Halloween this year was interesting. We spent the evening partying it up at Zoey and Lissettes little house of horrors, which was as usual completely amazing, but before we could even arrive (2 hours late by the way) my sister and I were subjected to 3 hours of makeup.
That's right 3 hours. Both of our costumes were make up heavy. She was a Dia de Los Muertos girl and looked absolutely amazing and me in my Bride of Frankenstein getup. At one point I was standing there while my mom sponged on grease paint for a solid 40 minutes. Kill me please!
Did it look great? Yes it sure did, will I ever be that committed to a costume again, no. I had to shower for 45 minutes when I got home at 3 am to scrub the makeup and prosthetic glue off. I came out with my chest swollen from all the scrubbing. Seriously. Ouch.
Not to mention that the time changed mid evening so by the time we left at 3 am, I wanted to collapse from exhaustion. We slept over mom and dads and for some reason my mom decided only to make one side of my futon comfy and guess where I slept on the wrong side. So I woke up at 8 am with the worst back pain in history, slightly hungover with makeup still on parts that I couldn't possibly scrub anymore the night before. Regardless of that it was awesome and a fun night was had by all, as you can see from the photos ;-)

You look seriously awesome though. And I like seeing your friends's costumes.:) lookslike a fun party, and the decorations are really creative.

I love how you 'whited up'.

Looks like fun!
