During the day, Keith dressed up as Elvis to see patients. One little kiddo even came to see the dentist dressed as Spiderman! I'm sure Keith's patients loved coming to a dental office where the whole staff was in the spirit of Halloween.
For our evening out, I decided we would be a deer and a hunter, in honor of the deer Keith shot last week on his big trip:
The Hunter and the Hunted!
Keith wore clothes he already had, and I wore a sweater with fur, and made my own antlers. I started with a headband I found at Walgreens the night before:
I added the ears to the headband by hot gluing pieces of fur to stiff backing (I found this backing near stuff used to patch pants) and I cut it into ear shapes. I used this tutorial for make-up and it was super helpful. It's been so long since I've worn face paint that I would forget, scratch my nose and have black all over my hands!
We spent the evening at my friend Kate's house. We work together. She is too funny. It was her big 30th birthday, so she went as the birthday gift, and even had a box to wear. So silly! Instead of beer pong, we played champagne pong. The older we get, the more that hurts the next day! :)
Here is our little work crew: Kristen, Sarah, Brandon and Kate.
Brandon was the kid from home alone....
...and his wife, Jessica, another dear friend of mine, was Marv. You know, the bad guy from the movie with the fro that got burned on the face with the iron? She had it all going on! So clever.
Kristen and Mike - a peacock and an elephant. It was hard to think of him as a real person until he took the elephant head off, and he didn't for the first few hours of the party!
Sarah and I - my sister from another mister. She was an 80s aerobic instructor, and wore it well!
It was a great night! It's too bad we don't have more excuses to dress up and have fun like that throughout the year!
