A halloween to remember

Click on the picture to link to the full album

Well Saturday night we all loaded up and headed out to our favorite dive bar. We were not sure what to expect as the Barnoff has its own character and we thought we might be the only ones dressed up. Turns out everyone, including the bartenders, was dressed up. The place was packed with mermen, hall and oates, ghostbusters, pinguins, oscar the grouch, cookie monster, and the list goes on.

Our crew was dressed as T-paine'esk rapper (Jake), spider lady (Kay), witch lady (Stephanie), greenman (Ross), hippie (Natalie), and emo version of myself (Thomas). We managed to grab one of the last tables and had a great night. At the end of the night Ross and Stephanie took first and second place in the costume contest raking in $150. I think they came out well ahead on cash that night.

Two weekends in a row of dressing up has boosted our collection of costumes down in the garage. What party will be next?

Natalie is headed out to LA this weekend to visit friends and I plan on taking it easy around the house. Well, I have to get in a 10 mile run as training for the Seattle 1/2 Marathon but other than that I plan on taking it easy.
