Halloween 2011

We threw a 65th Halloween bday costume party for my stepdad the Saturday before Halloween
and always dress up to take the kids trick or treating. 
That means TWO chances to dress up this year (cause who doesn't like dressing up?) :D

We usually throw a little shindig on Halloween night. Chili, trick or treating, projected movie in the backyard by the fireplace... but since it fell on a Monday it was a bit quieter.
Still a lot of fun though :D


I went as Amy Winehouse! I wanted to draw more of her tatoos, but it was a little difficult.
I got her shirt pocket one on the chest that says "Blake's".
RIP you talented beautiful woman! 

Amy, Cop, and White Swan :D

Ah, the outdoor fireplace

Anne, Ruben and their Dark family this year- except lil Shaner's, the cowboy :D

PART TWO: Halloween Night

Bat girl and her hubby and boy joined us for the night.
We dug down into our Halloween box to find a pair of bee wings and 
an old ugly brown mullet wig. WaLa! I just threw on a vintage black dress I had and some tights :D

This is my make-shift bee hive do!
I'll give a tutorial soon on the funky do's from this Halloween.
I was having fun with my waist long hair this year!

Happy Wednesday!
Hope you're having a good week thus far :D

How fun! Only you could have enough hair for a real life bee hive :) And geeze, I didn't even recognize Anne!

Fuuuuun! I love that you folks take Halloween "seriously" enough to make it a whole family tradition. Fun for all! Anne and her fam look awesome and yes, unlike Amy, rest her soul, you do have the real locks to do the magic with. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, family, chili, costumes, trick-or-treat, outdoor fire, sounds a lot like our Halloween! I love your Amy Winehouse hair, too cool!
