Boo to YOU!

It has become an annual tradition to host a Not-So-Spooky Halloween Party in the Priss household.  Who says the kids get to have all of the fun on Halloween?  No me!  This party is for adults only!

We gave our party guests the suggestion to dress as a musical group this year - optional, of course. 

Run DMC
(Mrs. Sinclair & hubs)

The Brady Bunch
(Mrs. Priss as Jan and Mrs. Albright as Cindy et. al.)

Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood
(Mrs. Montgomery & hubs)

Yabba Dabba Doooooo!

Hannah Montana & Billy Ray Cyrus

Peace, Man.

Sorry for Party Rockin' - LMFAO

Safari

Thriller!

Walk This Way!
(Steven Tyler & Run DMC)

Yard Ornaments - Flamingo and Gnome

We have some very creative friends! As an added bit of excitement we asked that our musical guests be prepared to perform.  Sadly, we have some very shy friends.  These friends also know that I will film and post, so maybe you can't blame them?
You'd never know that we Bradys actually got together and practiced our routine.  Ummmm.  For reals.  The transition between songs wasn't exactly what we hoped for. There was the only other couple willing to strut their stuff.  They rocked it!


  And since I'm showing two videos today, I'll just share that a few of us enjoyed some karaoke afterwards.

This, my friends, is what it's all about.   Good times with friends and a whole lotta laughter.


Happy Halloween!

DIY Costumes and Halloween Showoff 2012 with Link Up

'Tis the day before Halloween and hopefully the greatest nightmare of all housewives with children has not occurred.  Did you forget to make, buy, or just can't find the right costume for you or your children?   I can certainly see where that nightmare might occur. And if it has, I can only hope to offer you some DIY costume hope.  I am also asking for our readers to link up to this post and show off your 2012 Halloween costumes! Inquiring housewives want to know.

My son: Greg Hefley the Wimpy Kid
My daughter: The Prissy Ghost
(All ideas inspired by where else?  Pinterest!)

Wimpy Kid

I originally got the idea for the Wimpy Kid from Living Locurto, but I just couldn't get the face to turn out the way I wanted. So then I moved on to actual Wimpy Kid sites and found these downloads! Score! Looks like we may all be a Wimpy Dad and Mom also! I just printed, glued it on black card stock and cut it out. I did not cut out the eyes. Then rather than put the mask on strings I duct taped it onto a Halloween pencil. His middle school is dressing up on Wednesday and he's not that into dressing up, so this was perfect for my almost 12 year old once paired with a white tee, black shorts and long white socks!

Prissy Ghost

This idea came from a pin that I pinned last year. It was off of an etsy shop, so it didn't come with directions. I just made it my own way. That's the fun thing about Pinterest. I made this costume for less than $5! Supplies needed: long sleeve white tee, one piece of 8x10 black felt, black ribbon and Liquid Stitch. Cut a template for your eye and mouth shape, pin it on before you Liquid Stitch and try it on the child, making sure its centered and looks right. Then Liquid stitch it on. In case you haven't figured out, Liquid Stitch is to me like butter is to the Pioneer Woman. Then make a bow and sew or Liquid Stitch it on. Pair it up with a cute white tutu and you have a prissy ghost! Now my daughter has a fun costume, one she can wear to school, and a shirt she can wear again next October! 

These are just a few ideas. 

I have an entire board dedicated to ALL THINGS HALLOWEEN if you would like to browse for other nightmare ending solutions. 

Now I know there are going to be lots of posts this week showing off your princesses, ballerinas, pumpkins, ninjas, and even a few of you will be sporting your own creative adult costumes. I've seen a few and I know our readers would love to see them. I also know that the BIG reveal is not until tomorrow night for some, so this link up will be open until next Monday!

Wishing you all a safe and creative Halloween like

Halloween Costume Ideas

Mr. Montgomery & I are going to a Halloween Party. It's one of those parties where everyone is very serious about their costumes. Party goers costumes are top secret & there are big reveals at the party. To say my husband & I are not costume people would be an understatement. Our idea of dressing in costume is wearing jeans from 2005 & Wal-Mart "vintage" concert t's. I'm a little stressed in trying to come up with our "outfits".  Pinterest has offered up some good ideas. None of which we'll be wearing, still so funny I had to share.

Please someone dress like this & drive around. Make sure you have someone videoing the reactions  as you pull up or drive by other cars.

This is hilarious AND comfortable. Win - Win.

Ummmmm...

What a funny, funny boy.
Unfortunately I have no buns in the oven.
So if you have any music, band, singing, couple costume ideas please share. I am in desperate need of ideas. xo, Mrs. Montgomery Desperately Needing a Halloween Stylist like...

Spooktacular Foods

Cooking club is coming up Thursday night so I've been doing a little research on what I'm going to make. The theme, of course, is Halloween. The past two years the ladies have brought some really yummy and fun foods.

Just take a look....

Wasn't that awesome?! I'm wondering how on earth we can top that this year. But, I believe it can be done, because this year I now have Pinterest to turn to for help! If you are not on Pinterest, what are you waiting for?! It's where all the cool housewives find their food, fun and crafts (and, so much more)! If you'd like an invite (because you have to be invited) just leave your email address in the comments and I'll happily send you an invitation. 

Here is just a sampling of the possibilities....
