This last Monday night my wife and I had dinner with our friends that introduced us to each other 49 years ago. Darrin was my friend and Kristin was my wife's. Both my wife and I and Darrin and Kristin got married the same year. Over the years we have regularly met and had dinner together. This last year and a half they have been serving our church in Texas so we haven’t had the chance of getting together. Lots of catching up to do.
Since it was close to Halloween Kristen had to talk about our first Halloween as married couples. My wife and Kristen worked at the same office so they had time to plan together. Kristin thought it would be fun if we all crossdressed. My wife jumped on the band wagon and started the ball rolling. I had purged before we got married so I was reluctant to start this ball rolling again, but she was so excited I gave in and submitted to her. (My wife didn’t know about Shaylee before we got married) We borrowed a suit from an old neighbor who had a son about my wife's size and my mother took one of her dresses and sowed the seams up the side so the dress would fit. My wife had a friend who was a cosmetologist come and do my makeup, a well done professional job. I emerged as this very tall beautiful girl and my wife was this short aristocratic man with a curled mustache and beard.
When we got to the party, Kristin greeted us at the door with this very puzzled look on her face because she didn’t recognize us. (By the way Darrin chickened out and they didn’t crossdress.) My wife spoke and said “I thought we were both going to crossdress”. That is when she realized the tall brunette was me. The costume was a hit and I became the center of attention. Everyone wanted me to do something girly. Darrin kept asking me to talk in a girls voice not knowing how hard a thing that is unless you have practiced a lot, I never have tried. I talked in falsetto and he went crazy with how I should have been a girl for real. Blake's’ date followed me around all evening asking strange questions about how I felt about being a girl. She had never seen a adult male dressed so passable as I was and was so intrigued she forgot about her date. Kristin was so taken at my impersonation, there haven’t been too many time when getting together that she hasn’t talked about it. That is why it has been my best Halloween ever!
