Watch Out for That Tree!

Aerin as Tarzan

Swinging into the parade is our next entire, Aerin. Aerin is dressed up as Tarzan this year for Halloween. Amongst the ivy, you can find Aerin wearing a leopard skin costume in style. Thanks, Aerin, for stopping by to show us the ropes.

Aerin's favorite horror movie is The Emerald Jungle (aka Eaten Alive, Doomed to Die) (Warning: the trailer of this movie is horrific both in the fact that it shows people being eaten alive and in the fact that it was filmed in the 1980's. Watch at your own risk.)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face

Franklin as Lady Gaga

Next in the parade is Lady Gaga! O wait, no that's Franklin dressed as Lady Gaga. Great costume Franklin, so believable. I can hear the kids screaming from down the street. Speaking of screaming, Franklin's favorite scary movie is Scream. Perfect example of a scary Halloween movie. Thanks, Franklin, for joining our parade and bring us a little pop culture.

Is there a doctor in the house?

Riley as an important doctor

Riley, one of your youngest sheep on the blog, has issues with being the baby of the family, so Riley decided to be something respectable for Halloween... Something that takes brains and an education - a doctor! And Riley is in the house and in the parade with this amazing costume. So believable. Thanks Riley for being on call in the parade!

Riley's favorite movie is Clifford's Halloween - Boo! Riley wants to be big and strong, so what could be better to idolize than a big red dog?

Traffic School

Quinn as a Traffic Engineer Intern.

Next in our costume parade is Quinn as a "Traffic Engineer Intern." Quinn thought this internship would be really great, but the office was chilly and the hours awful. But we all know that the world wouldn't go round without those dedicated civil servants. Thanks Quinn for keeping our streets safe for our parade!

Quinn's favorite scary movie is The Crazies (warning: trailer is rated R), because it takes place right in Iowa! Quinn likes this movie because it is a reminder of a few people/sheep Quinn knows...

Slumbering Shepherdess

Welcome to the 2nd Annual Costume Parade! This year we are starting off a little earlier due to the great number of entries. To kick off this year's festivities we are announcing our first ever Costume Parade Grand Marshal. This is a very important role as this position is responsible for leading the way and setting the stage for the rest of the parade entries. A parade that we hope you enjoy and brings in the Halloween season as a safe and fun holiday for all!

With out further ado we are proud to announce that this year's Grand Marshal is Shaun the Sheep as Little Bo Peep! As we all know, Shaun the Sheep is a huge sheep celebrity and we are always honored to have such a iconic sheep in our parade.

Shaun the Sheep as Little Bo Peep

Shaun chose to dress up as Little Bo Peep for Halloween this year in Iowa. Shaun is wearing the latest fashion in sheperdess and is accessorizing with a lovely white gold crook. Shaun is all ready to lead the sheep in the parade...just as soon as they can be located. No worries, Shaun. We are sure the sheep will follow shortly, wagging their tails behind them.

Shaun's favorite Halloween movie is Things That Go Bump... yes, it's a Shaun the Sheep episode! As Shaun likes to point out, all good videos include talented sheep. Thanks Shaun for being this year's parade Grand Marshal!

(If you would like to participate in the parade, please send entries to Sheep.4225SC (at) gmail.com. Please, only one sheep (or whatever plush animal that provides you with therapy) per picture. And remember to provide explanation of costume if needed, general location, and favorite Halloween /Scary movie title.)

Reminder for Call of Halloween Costumes

Next week we will start our 2nd Annual Costume Parade! We have gotten a lot of great entries, but we know there are more out there. The entries are starting to line up for the parade. So if you want to be in the parade (and believe us, we want you to) please send us a picture of your plush therapy buddy in costume at Sheep. 4225SC @ gmail .com (no spaces) right away. If you need a little more time but want to send something in, let us know. We can hold a spot for you towards the end of the parade. But please, don't wait too long. Also, send us the name of their favorite scary/Halloween movie. For more information, please refer to this post. We want this year to be better than last and we need your help to do that! So put your thinking caps on and get creative.

Thanks!
Management....whoever that is...

Oh là là, Boobies!

Boobie-thon is back in full swing and I just couldn't help but join in again this year. I thought I would mix it up a little with this naughty french maid outfit. I mean with Halloween just around the corner it only seems appropriate to put on a costume that shows off my lovely rack. Right?
