Kids' Halloweem Costumes

Well the Baby Mama Drama Response Unit has been officially activated!!! I have 2 of my daughters planning to dress as Sundae for Halloween because they think she is "kewl"!! LOL. My oldest girl is going as the Mad Hatter. I'll be posting pics as they work on their costumes.

What are your children dressing as???

Maybe this should go in the "Blue laws" thread,
but PDX schools have banned Halloween and costumes this year.

It's not clear if they are using a vailed (religious) reason or dress code.
In any case, the holiday is now going to be a "Harvest" celebration
Once again I realize why I would not want to be a school administrator... no one is happy.

I liked what one (unhappy) parent said:
Quote:
“We live in America,” parent Rebekah Clark told KGW Thursday.

“We have the right and freedom to celebrate whatever we want.”

I'm going to answer the door to trick or treaters with a blood-oozing slash on my right cheekbone. I'll be one of Dexter's victims.

Nevermind, apparently minds have been changed again. Now he's Buzz Lightyear, and she's a pirate.

This summer my youngest niece (was 5 almost 6) told her mom, when her mom asked her what theme she wanted for her birthday party: there are two things you never have to ask me, what I want for my birthday party (spongebob) and what I want to be for halloween (cat.)

We're saving all the spongebob pinatas to decorate her future spongebob wedding.
