Halloween Costume Parade

Are you a LAST MINUTE Halloween costume designer... like me? It's 2 days away from our annual "trunk or treat" and I haven't planned one thing for costumes for the boys. Jackson wants to be a handsome scary guy. I guess that means he wants to wear a church suit and have a scary face? Logan wants to be Jeremy Mcgrath, the dirt biker. Seems easy enough because we already own two dirt bike outfits, but he doesn't like either of those for his Halloween costume. I should be at Goodwill right now shopping for the necessary items to make their dress up dreams happen. But instead, I'm sitting here on Pinterest looking in awe at the amazing costume ideas that people come up with!

  1. I love the owl costumes! And if my husband and I needed costumes, I would totally grab a pitchfork and large picture frame and go as the American Gothic painting! ~ Barbara
