To make up for last week's Mingle Monday rain check (thanks for the vacation grace!), I decided to post our week long link-up extra early! I am super excited to see who all stops by today and meet some new blog friends myself. Nothing is better than stumbling across a new blog that you can't stop reading, right?!
Anyway, I hope you all had an incredible weekend! I went to the ballet with my sister, spent all of Saturday with my hubby on a day date, and Sunday getting some much needed relaxation and refocusing (more details from the weekend coming soon!). Life is good, my friends.

I was a dance kid growing up, so all of my costumes were previous dance recital costumes. I can vividly remember one year when I dressed up as a baseball player and wore my brothers uniform.
ReplyDeleteClearly my mom wasn't big on buying costumes. :)
Omg, I am cracking up right now - all of my costumes were old dance recital costumes too! I even had one that was for the Adams Family and it had glow in the dark hands all over it - hahaha! :) Gotta love cost effective Halloween! :)
DeleteMost of my costumes growing up were thrown together with things we had at home. One year we bought a lamb costume. I thought that was the best costume EVER.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute! It's funny what we can imagine with limited resources - homemade costumes were always a fave of mine! I bet you were the cutest lamb ever! Please tell me cotton balls were involved in the transformation... :)
DeleteI have to say, my Rainbow Brite costumes this year for my 5 month old, Farrah and me! I posted about them Friday, hope you'll check them out!

Ahhhhhh!!! I LOVED Rainbow Brite! I can't wait to jump over and check out the cuteness! :)
DeleteMy roommate and I homemade super mario & luigi costumes, they rocked!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! My inner 6-year-old just freaked out! :) How cute!!
DeleteMy best ever costume was a zombie nurse. Caused quite a stir I can tell you.
ReplyDeleteX x
Ahhhh! That would have scared ME! I am a pansy!
DeleteOne of my favorite costumes was a loofah that I wore a few years back! I got so many comments on it, which made it fun :) I'm so glad you had a great weekend, girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteStop it right now! A loofah?! That's SO awesome and fluffy!!!
DeleteI need photo proof :)
When I was REALLY young my mom made this fantastic Snow White dress and we wore it for YEARS. Seriously, every single girl in my family has worn that costume. I'm 99% certain it's still in a closet somewhere.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that's so amazing! I bet your mama is a good seamstress!! :)
DeleteMy favorite costume ever was my pirate girl costume. I've always loved pirates tho! haha! I blame Captain Jack Sparrow. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOooo a pirate girl? Shiver me timbers!! :)
DeleteI had this amazing costume when I was younger that my mom hand stitched from this gold curtain that she had. I loved the Disney movie Hercules and I went as one of the Muses.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I LOVED Hercules! The muses sang the best songs! Did you sing for your candy? ;)
DeleteWhen I was younger I had a indiana jones costumes because I was a little obsessed with that movie when I was a young little one! So i think that was my favorite one! :)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like it probably came with some sweet world saving accessories! Right up my alley!
DeleteIt would have to be when I was a child - my ballerina costume in all ballet pink!
ReplyDeleteAww that's a classic! Wearing pink and a tutu transforms any girly girl!
DeleteI would have to say an 80's Rock Star from a few years ago. I wore my leather jacket, jeans, lots of makeup and teased my hair to make it look like the "big hair" from the 80's.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me you had blue sparkle eye shadow and crimped hair! Totally bodacious!
DeleteLove the ballet! So fun! I think Minnie Mouse was my best costume...or Mary Poppins! Love dressing up!
ReplyDeleteAwww I had a Minnie Mouse costume too that I loved! It had a sparkly sequined red bow and little ruffle socks! :) I loved dress up too!
DeleteMy best costume is a tie between Poison Ivy and Black Widow (IronMan). I made both myself and they were so fun. Have a great week Meg!!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a crafty girl! I would've wanted to hot glue greenery everywhere to achieve the look! ;)
DeleteHmm that's a tough one but I would have to go with the time my husband and i dressed up as Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
ReplyDeletelove, lo

What a super cute couples costume idea! Love that! :)
DeleteWell, I was Tinker Bell for probably 7 years in a row, so I'd say I really loved that costume. My all time favorite, though, was Sam and Suzy from Moonrise Kingdom.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, too cute! I love that you were Tink for 7+ years. It has probably become a part of your identity now ;)
DeleteI was Rainbow Brite one year...it was amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Rainbow Bright, Jules!! I bet you were way cute!
DeleteMy best ever Halloween costume has to be the year my mom and dad built me a cutting edge flip-phone costume out of a huge refrigerator sized box. I had lights and buttons that lit up and an antenna. It was pretty awesome. Haha...I'm only 25 but I feel like I'm aging myself here...
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - that's hilarious! So technically advanced! ;)
DeleteI love that you always ask a fun question...I think my favorite halloween costume was when I dressed up as Lily Munster and my younger brother went as Eddy Munster from the old time show The Munsters :) Good fun!
ReplyDeleteAww you're so sweet! I always try to keep things fun and lively around here! ;) I love that you went as the Munsters - so spooky and classic!
