It takes a certain kind of man to be willing to wear an orange skintight crushed velvet minidress. With a ne
on orange wig. Andy is that guy, and the reason it's so gre
at is that he's NOT the guy you'd expect to wear it. I love his silliness and his seriousness, and everything in between. We were dressing up for our friend Beth's annual Halloween party, and the theme this year was "Orange and Black," with the rules stating we should aim for 2/3 orange, 1/3 black. I went as a volcano - got loads of fabric and had a good concept, but it never would have worked if my good friend, Kathy, hadn't come through with a offer to share her sewing machine and excellent skills! We had so muc
h fun putting it together, and it was SO fun to wear. Biggest compliment of the night: someone asked me if I had purchased the costume! Score! Mom went as Mother Nature and Dad went as "the guy who thought he was supposed to wear two turds orange and one turd black." Ha! Andy was the star of the night, though, soldiering on with his itchy wig and hoop skirt, possibly enjoying the silky, stretchy fabric of the dress a tiny bit *too* much. :-) Our young friend, Dory, babysat the kids, and when we got back to the house around 9:30pm, they were snug as bugs in their beds. Such a fun night!!
