inches high. How is she walking?

Emily: craziness...and crazy we're still watching this.

Sarah: yeah.

Emily: actually, come to think of it, I've seen a lot of these people in concert...that one...and that one...and that one...and that one. (All by accident. My tiny no-name town happens to be home of a HUUUUUUGE country music festival every year. We get a lot of people who are famous/become famous within three weeks of the concert, along with Flamin' Dick & The Hot Rods, a regional favorite.)

10 pm

Alyssa: WHAT? GWYENTH PALTROW SINGS COUNTRY?

Emily: huh?

Alyssa: she's making her debut tonight.

Emily: well, now we have to keep watching.

Emily: um....I...um...I actually kind of like this song. *

Alyssa: .....me too.

Friend Sean: Wow, how this night has gone. From "I hate the CMAs" to "I like this song."

who knew?
