Halloween pub crawlin'

Last night was another epic Halloween pub crawl in the books! This is our 3rd year of dressing up on or near Halloween and wandering NW 21st. There are a few great stops that usually make our route...Blue Moon, Silver Dollar Pizza, Underdog, Gypsy (karaoke and fishbowls) and O'Briens used to be on the list, but was closed this year and also no longer employs one of our favorite friends Han Banana :) Last night also coincided with the Timbers' first playoff game against Seattle (away) so we got downtown around 7:00 p.m. to watch the game, eat some dinner and have some beers. The Timbers' game was FANTASTIC!!! They got the win 2-1 over Seattle for game one! Perfect way to begin our evening of fun!

I was so happy with the turn out of our amazingly awesome friends that put effort into legit costumes and came out for the evening!! Seriously, our group was one of few groups dressed up two days after Halloween! We looked GREAT and got tons of attention! This is fine with us as most of our group doesn't mind attention :) Adam and I dressed up as Waldo and Carmen Sandiego...perfect combo! But we weren't the only ones who came up with a perfect costume combo!! Chris Kay and Carmen dressed up as Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox, Scotty and Jenny came as a zebra and a game hunter, Tyree was an awesome red and black harlequin jester, Sean Long came "in cognito" (lol), Sean Pierce came as Will Ferrall from Semi-Pro, Nate B came as an OBGYN, and Chris Bowlsby came as "hot" mustard aka mustard costume with a bikini over top :) Missy and Joe didn't dress up, but were sporting Timbers' jerseys so they took on players as their costumes. I was really happy that so many people recognized my costume! Carmen Sandiego is from our childhood and I was a bit worried that there would be too many twenty-somethings out and about who had no idea of her awesomeness, but I was proved wrong! I even took some pictures with strangers :) They were excited to have 'found' me. All in all, it was a fun night with our wonderful group of friends. I love them all and feel lucky to have found a group of friends that enjoys being silly! Please enjoy some pics from the night :) Did I mention that Adam sang karaoke for my birthday?? I heart him :)
