Top 5 costume ideas for me and R this year

5) Sprockets - Easy, cheap, and just the right amount of obscurity in a pop culture reference. This makes a good costume, but, alas, we used it last year.



4) Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox - Distinctly midwestern but perhaps too much so. Californians might be confused. Plus, we're trying to avoid blue body paint.



3) Brandon and Brenda Walsh - Being Minnesotans recently relocated to California sounds appropriate for us, and I think I could pull off the pompadour and 90s clothing style, but the siblings factor may be too incestuous for a married couple.



2) Each other - This just kind of happened partially by accident one day a while ago, and we found it incredibly funny. I think it would make a good costume, as long as we're seen together the whole night. Maybe next year.



1) Wait for it - I don't want to spoil the surprise, so check back here sometime after Halloween for a photo of what we decided on.

Glad to see you used a shot of the "real" Paul and Babe in Bemidji and not the other one in Brainard. : )
