These
Excellent Costumes get awards for Runner-up
Best Costumes at the 2008 Halloween
Party. |

Dan and Judy Bates wore wonderful 1800s
Mississippi Riverboat costumes. However, Dan informed me
they actually Dickens costumes.
Mark Twain/Charles Dickens, big deal. Either way, they are
great! |

When it comes to "Big Bad Wolf", this guy is
very impressive.
If I'm Grandma, I sure don't want him waiting for me.
Sorry, I don't know who he is. Maybe someone can help me out!
|

Rowena Roche and Charlie Denton were
definitely the coolest of the Hippies! Now that I think of
it, I don't recall hippies being this clean cut
or costume-coordinated. But they were still gorgeous together!
Maybe they are a Disco couple. The Peace symbol has me
confused. |

Jackie Chang and Jack Benard were positively
groovy!
And yes, this is more the "Look" I recall from this era.
|

Mike and Brenda Dwyer as Joe the Plumber and
Mrs. Joe
|

I don't know their names, but I thought
their outfits were gorgeous
|

Jim Colby as Steve Irwin the Crocodile Hunter
and Marlane Kayfes as some sort of bird. She made the
costume, by the way.
|

Betty and Keith Baker were colorful and very
cute as well!
I like the mustache.
|

I don't know who Beetlejuice and his
girlfriend are, but Becky Bratton definitely seems put out they
had the nerve to wear the same costume as she did! |

I do not know who these two ladies are, but I
enjoyed their outfits.
Their ribbons say "Shopping Fair". They are practically twins!
I wonder if they are twins in real life. |
A TIE FOR THE CUTEST PICTURE AWARD

These guys didn't win best costume,
but they did tie for the Runnerup "Cutest Picture Award" |

Maite Rombado and Leroy
Ginzel also tied for
the Runnerup "Cutest Picture Award" |

WINNER, CUTEST
PICTURE AWARD

The hand's-down winner of this year's
Cutest Picture Award goes to our photographer,
Steve Gabino,
and his beautiful girlfriend Vivian Gufstafson.
Now surely you competitive types will complain that Steve had an
unfair advantage. Tough. They are too cute not to win.
