She got to guess before me?! Darn! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT COSTUME!
 
Next year, I'm going to make a plaid flannel cape to replace the black one, and we'll pop a black cowboy hat on top of the helmet, and he'll be Darth Brooks (or Garth Vader).
 
I must be lucky, my husband does all my computer stuff. I do the parties, he does the rest. He does all my PP, Hostess packs, Lap Boards, anything needing to be downloaded or printed. Got to luv him

You are a lucky, lucky girl!
 
Wow! It would still be cheaper to have an office assistant do all that than to go the the tremendous expense to have a HUSBAND!!

Can you sense the bitterness?
