My family takes Halloween very seriously.
We don’t mess around when it comes to costumes.
Even during my most awkward years of life, dressing up was something I looked forward to all year long.
And trick-or-treating still happens at the ripe old age of 25. The blessing of having neices and nephews to take around trick-or-treating and the sweet souls in my parents neighborhood that still offer me candy because they know I love it so much.
So, here is the DEALIO……
The sis and I are running the Provo Halloween Half-Marathon and we are dressing up big time!! We are hoping to win (the costume contest, not the actual race).
We have our costumes decided on (we are going to be the same thing) but I wanted to play a game with you.
The first person to correctly guess WHAT WE ARE DRESSING UP as will be sent their most favorite treat/candy package ever. I will tell you once the costume has been guessed but I will not tell you who won because I don’t want to give it away until the race. If you guess correctly I will email you and ask you for your favorite treats and address……
Get creative:) Ready, Set, GO!!!
Anyone else already have their costumes picked out?

I am so curious to know the answer! What about those 2 people costumes where you are attached – like siamese twins, or an animal where one person is the head+front 2 legs and the other person is the butt+back 2 legs. It would be so hard to run like that but it’d be HILARIOUS to watch!
Courtney
Gosh, there have been a lot of good guesses! I’m going to go with Black Eyed Peas (not the band, but a play on words with P’s on your shirts and black paint smeared around your eyes) or Mario and Luigi or Forest Gump! :)
Courtney
For some reason I don’t see my comment showing up, so I’m going to try one more time! Black Eyed Peas (not the band, but P’s on your shirts and black smeared around your eyes)? Mario and Luigi?

Princess Leia? Smurfs?
Marianne

It is the most horrifying show I’ve ever watched. It makes me want to sleep with the lights on.
