Halloween is really one of my favorite times of the year. I mean, I love Christmas and all that cozy happy stuff, but Halloween is just plain fun. I love decorating and pumpkins and (not gonna lie) candy. But I love, love, love dressing up. I love it so much that I tend to get a little to into my costumes. This year all of us had fun dressing up (except Josh who might actually try it next year - his own words). Alex wanted to be Master Chief from Halo, but ended up deciding to be an arm soldier. Thanks to Uncle Jeremy for supplying the gear. Abby wanted to be a troll originally (Smidge to be precise), but ended up deciding that she wanted to be a veterinarian. One trip to Goodwill and I had all I needed. Evie was easy. She wanted to be a purple cat named Cookie. Done, done and done!
Then it was down to me. I don't know what inspired me, but I decided to do my very first cosplay. I say cosplay because it really ended up being more cosplay than costume. I went as Professor Trelawney from Harry Potter. Boy was that fun! Goodwill is my friend when it comes to costumes. So is the Dollar Tree.
We had a blast even though the day was pretty cold. We also went to two trunk or treats on the weekend. The kids have so much candy from all this that we'll be gaining weight for weeks! In face, I already feel fatter! I need better self control. Happy Halloween!
