![]() ![]() ![]() The truth is, there are all kinds of (totally legitimate) things that can pull us away from family time. *everything* there’s always some fire to put out or bodily fluid to clean up. PRO: Nobody can back out.Įven in the best of times, life is busy. So before you commit to a family costume, you may want to take stock. And even when everyone is all in, this endeavor is not without its challenges. Okay, it’s mostly fun and games, but it still takes planning and money and everyone being all in. Obviously, I’m a big fan of a family Halloween costume. We figured if we’re going to take the book’s protagonist Max trick-or-treating anyway, why not get in on the fun and be Wild Things? Plus: the pics. This year, our son is almost three and we’re planning another family costume: the Where the Wild Things Are crew. We were so committed to the look that I dyed my hair an intense red and my husband even shaved off his signature beard (marking the first time I’d seen his bare face IRL). Hunting down all the clothes and accessories was fun (if a bit pricey) and everyone knew who we were supposed to be right away. The most epic, however, was the year my husband and I decided to dress up as Family Guy’s Peter and Lois Griffin and outfit our then 10-month-old son as the show’s villainous big-headed baby, Stewie. Not to brag, but I’ve put together some pret- ty good Halloween costumes in my life. ![]()
