This Is Halloween

The weekend was so much fun! A party Friday night with a bunch of lawyers (eek! scary!) and Saturday night too, except a bunch of non-lawyers (phew!). Dante even got to come with me Friday, and the Land Shark was the life of the party (watch the original SNL skit here). The poor dog slept half of Saturday, he was so worn out! (Full disclosure: so did I.)

I'm not the most creative when it comes to costumes, so I was thrilled when I found an Alice in Wonderland costume for more than half off through Disney (bonus points for the skirt being just the right length, i.e. not slutty). All I had to add was bangs, white stockings, black headband and black Mary Janes (three out of four I already had).  Easy peasy! And yes, I totally wore the same thing both nights. And I'll probably rock it next year, and possibly the year after that, just so I feel like I got my money's worth. :)

Alice in Wonderland and the Land Shark = obvious pairing.

First, party at the Otley's Friday night - they had some awesome decorations! Too bad I didn't get any photos of them. (Don't ask why I make such ridiculous faces. I blame the G.A.T.E. program.)

Then Saturday night was the party at Sophia's. Katie was Collette Reardon (unfortunately Colby wasn't feeling well so they had to scrap their original idea) and Nikki and Lindsey were adorable chimney sweeps. Also at the party were some Blues Brothers, Dick in the Box and the "needs more cowbell" guy from SNL among others. :)

I think my favorite costume this year was Katie's, by far. What do you think?

November is turning out to be a crazy month for me. Here's a sampling of what's coming up:

• The SmugMug meeting hosted by the awesome Jasmine Star
• Birthday celebrations for the lovely Lena
• The Orange Historic Home Tour on Sunday
• A free small business lecture (taught by the amazing Tracey Clark!)
• Cheryl visits the 13-17 (so many fun things planned!)
• The Wizard of Oz in theaters (if you love it too, check here to see if there's a screening near you!)
• Another Faded & Blurred photowalk - this time in downtown LA!
• and then its time for Thanksgiving.

Holy heck.

Sooo...how was your Halloween? Did you stay in? Party it up? Take the kids out?

Holy cow, I was LMAO the whole time! Katie's face in those pictures crack me up so much, I want to print it and hang it by my desk for when I need a good smile and laugh.

I of course like a bum stayed in because I felt like I was coming down with a cold, but on actual Halloween we passed out candy so then I felt better.

Between your NOV list and mine, I'm tired already.

I love that you've been blogging more.
