This year Ryan and I had not one, but two Halloween costumes. (It may have been due to the fact that Ryan was a little embarrassed about our first costume choice.) Our Halloween costumes must fit two different criteria... they have to be homemade, and we have to have thought of it and put it together in under an hour.
As difficult as that sounds, here is what we came up with.
We went to our ward trunk or treat party and we decided to be....*drum roll please*
Feeling a little nostalgic for Christmas
Robot Box
We also went to a family Halloween party. To spare Ryan from having to go in a red sparkly box with a bow (which he got stuck in), we decided on something a little more manly.
What was kitty you ask?
Catzilla!
Also, Halloween wouldn't be complete without some pumpkin carvings!! Ryan taught me how to use pumpkin stencils. It takes quite a bit of hand muscles let me tell you what. It was quite the work out. Next time you see me, remind me to show you my buff hand muscles.
Ryan did the 2 on the left. One without a stencil and one with. Mine is on the right.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
