Halloween
Two Of A Kind
“One year my sister and I wanted to be the Teletubbies for Halloween, so our mother decided to make the costumes herself. But she couldn’t find any yellow footy pajamas so we were stuck being the same one. I’m the one on the left. As you can tell I was thrilled.”

The Great Halloween Tantrum
“I wanted a harem girl costume I saw at Sears but my parents refused to basically get me a slutty costume at 7 years old (which I was totally sure I could pull off, btw) so as a ‘compromise’ my mom bought me this t shirt and hat and I had a full-on tantrum on the front lawn that was so loud neighbors came out of their homes to check out the caterwauling child.”

The Auditor
“Found a childhood photo of mine… kind of explains the smartass label my parents gave me when I was younger.”

“This is a picture of my sister and I as a Princess and Knight riding “horses” for Halloween.”

Lipstuck
“Assuming this was Halloween 1984ish, or at least I hope so based on my brothers choice of headgear, my mom swears she was putting lipstick on me. I question this theory, but it makes for a great photo.”

The Odd Couple
“Little did people know that Laura Ingalls Wilder had a pet unicorn. My sister and I are six years apart and total opposites, as it is clear from his photo taken on Halloween 1994 in my kindergarten class. When she wanted to be her favorite book character, I just wanted to be a unicorn. Our parents still have this framed and put on the wall of their house.”

Married With Children
“My mom and dad were going to a Halloween party and cross-dressed as Peg and Al Bundy from ‘Married with Children.’ My mom was Al and my dad was Peg. My dad was in his late eighties when this picture was taken. This is my favorite picture of all time.”
