Halloween 2011

03Nov11

So, I havent blogged in years, it feels like.
So, I've decided to blog about one of my favorite times of the year, HALLOWEEN!
This year, I took on a very very very big project.
The costume took me a long time, and a lot of hard work.
No one thought it would look good. So here goes..
I decided to make a Bumblee Bee Transformer costume that actually transforms when laying on the ground.

Here is the finished product.

So this is my boyfriend in it before I added some newer stuff to it, this was the first night we decided to take it out to a party, and attempt to win the costume contest. We went to Morley, in Brusly, LA. It was a packed night, and we tied for first, and had to rock paper scissors for the overall winner… and it was us! We ended up having a long night there, and the costume was broken in many pieces due to someone being veryyy sloppy. So then I had another week to add to it and redo the whole thing all over again, i added some lights, make the front end shorter, and filled cracks.

So what i used for the top lights was flashlights, and the bottom lights were book lights, all from the dollar tree.

The next weekend, I decided to take it to a bar called Lil’ Daddys in Plaquemine, where I placed first, and my mom (i did her makeup) placed second. It was too funny!!

she was osama bin laden!

So the next night, i begged my boyfriend to wear it to another bar, Mikes, where we took first again!!!

here he is with the sundrop girl, who is actually a guy

I dressed up as a measly ole Honey Badger

So the next night, he was very worn out from our Halloween events, but I knew I could not stop there at my favorite holiday of the year.. so I went to my last halloween costume contest at the Daiquiri Pub of Brusly, where I had to beat out like 10 girls who knew how to shake their butts… including this one, in a THONG, of which, DEMETRIUS BYRD wanted her to win….. yeah yeah…… dreamer.
