What are your dk's going as this year?

[angie r]

I just love seeing all the kids in those cute costumes!! Last year we had some neighbors that had these elaborate Wizard of Oz costumes. This year ds is going to be a Ninja. I bought his costume at JoAnn etc. Dd is Minnie Mouse, her costume came from the Disney Store. Dress, gloves, shoes, ears and handbag. She looks sooo sweet in it!!

No clue!! I was thinking of getting them costumes at The Disney Store and having them go as Woody and Bullseye. Ds was Buzz last year and we go with his cousins - thought it would be fun for his cousin to be Buzz this year. My brother also told me that Old Navy has costumes so I am going to check online for those.... Would love to hear what everyone else is doing!!


btw - Congrats on post #1000 angie!

Okay, just checked out Old Navy and didn't see anything I liked for my dks. I am so stumped this year and want to figure something out before there's nothing to choose from. Oldest ds wants to be a Power Ranger - I'd like to tempt him with something other than that!!

well, I guess I should start thinking about this huh......I know dd wants to be Jasmine from Aladdin, but the disney store costume is pretty pricey....I guess I could look around...ds is going as a Dinosaur, the costume was hand made a few years back for my nephew...who is now 18 yikes.....have fun figuring it all out....

Hadn't even thought about it when dd came in yesterday and said "I want to be a genie for Halloween"..guess I need to look for a genie costume.
DS..not sure what he will do or be.

We've always gone with homemade costumes and/or makeup. One year a puppy, a rabbit, Robin Hood (ds liked the green tights so much he would wear them under his pants for warmth till he outgrew them ), Dracula. One year we made a huge letter P and blackened his eye (black-eyed pea). Last year he didn't go trick or treating and this year he says he just wants to pass out candy. We'll see if he changes his mind.

If you are going to order anything from the Disney Store you'd better hurry. They were already sold out of the Minnie Mouse and weren't getting any more in. We had to order off the net and BTW they have free shipping right now.

As of now, (and this could change...you know kids!)

ds#1 baseball player (using some of his Little League clothes)

ds#2 king (He was invited to a "princess party" a couple of months ago..., and dressed as a king)

So far, no costumes to buy!

[TXmom]

Oh, this was so much easier when they were little and I could just dress them in what I wanted! I saw the greatest alien costume a while back but can't talk anyone into being one. Oldest ds was supposed to be done with trick-or-treating, but it's supposed to be such fun down here that he's planning on 1 more year. I'm sure he'll want to be something gory. Middle ds wants to be the grim reaper, but I refuse. We showed youngest ds an adorable skeleton costume, but he doesn't like it. I may just recycle one of our MANY ninja costumes for him. Or Batman. We've got tons of those and he'd love that maybe.

ds is going as a puppy, same as last year.

dd has not made her mind up as usual. She will probably rifle through her dress up drawer at the last minute and "invent" something.

How timely this post is! DS came home yesterday saying "I am going to do the most fun thing for Halloween. A group of the guys and I are dressing up and going out together...I am going to be Santa Clause and they are going to be characters from Cereals...Captain Crunch, Snap Krackle and Pop, Trix Rabbit" LOL OK babe...not sure how Santa fit in! LOL

I saw the cutest idea that even I could make and am trying to talk dd into doing. Take a hula hoop and run a shower curtain around it. Take some ribbon and make arm straps (the curtain will sit on top of your shoulders then drap down the body) On the back of the curtain attach some pvc pipe going straight up and then fashion out of tin foil a "shower head" have some blue streamer paper coming out of it for water. The idea is supposed to look like someone standing in the shower.
Hope the description made since! LOL

I have every year tried to get my gets to go as a tv and a remote control..but they won't! LOL

The way this post popped up on my screen, all I saw was "ds-shaggy" and I thought to myself "cool, the rapper? but how would dress like him, I didn't think he had a distinct look!" ROFL!!!
