This year we dressed as a hula girl and castaway sailor. I had bought my outfit the year before but we had opted (in 2001) to go as a dead bride and groom as Kenny wasn't exactly psyched to dress up as a island boy. This year, Kenny came up with the idea of castaway sailor for his costume, which is much cuter than island boy, I think. It took us all of 20 minutes to find everything we needed for him at the Army/Navy surplus store. We frayed the edges of his pants and sleeves and he looked as cute as a button (God love it, I know his mamma had to love him the most!). I looked like I could stand to lose ten pounds, which is why I got my ass back in the gym after I saw these pictures.

We didn't even place in the contest this year. :( Oh well...we still had fun putting everything together
