With Halloween coming up this Saturday, we asked some of our City Dads Group members around the country to send us photos of their best family costumes from years past. Let’s just say, we have some pretty creative people among us.
Halloween family costumes: Rocky Balboa and Drago from “Rocky IV”
David Kepley, Dallas Dads Group: “I was the ref.”
Halloween family costumes: “Family Guy”
Chris Routly, Portland Dads Group: “It’s hard to tell, but Stewie is trying to stab Lois.” (Look closely at the hand “Peter” is grabbing.)
Halloween family costumes: “Star Wars”
Beau Coffron, San Francisco Dads Group
Superman and Superboy
Larry Interrante, NYC Dads Group: “Last Halloween, Peter and I decided to be superheroes. He is wearing classic Superman and I am Superman from the movie, ‘Man of Steel.’ I think Peter is a super boy and, to him, I can do anything, so I am Superman.”
Halloween family costumes: “The Wizard of Oz”
Victor Aragon, Chicago Dads Group
The “Despicable Me 2” cast
Philly Dads Group co-organizer Chris Bernholdt dressed as Gru; his wife Susie as Lucy; and his son Adam as a minion in 2013. Learn to make the minion costume here.
The “Toy Story” cast
Once again — Beau Coffron, San Francisco Dads Group
And finally, we have three entries from the City Dads Group party king, Michael Moebes of our Atlanta Dads Group:
The “Harry Potter” cast of characters
The Von Trapp family from “The Sound of Music”
Halloween family costumes: “The whole Scooby-Doo gang” – Shaggy, Thelma, Daphne, Fred, a ghost and even the Mystery Machine.
Editor’s Note: You can find a few more dads and their families in costume on the NYC Dads Group site. Go check it out and send us some of your best family costume ideas for the scariest holiday of them all.
These are awesome! Well done to those guys (and mums) for the efforts!
