Halloween

Last year Jackie was a samurai babe for Halloween, an outfit that brought several strangers to our blog. This year her department decided to dress as characters from the movie Mystery Men. Jackie went as Casanova Frankenstein's mistress.

On Halloween night we went up to Midway to hang out with John, Beth and their kids. Jack was a cowboy and Lily was a cowgirl.


The kids had quite the entourage with them as they went trick or treating

At the last minute, Jackie and I decided to dress up. We decided to be Mozambicans. Jackie is wearing her capulana (skirt) and carrying her bag on her head. I got my sweet pants on and I'm walking around, trying to sell my batiks. I do this by saying English words like "beautiful", "yes", "blue", "Lion King", and "50 dollars".

Looks like you two had an awesome Halloween! Love Jackie's costume in the 1st shot--did you make it!?!?

We are glad you both had fun, along with Bob and Annie, John and Beth, Jack and Lily. Our assumption is that, even with you great pitch, sales of your Mozambique tuff was limited. Are we right?

weird. that was our costume idea, as well. unfortunately, my sweet pants have a 7-inch hole in the crotch, so we went with flight of the conchords instead. it's basically the same thing, tho, right?
