Halloween Weekend!

It was actually neat to have Halloween on Sunday cuz that meant a whole weekend dedicated to the day.. and this one was actually pretty fun for me.
On Friday, Darin & I went to my friend Ysel's house to carve pumpkins & drink alcohol. =)
Our pumpkins of the night:


Ysel's friend carved the pumpkin on the left.. it's a monster holding a trick or treat back. Darin & my pumpkin is the spider in the middle, and Ysel's is the tombstone with hands coming out of the ground on the left.
Saturday night Darin & I decided to go to the Forbidden Island Tiki Lounge with Ysel & her bf Jay..
it was 80's costume night... so of course we dressed up...

Jay, Ysel & I


Ysel had to take a pic with the bartender.. she loved his high waisted acid wash jeans


Jay was MC Hammer.. this is the best pic I had of his gold jacket.. it was complete with parachute pants. lol


Ysel & I found Cheech & Chong =)


What was 80's night without Freddy Kreuger? Darin had me do his makeup & used last years Freddy costume for this night



Ysel & I as your typical 80's girl


Darin & I


As for Sunday.. this was Darin & my BIG day... we went all out for these costumes...
Now Presenting....

Beetlejuice & Miss Argentina (of Beetlejuice)




Unfortunately I ran out of time and had to just draw on my cuts rather than get detailed & textured with them as I had wanted =(


Our friend Adil as the Devil



Adil & I

We had quite a few people asking to take pictures with us. I love that.. it tells me that I did a good job with our costumes =)



I had to take a picture with this costume... Old Spice man!



And of course.. my lil Oscar had a costume too! Oscar the Devil dog! =)


We ended up going to Polk St. in San Francisco to bar hop.. but oddly it wasnt as busy as we thought it'd be. I guess it had to do with Halloween falling on a Sunday.. but still, how can you NOT celebrate halloween on the actual halloween day?! It's like celebrating Christmas on some other day than the 24th or 25th. wtf? Whatever. We still had fun.

As for all the people we saw at the bars not dressed up.. alls I have to say is if you're from the U.S. and you DONT celebrate & dress up for halloween... you are LAME and you SUCK. =)

Can't wait for next year.. gotta start thinking of costumes. =)

  2. Your costumes are great!! Maybe next year if we plan enough we can do Beetlejuice. We always wait til the last minute! Some of the best costumes I saw this year were a Morman and a Mexican wrestler. The worst--gothic Hitler. Yuck.
