Happy Halloween from Whazzat Kangaroo!
Happy Halloween from Whazzat Kangaroo! Since the age of 3 I
have wanted to be the pink kangaroo from Zoobilee Zoo. Today, me dream came
true! And somehow five of my co-workers were convinced to join the Zooble pack
too! I’m fortunate enough to work at a company that allows you to dress up for
Halloween AND has a costume contest. We spent many weeks of costume
preparation, and even rehearsed the intro of the show to perform at the
contest. It all paid off because we won first place! We had some tough
competition this year, but I’m so glad that people recognized who we were and
the time we put into our costumes.
I had to make the majority of my costume. You just can't find pink kangaroo costumes, and 80's bib vests these days. I'm not sure how many times I'll wear this costume again, but realized how great a full body fleece outfit would make for winter pjs, and the importance of having a pouch to carry around important things like a phone or chapstick!
Happy Halloween! I will now sit and wait for
trick-or-treaters that probably won’t come:(
UPDATE: Find a little tutorial on how I made this costume here:)
AHHHH! This made my day. That show was totally my favorite when I was little. That costume is perfect!
