DS is going to be a Ninja ... along with every other boy in his first grade class. I guess Ninjas are the cool thing this year. I remember when my brother was in like 3rd grade Freddy Krueger from Nightmare on Elm Street was the cool costumer and there were like 15 Freddys running around our 'hood. These things come in waves
I haven't decided if I am dressing up yet. Usually I let my DS pick my costumer and usually it matches his. One year we were Luke Skywalker and Princess Lea!

I'm not being anything for Halloween this year, but here's DS' costume. When we asked him what he wanted to be, he said "A doggie, momma. A doggie like Harley!" I was able to find a beagle costume, as Harley is part hound I was actually surprised that out of all his current interests he wanted to be dog.
DS is going to be a construction worker. His costume has all the bells.and.whistles including toy drill,.saw.and etc. He loves gummy fruits and lollypops. He goes nuts for the chocolate kisses too.

OMFG....seriously, PiP. Your kid makes me love halloween. I can't even tell you....
I love Halloween, and I usually love picking out what I'll be, but this year I'm trying to save money. Luckily, my friends are weird enough to keep like, every single costume they have ever worn, so I have a plethora of free options. I am currently debating between a hippie, a penguin, or a mermaid.

Seriously your kid is freaking adorable!
I am being a sailor like last year. Im recycling because last year I was at exbf house party. I figure I wont see any of the same people this year.....
Bully, I don't understand the words you are making.
XH LOVED halloween. And so it was a big fucking production every year. And I don't know why because it was just an excuse for him to get drunker than normal. So my halloween nights were always spent babysitting his drunk, stupid ass.

I totally relate. My EXH used to get so drunk and obnoxious that he would actually start throwing candy at children and at one point tried to pass out dried cranberries instead of candy. I had to literally babysit his ass too.

A kid from Harry Potter (probably Ginny Weasley as Harry/Herminone are taken!)
I'm dressing up with a good friend and her two little kiddos...I've always wanted to do Harry Potter, so we got the kids on board and we're doing it! WE have grad gowns from Goodwill, she knitted us scarves, made us wands out of sticks/spray paint...I'm super excited.

I am not dressing up this year (first time in 13 years) because I'll be at a wedding. HOWEVER, I'm hoping there might be some sort of Halloween festivities on Friday night in Madison so I'm packing something just in case.
DD is going to be a zombie One Direction guy....her friends are doing the same.
DS wants to be a Lego Ninjago dude....I haven't started his costume yet (mom fail!)
Candy....always go for the good stuff....Snickers, Milky Way, Milk Duds!
:::runs away before GOZF starts throwing candy and pumpkins at me:::
I did, too, until this year (after 33 long years, someone FINALLY invited me to a Halloween party). And since getting a costume was such a fuck of an experience, I think I might still hate it.
Seriously, what the motherfuck is the deal with all the costumes for women in Halloween stores looking like something Adult Mart would deem too tasteless?

BUT I still love Halloween. HA!
Not funny.....but so funny....
Oh yeah it was not funny at the time as I had to try to lock a grown man in the house so he wouldnt embarass me in front of the neighbors.
God I feel bad for the current chick. She hasnt been with him for a Halloween yet.....

That's why I never bought a costume "kit". I always made my own stuff...that way I could control the skank level!
