The beginning of fall means three things ... the leaves are changing, people are obsessed with all things pumpkin spice, and the discussion about family Halloween costumes can begin!

Ever since my daughter's first Halloween, I've been making Halloween costumes a family affair. When my kids were babies and toddlers, I was able to get everyone to go along with my ideas for family Halloween costumes.
But since then, my girls have had (how do I say this...) "stronger" opinions on their role in our family group costumes, but we still all enjoy finding a common costume theme as a family!

The best part about family costumes? There are no rules!
You can choose characters from one of your favorite movies or gain inspiration from a real occupation.
You can be silly or scary, and you don't even need to worry about covering all the characters... just pick your favorites, anything goes!
We recently asked you on Facebook to share your favorite family group costumes. You guys delivered with some amazingly creative and fun costume ideas! Here are 13 we loved:
