Halloween


I need help. I hate Halloween. I truly detest it. I hate spending tons of cash on costumes for my kids that will be used for about 2 hours of fun! I have never dressed up for Halloween. I loathe the idea of people looking at me and judging my (lack of) creativity.

BUT...I have a strange addiction to dressing up for MY events! I have done the mud run (I did not "costume" but I did run 6.something miles covered in mud!) I was a goddess in the Muddy Buddy, I ran the streets of LA as a chicken. I am seriously considering being a bottle of vagisil for the next GUR and tomorrow...well tomorrow I will be a Mom. My mountain biking group has an annual Mother's Day ride in El Moro. Then we hike to the beach for lunch. I arranged the kids schedules so that I can make both parts of the fun! Last year, first prize went to someone who wore oven mits and a bathrobe for the entire 10 mile ride. Not to be outdone, tomorrow I will be sporting a baby in my camelpack. I have a jar of food, a bottle, a burp cloth (with genuine nasty stuff on it courtesy of Miss Lexi...it is truely disgusting since it has been in my drawer meaning to be returned for about a year now!). My baby has a teddy bear with her and her own specially designed helmet. Of course I will have a pacifier necklace and Purell on hand. Every good mother always leaves the house prepared for a high intensity bike ride with her infant! I am so excited! I will post pics soon!
