WW: Ghosts of Halloween Past

-
For this edition of Wordful Wednesday, I decided to go far back. Before kids, before marriage (I hardly remember it!!). Not before Big A...but then again, what fun would that be?

These are pictures from 2005, my sophomore year of college, Big A's senior year. Let me just preface that this is where my Halloween costumes started going downhill. I had zero money so I pulled out a low-waisted dress, put some long necklaces on, and called myself a flapper. Anyway, the star of this Halloween was my handsome fiancee (at the time). Without further ado, I give you:

Big A as Hulk Hogan


Hulkamania - Runnin' Wild


Doesn't he look awesome? Click to enlarge the pictures because he even has the facial hair down.
I made his shirt!! The front said Hulkamania and the back said Runnin' Wild. He ripped it off at the end of the night - I wish I would've gotten that on video.

Click yourself on over to Angie's Seven Clown Circus to participate in Ghosts of Halloween Past (and sign up for a cool Flip camera-thinger).

haha Love the Hulk costume! And I agree with Jennifer, sometimes the best costumes are the ones you have to just throw together with whatever you have around :)

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
