It is hard to believe Halloween is here and on its way out. I am hopeful many of you were able to summon up some spirit and dress up - maybe even grab some candy. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love the creativity that goes into it ... and you can always wear glitter and sparkles.
This year I didn't have the usual amount of spirit. I started out strong - wanting to be a tennis player and was planning to have Zoe be my partner. Matching skirts...sweat-bands...tennis balls... But then I had a change of heart. So I teamed up with my sis. (I did have a great last second idea - that I didn't utilize this year... create a missing poster with my picture on it and hang it at the party and then not show up - I find this one pretty hillarious)

Just trying to save a beached whale and gain some community support.
Before I post the following costume entries for my 1st Annual Halloween Costume Contest on the Blog - I want to thank everyone who took a moment to send me their photo or pose for my photos. I truly loved seeing everyone's costumes. Here are the top finishers.
The Swamp Crew and a Darn Cute Alligator
The Crazy Clown and Her Jailbird
Joe Mauer Bobblehead
When Joe Mauer showed up at the party - she had one request/thought - she was sure Joe Vogel would show up in her photo this year (For Joe was the biggest Twins Fan). Joe V. made an appearance for Kathy - (Look on the right hand side).

The Double Dare costume just really hit home with me. I can remember watching the show with my sister and then trying to recreate the obstacles. Good work Steve - I will be sending you your prize.
Well - I am off to catch some sleep here. Sending my love and hoping all of you have a great week.
