Halloweeeeeeeeeen!

We are having a costume party here in the office today.  There are only two of us.  And we're having a contest. 


{I am Pumpkin Head}
..And yes, that is a torn open bag of candy that I got into...
...And yes, I am pregnant...

And Meghan...
Is a ghost.

We're taking votes.

The winner will take this beauty home:


No, I'm just kidding.  I'm not giving Meghan my dog. 

But the winner will get THIS:


Happy Halloween!!  Feel free to cast your vote in the comments section.


xoxo, Lauren

ps-

pps- We just moved offices a week or 2 ago & are in the midst of redoing it.  Will be sure to post pics as soon as we have them!

Are you really pregnant?? You can't just slide that in there if you are! :)

Happy Halloween!!

That's hilarious! And Meghan should get a raise for being able to work with a sheet covering her face.

Sarah said...

Wait you're pregnant?!!!! If so that is the most sly announcement ever!

And if you aren't, I'm pretty sure Bryn and I are the first of 6000 to ask after that post :P

Lauren said...

yes I really am pregnant!! (I thought I should explain the bump in the pic! ;) I will post details later!
xoxo,
lauren

AnneHH said...

Christen said...

Yay, baby! I just love following your blog for all kinds of tips, ideas, motivation and warm fuzzies. (Especially since my own marriage this summer and finding out we have a baby on the way, as well!) While BOTH costumes are really quite extraordinary, I have to vote for the Pumpkin Head. :-)

Thanks for all the wonderful posts!

Mary @ Sea Quilts said...

I'm not gonna lie ... the sheer simplicity of Meghan's approach draws my vote. May I suggest cutting holes for the eyes? It still would look very old school.

Thanks for the fun,
Mary

pve design said...

I vote for Meghan because we know deep down you are a winning boss....and MOM and Designer too.
Happy Halloween to you and your wee pun-kin.
3 is a great number! I hope it is a girl.

Congrats to you, Lauren!!! So excited for you and your family!

Brenda said...

The majority of greats throughout history in design and fashion always seem to have a sense of style simplicity hence Meghan has my vote. I can see the love, effort and style that her costume exudes - bhahaha!

Wives said...

OMG LAUREN! You're preggers?!? CONGRATS CONGRATS CONGRATS. So happy for you. And thinking your lovely complexion and hair is due to fall on a little beautiful girls' face this time around :)

I vote for the ghost. Must be pretty talented to type and wear that.

They're all beautiful...first I was thinking the fern star in moss, but then I was captured by the ticking stripe in aqua. I've always loved a ticking stripe.

Your site is so beautiful...sometimes I can't look because it makes me wistful and sad. And sometimes I get inspired.
