Tonight, HockeyMan and I attended our friends’ annual “Beerlitofest”/Halloween Party. After weeks of back-and-forth on what to wear (BritBrit/K-Fed, Bacon/Eggs, Plug/Socket), we stopped in to Target today to buy the clothes for our original idea - me-Fried Egg, HockeyMan-Chef. When I couldn’t find the white pants I needed (I’ll never say that again and mean it) browsing through every section of the women’s clothing, it hit me.
It’s Christmas time (what? already? no - the “man” just wants you to believe it’s already THAT time so you’ll start buying gifts now - BTW - did you hear Good for the Kids is having a store-wide sale? stock up now!), and Christmas PJs are already out. So, like any other non-creative, lazy, I-can-only-spend-5-minutes-dressing-for-a-Halloween-Party woman, I decided we’ll go as Christmas Morning!
What exactly does that mean? Pajamas! Annoyingly cute, fleece, reindeer pajamas with the biggest fluffy animal slippers I could find. HockeyMan found some “Family Guy” Xmas pajamas for himself and some Homer Simpson slippers.
Did I mention we had battery-powered Xmas lights around our neck? That’s the piece de resistance. Instant Christmas morning.
We were the HIT of the party! Everyone was so jealous that they had to put on silly makeup, wear tight tights, and masks while we lounged around in our PJs.
I don’t have pictures yet, but none are really needed to get across my idea for the BEST Halloween costume EVER.

Nice, I’ll have to remember that one in the future. I’m not a big costume person, but staying in my PJ’s is right up my alley!! Can’t wait to see the pictures!!
We need pics. Kthanks.
Okay, so where ar the pictures?
Very original. I don’t think anyone could have thought that up if they tried!
So you’re already for Xmas morning, huh? Good job! Who said you’re lazy?!?
Opps - I meant “all ready”…
Uh…oops…
That’s perfect! GReat idea!
What a great idea! I definitely think some pics are in order
BTW, I tagged you over at my blog…
Did you throw in some tantrums and arguments for good measure?
I love it! I was going to go as Dr. Evil and my baby was going to be “mini me” because I have to wear him in the Snugli….but alas that won’t work because I REFUSE to pay $25 for a bald head….so instead I am going to our Harvest Party as a tired, worn-out Momma…AKA me! HA!
I can’t wait to see the pics…the thought of the Christmas lights around your necks made me laugh :o)
Hi. I’ve left you a Halloween treat on my blog today. Collect it if you want it. I was given it and asked to pass it on.
Enjoy
I would have never thought of that! Great idea!! Hope you post pictures soon.
