Friday Frivolity, Crazy Costume Edition

It's time for this week's edition of Friday Frivolity - the blog party for all things fun, funny, hopeful & happy!

Just wait until you see what we dug up for this week's theme...

At last week's party, we started gearing up for Halloween by sharing our favorite scary movies.

And then I totally forgot to include the linky code - it must've been spooked out of me - so if you came all the way over here to link up and couldn't find it anywhere, I'm so sorry!

This week, we're continuing to get in the spirit (Spirit - get it?) by finding some of the craziest (& most clever!) costumes out there:




















Little known geeky fact on that last one (you completely get an education in all the Disney secrets when you grow up in Orlando):  Madame Leota's voice is Eleanor Audley, who voiced both Lady Tremaine (Cinderella's evil stepmother) and Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty's evil godmother) in the movies!

There's also a tombstone for Madame Leota in front of the Haunted Mansion - it's hilarious!






Now, on to the link-up! 


The Hosts:




Host, Lisa, Friday Frivolity Superbowl / Football Memes Edition! (Sort of, Not Really...  ;P) Plus the Friday Frivolity LINKY PARTY - the blog link-up for all things Fun, Funny, Happy, and Hopeful!

The featured post for Syncopated Mama this week is........
