We had the plastic smock / plastic mask with holes combos and re-used them like crazy. I also sometimes wore my dancing recital costumes but my mom always made me wear a turtleneck under or coat over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369829 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:47:55 +0000 Honeybee 369829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a bear for like 5 years in a row... I was also Princess Jasmine (from Aladdin) and The Mask (from that Jim Carey movie). My senior year in high school I dressed up as my friend's shadow. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369814 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:41:46 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 369814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dressed up as a cat a lot. Black tights, black leotard with a tail sewn on, and black cat ears. Then a little bit of eyeliner in the tip of my nose and drawn on whiskers. Super easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369804 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:38:26 +0000 MamaMoose 369804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Funny enough one of the most memorable was when my mom sewed matching bee costumes for me and my brother! We were pretty darn cute : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369654 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:59:09 +0000 alayaya 369654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first Halloween costume I know about was a clown when I was quite young. I've also been a cat, a scarecrow, a witch, a ghost girl and I can't remember what else.</p> <p>The clown costume was great because I had my snowsuit on underneath </p> <p>[attach=2831/12/mcroil.391x600.IMG_0008.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369436 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 10:56:44 +0000 littlebug 369436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a duck, Wonder Woman, a princess, Barbie and the Rockers, a ghostbuster.... those are the only ones I really remember.

Not the most practical! And a tube of toothpaste - I loved that one! I wore a lampshade on my head as the lid :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369247 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 09:49:03 +0000 babynumber1 369247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cowgirl: I am so jealous of your awesome memory.

The most famously bad one I had was a dolphin. </p> <p>This pic is me as a dolphin, my little sis as a clown and my brother as a karate guy. </p> [attach=319/12/mcribs.359x520.Halloween2.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369217 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 09:37:43 +0000 mediagirl 369217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a mouse for about 4 years. My Mom made the costume for me (huge) as a baby and I just grew into it. Then I was a cat a few times.... Oooo one I remember - I was a bunch of grapes. Purple balloons. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369183 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 09:23:17 +0000 Alivoo01 369183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was snow white for a few years and pocahontas for another year. I don't recall what else I was other than those two because my mom made my costume. I think I stopped dressing up in 5th grade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-369080 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 08:10:27 +0000 LemonLong 369080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom made most of my costumes.

We went to a community dinner where I ate a hot dog and managed to spill ketchup all over the front of the dress. So I decided I would be a zombie princess that year, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-368642 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 21:30:48 +0000 lawbee11 368642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only two I can remember are Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and the pink Power Ranger! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-some-of-your-halloween-costumes-growing-up#post-368639 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 21:28:01 +0000 Mrs. Bee 368639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only one I can remember is a plastic Minnie Mouse mask.
