I'll tell ya what gang....reading this thread made me realize that we have to get a lot more serious about being in costume for Halloween (Jeez, should I even have admitted that we are not good sports about being in costume?eeeeee!!!!!). We never seem to have any time, we're always rushing like crazy before the 1st kid gets to the door. These guys refuse to dress up in this house and me, I've always worn the witch costume.
I already told them that this year we are all dressing up. Last season when I was so sick I did not wear my costume and I was shocked at the amount of both kids & adults that commented to me about it. To be honest I did not realize it meant that much to them. SO this year we are going to work on that.
Rob, I hope I have enough talent to use one of these appliances on Jerry. I mean he works the kitchen which is known as the "Cadaver Cafe & Candykitchen" all the kids & parents go that way & have to visit with him.....they would be absolutely shocked to see him in a Zombie Chef outfit. We also could do the Butcher thing cause he worked as a meatcutter here before retirement so we have those meat gloves & big white heavy coats & aprons and even a few hooks. I'm gonna work on him!!!
As for Joe I hoped he would be the Rodeo Clown Bullrider....as he was a real bull rider so he has chaps, spurs, hats the rope the bull wears with the big bell, the number that is attached to your back and we could put an appliance on him too. AAhhh yes Zombie Bullrider from Hell!!
Wish me luck guys in persuading them........this sure was an inspirational thread to help me push them along. Great ideas here for costumes!!
