I was super excited this year about Halloween. I knew way in advanced what I wanted to be and started working on my costume in August. I wanted to be Lady Gaga. I think I did a pretty good job if I say so my self. I created the outfit and sewed it together/ bedazzled it.
Anne did my makeup , which took longer than you think

The whole Outfit.
Travis went as a Golden Shower due to the fact that he wanted til Friday around 6 to make a costume
I had a lot of fun with the costume, but we had parties to go to both Friday and Saturday and come saturday I was a little over it. I have decided that next year I am not wearing a wig. They are such a pain and itchy as all get out. Not to mention something with easier makeup, and pants. This also make two year in a row I haven't wore pants. I was excited to have a costume change for Saturday night. After my work party we were going to go to Por Vida (see below) a Mexican Dios de los Meurtos (Day of the Dead). I spent Saturday making masks for the boys and I and thinking of an outfit.
Unfortunately I never made it to Por Vida, due to an awful migraine. I was so upset I didn't get to go. I sent the boys with out me and laid in bed. I didn't even drink Saturday night. I am not sure if it was from a hangover, though I didn't really have one or I have not had a migraine in a while so I was just due for one. So Lessons Learned for Halloween 2010
-No wigs
-Wear Pants
-If there are two days of festivities, make drunk night, the SECOND night
-Don't let your boyfriend wait til last minute to make his costume
