Halloween 2008

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween. Nick and I attended my sister's annual Halloween party. It was a blast! And we weren't the first ones to leave (though we were the first ones to arrive). There was quite the assortment of costumes. Of course there were the politically inspired, Sarah Palin, Joe Six-Pack, and a Bridge to Nowhere. But the teachers (most of the party attendants) came out with some creative costumes including a Hester Prynne.



Here are a few pictures of our costumes...


Susie as Rosie the Riveter and her roomate as Amelia Earhart after her crash (morbid I know, but to M. its not Halloween if there isn't blood...). Both are history teachers, go figure. Susie actually wore her costume to school!

Nick and me as people from the movie Aliens. I am a victim with an alien coming out of my stomach (what else can a 5-month pregnant woman go as?) Nick went as a marine from the movie. Later in the night, Nick also became a victim when he broke out the face-hugger alien mask...

Rosie just wanted to beat up the alien. So many people were taking pictures of us at this moment we are both laughing so hard we are crying...seriously.

And one for the grandparents....
