Bloggeritaville Costume Contest Entries for Wednesday

I am just loving looking at all of the great costumes that have been submitted. I always the one to fight anyone off from answering the door on Halloween so I can see the great costumes. This is great. And boy! You people are talented! There have been some great entries.
Today is no different as you will see.......


Susan of Psych Ward makes a great Issac of the Love Boat. I am sure she can mix up a mean margarita!


Valarie Lea enters the contest as a lovely clown


And again as a terrific Ethel with her friend, Lucy.



Her children get into the act as an elderly couple


And Valarie's friends husband poses as an big and beautiful ballerina
Someone please email this to his coworkers. I am sure they'd have a field day with that one. I see blackmail in his future.

And thank Heaven's for Valarie! She entered her dog into the contest. Our first animal in costume. Is Valarie and I the only ones (sick) that find enjoyment in putting their pets in costume and seeing them look ticked off?

Lindsey's entry is her precious daughter, "MM" as a perfect Annie:

Scrappin Hillbilly -who is an ingeniously crafty woman. Here is what she says about her costumed kids, "One is of my son & the other is my dd...my son is going as "When good spiders go bad"
and my dd is the classic "Bride of Frankenstein" (and yep that is her real hair lol)
I threw in a close up of my dd's "classic scream queen" pose just for fun :) This has to be one of my most favorite costumes we have come up with yet! They wanted to be in a small town costume contest and I only had one night to make their costumes so it was a mad rush to find an old sheet (thank God for grandma-in-laws) and some tea to dye it with."
Amazing. I would've thought that these costumes were store bought they look so good.

J of Musings From Left Field is pictured here with her friend Slim Jim. J is a fine Gretel from Hansel & Gretel!!!!
