Woo hoo! November is finally here. Sweet sweet November. October ended on a typically disappointing note last night for the trick or treaters. We didn't get a single kid at K's because it was pouring rain outside. We did have costumes inside, though. (But I forgot to take pictures. Sorry!) I was Velma from Scooby Doo, L was Zorro, and K had a cute fluffy cloud costume made of cotton balls. Nothing to compare to these awesome costumes at Ashlee's party in Boston, unfortunately. (And I totally want to marry these two, whoever they are. Both of them. Best costumes ever!)

Now this isn't exactly a costume, per se, but it's still a pretty startling outfit. My aunt J (name not used to protect the fashion crime perpetrator) lives in Florida and helped a friend out who was recovering from the recent hurricane, resulting in this picture on the Red Cross website. I'll let you guess which one is part of my family. (Hint: She's on the left, and she's got the happiest pants I've ever seen.) This picture just makes me smile. J, if you ever see this, I love you! All teasing is meant in good fun.
