Happy Halloween Friends!

Yesterday I shared my homemade Halloween costume for this year, and today I thought it would be fun to share some of the details from my annual Halloween Party!

As you know I dressed as Raphael from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but for the party I added an extra special accessory. My red mini glowdoggie was the perfect accessory, and as a bonus it kept me safe too.

One year during our annual Halloween party I happened to escape out the front door, but thankfully I was wearing my Glowdoggie, so I wasn’t lost in the dark for long. So now every time we have a party my Glowdoggie is a necessary accessory!

I was so excited to show off my costume to all my friends, but of course everyone was fashionably late!

My dad dressed as Mr. Clean, even going as far as to shave his head! Now that’s Halloween dedication.

Mom was Inspector Gadget, and I was just really bummed that her go go gadget helicopter didn’t actually work!

We were all decked out and ready as the first party guests started to arrive.

I was excited to see my pal Trooper showed up dressed as a soccer player, but I really couldn’t figure out why he kept screaming GOOOOOAAAALLL all night long when the soccer ball was tied to his own back!

Trooper loved my costume and was convinced I had pizza hiding under my turtle shell, so all night long he kept checking!

As more and more guests started to arrive I was excited to see that we even had a horse guest! Now the party was really getting started!

We partied and partied and then partied some more, but wouldn’t you know, my pal Trooper was the first one to hit the floor. He just can’t hang like I can!

As my guests headed home for the night the spooky figures in the front windows of my house waved goodbye….I’m pretty sure some of the party goers had nightmares!

I’m sad that the Halloween season is coming to an end, but I’ll have one last hurrah tonight as I bark at all the trick-or-treaters!

Happy Halloweenie!

Ok so it’s one more day until Halloween, but I just couldn’t wait any longer to reveal my 2013 Halloween Costume!

Cowabunga, Dude! Ammo the Dachshunds 2013 Halloween Costume - Raphael the Ninja Turtle

Fittingly I decided to dress as another Hero of sorts, Raphael the Ninja Turtle, who even happens to be named after a famous painter. So I thought it was pretty appropriate that I chose to dress as him, since I am a painter as well!

Now being a Ninja Turtle doesn’t come without it’s own set of responsibilities. I don’t just carry around my Sai’s for fun, I have to protect the city from bad guys, specifically Shredder!

While I’m fighting crime my mask helps to protect my identity, although I’m pretty sure there aren’t too many masked turtles running around the city, but nonetheless!

I’ll let you in on a little secret though, the real reason I chose to dress as a Ninja Turtle is I hear they get all the pizza they can eat!

Weapons, pizza, and heroes – now that’s my kind of costume!

I even have an awesome turtle shell that my mom made to protect me from attacks! (and special thanks to Rebel Wag for custom making me my turtle hoodie) I’m totally ready for battle!
