So our ward had a Halloween party last Saturday. Darren and the young men were in charge of a Spook Alley so our house was very busy before it started. We couldn't think of what to dress up as, so Darren grabbed some of his snowboarding things to be a Snowboarder. I know... good one, right?? :) I was planning on being a Power Puff girl, but after searching the house up and down I realized I had given it back to my parents to put in their costume box. What a letdown! I had no idea what to do. My backup plan was a pirate, which I was last year, but with no other options, I started to get ready. I put on my pirate tights (black and white stripes) and started to run around the house to find the rest of my costume. Darren saw me and busted up laughing! He told me I looked like a Who! And it hit me. Why didn't I think of that before?! I have been a Who a number of times. In college, my roomies and I would dress up as Who's around Christmas and bring cookies to our favorite boys and sing them a little Christmas Who carol :) Oh how I miss those days! Don't worry Darren, I love these days too! But they might be better if you dress up as a Who with me :)

Side note: The party was great! We had a blast! Even though my husband set off the fire alarm...


What IS that thing?! Not gonna lie... it's a little different being a married pregnant Who...


Oh the good old days! I simply HAD to show a picture of my roomies and I dressed up as Whos! Favorite memory of this night: Tallie sticking her head out the window while she was driving because she couldn't fit it in the car :)

I miss you girls!!!


And this picture is for Brittany. I can't even tell you how excited I am to see you this Christmas! All I wanna do is play! I'm thinking we should, perhaps, try to fit in a Who outing... what do you say? :)

Hey, Brandi! Congrats on being pregnant. I think we are due within a week of each other. Good luck with everything. I'll have to keep checking your blog for tummy pics. :) I think I am too nervous to put my own tummy pics up...maybe I'll give in and just post one.

I love the who costume, I was one two years ago! I will ask what everyone is dying to know... how did you fit into those lovely green pants with that belly? It looks like you had them before you were prego!

Darren and Brandi said...

haha Kali, you're hilarious! Yes, I did have them before. I actually havn't had to wear maternity anything yet... it's called wear your pants low :) Of course, not all of them fit because some of my pants go higher than others... I've pretty much worn the same 2 jeans for the past 2 months haha I figure I should wait as long as I can to go buy new pants because less than a month later, I'll probably have to go buy some more!

Brandi I can't stop laughing at your cute costume. I love it, I agree that Darren should have dressed up with you. Snowboarder is so boring.
