Happy Halloween! Dressing up is not our forte, but it was required for Will and Karen's party last weekend. They had their house decked out, and it was a fun night comparing get-ups, eating yummy fix-ins, and playing games. We really enjoyed their main party game--put the name of several people everyone should know, and basically do charades. Good times.Will and Karen stole the show with their Ken and Barbie attire. Too bad most of these shots are not full-body! The two best parts of this outfit: Ken's hair and Barbie's clunker boots.
Here's her boots, and our miserable attempt at "Sweet Home Alabama":
Dave and Julie from the 50s:
Rusty and Mandy's Kenmore machines:
Mike and Holly as Burger King and Dairy Queen:
Dawn and Jeff as Cleopatra and Pharoah:
Nic and Heidi as the couple from "Juno":
The most original...Dale and Geneiveve as Exterminator and Pest:
Wendy and John as a Queen and Napolean Dynamite (love those boots):
...and if you didn't figure out we were Captain Jack and Elizabeth, it could be due to the fact that we look nothing like them in real life, eh? Will and Karen bailed us out by lending us former costumes, and we reused them at our ward halloween party Friday night. Karen actually made the parrot to go with the themed Pirate-outfits.

Zachary loved tromping around in his outfit, and later without his outfit and (heaven forbid) stripped down to his onesie. I have a zero-tolerance policy about the onesie-only look, but rules are made to be broken???
Hope you enjoyed Halloween. Bring on the holidays!!!

We love your costumes! Though we don't know much about "Pirates of the Carribean", we think they must have had good taste in parrots. Send him flyin' our way!
You guys look great! What a fun hawaiian halloween! The little parrot with pirates is so creative!
What a cute little parrot, you guys look awesome! Sounds like you guys had a fun party. We are going to have to remember those costume ideas. Tell Will and Karen "hi".
Fun!

Your costumes were great! Karen, I'm super impressed with your handiwork with Zac's parrot get-up! And great job on your run - you're too hard on yourself!
Oops, unintentially misleading. Karen S. made the parrot. I cannot sew.
Isn't Halloween great! Way to dress up, it's the best part. You guys looked great!!! The cutest parrot I've ever seen!
oh, gotcha. i was thinking DANG! i've been trying my hand at sewing and you're already better than me!but you're a quick study, so i guess i thought it was possible. haha.
I was shocked too when I thought you made the parrot costume... I was thinking.."Man, Karen schooled me! Dang it!"
Really awesome parrot costume. There is nothing like custom kid costumes.
Dreams do come true:
"If I could have Johnny Dep, it would be as a pirate."
Also, the parrot is awesome! Way to go little homemaker!
You guys look great, but Zac definitely stole the post. And I know for a fact that I couldn't catch you in any race, Karen! Nice score with the Hilton. Maybe you should save it until we come. (just kidding.)
Love your costumes. It was fun seeing the party pics too.
