    Speaking of Halloween costumes...

    Are any of you dressing up to accompany your kids trick-or-treatiing, or go to a party or dress up for work?

    I do it every year. Last year my oldest was Dorothy, so I dressed as the lion. Both my daughters are going to be Disney Princesses this year, so I will be a Prince or a Dwarf (or something along those lines)



    While we were trick or treating, we ran into the tinman and the scarecrow:



    This was from three years ago (I believe), I just wore a Mardi Gras suit:

      I haven't dressed up in several years, but my girlfriend got invited to a party. So we are thinking about being Alice in Wonderland and the Mad Hatter.

        The plan is: my son is going as Nightwing (homemade costume in the works), me as Batman (again), daughter as Batgirl, and wife as Wonder Woman (she kind of throws off the pattern just a bit).

        Cindy and I will probably also hit a part as Bats and WW.

          My daughter is a huge Batman fan (the 66 show)

          I really wanted us to be Batman and Robin, but she insists Robin is a boy and she can't be Robin. So we compromised and We'll be Batman and Batgirl this year.

            I've got to get rolling on my son's Hoplite costume! And I've got all the pieces for my costume, just have to sew it together. Maybe this weekend...or even start on it tonight.

              I don't know what the hell i'm going to dress up as this year.
              I'm thinking Shipwreck or the Mego Gene Simmons

                Antiquetiger, those are great photos! Love the one where you bumped into the Tinman and Scarecrow.

                  Awesome.
                  I was just talking about this.

                  My oldest went as Nightwing last year. Home made costume. I'll post a pic.

                  My fondest wish is for us to do this before they are too old.

                  Me as Batman, Wife as Catwoman or Batgrirl or some DC herione, oldest as Nightwing, youngest as Robin. I tried to get them to do Batman and Robin 2 years ago but my youngest insisted on being Spidey.

                    I always look for an opportunity to dress up. Unfortunately this year I haven't the time or money to make a new costume so I will recycle my Batman or Superman outfit for trick or treat with the kids and continue my tradition of running a 5k race on Halloween in my Flash costume. My 4 year old wants to be Pocahontas this year for T or T but will pro be jasmine for another event. My little one will probably be forced to be a princess by the older one. My wife will pull out the Catwoman or Wonder Woman costume again (to my delight)

                      Me and a Bunch of other guys dressed up as Luchadores during work one year. Pilots got a kick out of it when they flew bye our Air Traffic Tower.

                        Last year, I was Rocketman / Commando Cody (still need to post pics of how I figured out to do the helmet ), and my kids were Abe Lincoln and Glinda.

                        Couple years ago, I tried to get them and my wife to go out as the FF, but couldn't convince the females.

                        This year, I'm going to be Captain Kirk, in green wraparound uniform . . . My son's going to be the Middleman, and my daughter . . . a witch (she was going to be the Middlegirl, Wendy, but changed her mind ). Still trying to figure out how to convince my wife to get into a Starfleet minidress -- I'm sure a lot of guys have had that problem, though . . .

                          Thanks!!! Funny thing is, this guy's wife (she is taking the picture) was dressed as Dorothy, but she had on the "Sexy Dorothy" costume!!!

                          I didn't mind, but alittle inappropriate for trick or treating.

                          If you don't know what "Sexy Dorothy" costume is, here it is:
