"It's the Great Halloween Thread, Charlie Brown!"

Let's all share our costume ideas! If you need suggestions, you can read through everyone's ideas or even add suggestions of your own!

(BTW..Her Royal Jennyness gets credit for the groovy title to this thread! :good: )

We will add another sticky for pictures as Halloween draws near!

Here are some ideas from a previous thread on the subject!
Raggedy Ann and Andy
2 Peas in a Pod
Tinkerbell and Peter Pan
Salt and Pepper Shakers
Farm Animals, with older child or mom as farmer
Pink and Blue Octopus
Jedi Knights
Superman and Supergirl
M&M's
Minnie Mouse
Thing 1 and Thing 2, with older child or mom as Cat in the Hat
Sunflower and Bumblebee
Pirates
Monkeys, or Monkey See, Monkey Do
Cowboys, with dog as a horse
Pumpkin and Skeleton
Lady Bugs
Dr. Jekkyl and Mr. Hyde

 

I will go first...

Justin...a mummy.
Hannah...a genie.
Josh...a pirate.
Emma...Raggedy Ann.
Jake...Raggedy Andy.

 

Hmmm, I am sure this has been a theme before so its not that original but I am thinking the twins going as some sort of farm animal and my 3 year old the cowgirl. But I am not sold on that one just yet so I cant wait to see all of the options....

Rachel

ps Great title!

 

I have no idea! I have these two pea-in-a-pod costumes that I picked up at a twin rummage, but ... I think I'd rather go with something more boyish, like pirates or hahaha, even those cute baby pumpkin costumes. Just not sure yet!

Maybe one as a scarecrow and one as the tinman or cowardly lion! That would be cute!

 

We are going with Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. We were also considering a cowboy and indian or a cop and robber.

 

Here's the two things I was considering:

Idea 1
David - Tin Man
Emma - Dorothy
James - Scarecrow
Sean - Cowardly Lion

Idea 2
David - Knight (in shining armor)
Emma- Princess
James - Court Jester
Sean - The King

 

my lil monkeys are going to be, what else? MONKEYS!

 

I found the cutest Spider costume for one. What goes with a spider?? Bee? Caterpiller?

LOL! That would be fitting for a 17 yo girl at times!

 

Love the title Jenny!

This is us...

John Eeyore
Kevin Tigger
Patrick Pooh

 

I'll post even though my girls are older:]

Jade is going to be a witch (mom found a really cute costume at a tag sale)
Melissa is going to be a cat -- I had thought she'd be a black cat and that would make sense, but she wants to be a white cat...

Previous Halloweens they were...

A ladybug and a bumblebee
A devil and an angel

The first year they were only 2.5 months old and we didn't dress them up really. Well, they were both wearing all black and black turtlenecks so I said they were Bohemians, but I don't think it really counts.

Sure it does as long as they espoused a life of poverty while following an unconventional lifestyle as free souls, man!

:rotflmbo: :rotflmbo: :rotflmbo:

 

We bought the cutest hats at target - a black cat and a pumpkins, so I might just go with that!

 

I wanted to do

DS-a football player
DDs-cheerleaders

But because it is going to be so much easier we will be doing

Thing 1, Thing 2 and Cat in the Hat (DS)

 

My oldest a princess, my twins will be a pink and blue octopus (costumes from Babystyle).

 

I really wanted them to be salt & pepper shakers, but that may wait until next year when they are more mobile, etc... I am thinking of dressing one as a cow and the other as a horse or pig or sheep??? and me & Dh go as farmers.

 

Pair of Dice

My mom came up w/ this one: Tortoise and the Hare

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum

Ketchup and Mustard

Two Headed Monster (they would really have to cooperate or be babies who still liked to snuggle)

 

Emily decided that she wanted to be a cowgirl, so the girls will be cows I think...however, sheep may be cute too. DH is going to be a cowboy....how cute!

April

 

awww i love babies in costumes! since mine will be waaaay too little at that point to dress them up, we're thinking of dressing them up as turkeys for thanksgiving heehee!

 

ours are going to be a bunny and a teddy bear, all dh and I could agree upon lol

 

Mine are going to be piglet and little roo. We'll pull them around in a wagon with a Pooh stuffed animal and a Tigger stuffed animal. Disney shopping online had a GREAT deal on the costumes plus free shipping and I couldn't pass it up.

 

A monkey and a bannana

 

Cameron and Corey are going to be Darth Vader. This is the only year they will probably be the same thing, but it was to honor their uncle Brandon who passed away from cancer (my son at the age of 22 and a HUGE Star Wars fan)..
Lindy, mom to Stephanie and Nana to
Cameron and Corey

 

Partners in crime

Each babe will have info under them like a mug shot.

 

Monkey "See" and Monkey "Do"

I bought the monkey costumes from Old Navy (so cute!).
Then I'm going to cut out the words "DO" and "SEE" in felt and hot glue it on!

I hope people "get it" because I'm a little worried we might look like dorks!

Very cute! I am sure they will get it!

 

we're doing a monkey and a lion. they don't necessarily go together but we always call Ari a little monkey and Saro a little lion so when Old Navy had both costumes, i snatched them up. Can't wait!
