1998    Morgan’s and Adam’s First Halloween   5 months old

I know, I know, I’m supposed to be in the midst of my Home Organization blog series, but I couldn’t help myself. I just felt like going off-topic to share photos of our Halloween costumes from years gone by. (My Home Page disclaimer: this blog is a hodge podge.)

In our house, my twins, now age 11, start talking about Halloween costumes as early as March or so.  The Halloween costumes talk comes up for discussion every few weeks until October when it then becomes an obsession. This year, it’s something about Japanese anime characters…or whatever…I don’t know.

Anywho, here ya go.  Here are some of our Halloween costumes since 1998. Some years are missing, especially the toddler years; I was just too sleep-deprived to drag out the camera I guess.

Hope you enjoy. Who knows, maybe they will give you some ideas for this year’s Halloween costumes.

Thanks so much for letting me share these photos.  As Halloween approaches, I hope your (and our) search for the perfect Halloween costumes is fun-filled and memorable.

Love Your Home and remember to take tons of pictures of your ghosts and gobblins,

This photo shows us the true meaning of “happy to be home.”

As a Home-Aholic, I can’t stop smiling (and hugging my kids.)

Love Your Home,
