Jeff,
I think I had to go through a bunch of albums just to find anything related to Halloween. There’s probably a lot in boxes and such that I missed.

CAD,
I make it seem like I thought up the bride/groom myself, but I actually saw it in a rather inferior and forgotten Pee-wee Herman film, Big Top Pee-wee (1988).

Xoloitzquintle,
I wonder what other old school cartoon characters would be considered gay and inappropriate for kids a la Tinky Winky.

Frances,
I used to wear a red cape to keep me warm when I was a little kid. My mom made it too, and I treasured it. I loved the costume last year. So simple and cute.

Julissa,
The spirit was definitely passed down from my parents. I’ve seen the pictures and heard the stories to know that they have more than their fair share of memorable costumes (plus the prizes).

Kelly,
I never wore a costume to school until I got to high school. In elementary school, we dressed in regular clothes and then after school we’d return all dressed up for the after school carnival complete with cake walk and contest. I think the teachers/administrators dressed up. I doubt I’ll wear my costume to school. Hehe.

Gustavo,
Thanks! We definitely had fun wearing them and eating all the candy afterwards.

EMC,
I know. Glad you enjoyed yourself. On a side note, a lot of people make fun of me and mimic me by saying “I’m so cute” in a childish voice. I guess you can say I’m not that modest.
