Our Halloween Costumes

We were invited to a Halloween party this year and since things are still weird and crazy with Covid, we thought it would be a better idea to go to the small party than trick or treating. Plus the kids can trick or treat in this gated community.

BUT we needed costumes. Now Rory isn't one to dress up. Like at all. But every so often I can get him to. I told him to think of a group idea and he didn't give me one, so I searched the internet and found a few. I had ideas of being superheroes, but the hosts are being superheroes. Then I thought about Rory being Prince Charming and us girls being princesses. Finally, we decided on Toy Story.

Sutton is going to be Bo Peep, but she didn't want the pants costume. It had to be a dress, so we are going back to the first movie.

Avery has decided to be Jessie, but she also wanted a dress version of the outfit.

I thought about being Buzz Lightyear, but Rory said that it is a boys costume. Psh. So I decided to be Barbie from the 4th movie.

And finally Rory will be Ken. He went back and forth between Woody, Buzz and Ken. Ultimately, he wanted to match me. So Rory will wear this shirt and pair it with some blue shorts that he already has and loafers.

This is the look him and I are going for.

What are you guys doing for Halloween? Will you dress up? Will it be a family costume?

  6. You are going to look so great as Barbie. I can't wait to see pictures of you all dressed up.
    We usually dress up.
    This year we are skipping Halloween.. kind of. The kids Halloween parties are going to be virtual so no fun dressing up. I convinced to go with a minimalist costume of werewolf victims.. lol. And we usually host the annual Halloween party which we also decided to pass on.

    1. OH MY GOD....Mieke is being David. We love that show and I wanted to go as David and Moira for Halloween, but I got the big fat no. Rory hates dressing up as well.
