Do you know what gets me excited?
Well, that question has plenty of answers, but I have one in mind. Did you guess it? It's October.
Do you know why October gets me excited?
Because October has thirty-one days. On the last of those thirty-one days is a little treasure I like to call All Hallows Eve. And I like that eve. A lot.
The strange things is I've never needed an excuse to dress up. I suppose I just love that others have one.
Very few things make me happier than seeing people enjoying the custom that I participate in on a regular basis.
In case you are drawing a blank on what to be this year; I would like to present you a few ideas.
So here they are.

I STILL tell people how you make the perfect Grace Kelly from Rear Window (one of my favorite movies, by the way). But in this group, I only can have a top 3:
1. Grace Kelly
2. Luna Lovegood! (you are perfection!)
3. Rosie the Riveter.
I LOVE the Rosie the Riveter costume...I may have to consider copying that one! Great costume idea!
in love with the harry potter costumes. you are the best luna of all time.
You really look like Luna! Great costume. Mary Poppins is so cute too!
love them all! I'm thinking about being a string cheese.
Oh my gosh I love you as Luna!! I'm going to be a ninja this year...
Where did you get those freakin' awesome pants for Malibu Barbie?! That is fantastic! Since I'm a loser, I don't really dress up, but Sevy is going to be Tinkerbell for the 4th year running (impressive when this is her 5th Halloween), and Teik is going to be a Garden Gnome. Last year he was an American Gladiator circa 1990.
Wait a sec. Is that YOUR owl??? I love it, where did you get it? I need a good owl in my home.
Batman opening night is awesome! I love that you dress up all the time. I need to do that more.
I am going to be shooting a wedding in New Orleans for Halloween so now I am not sure. I have to think of something fun.
ooo these are some fun ideas, i especially like the string cheese and the garden gnome. i may have to convince marcus to be a garden gnome sometime...
