Happy Halloween!

So, this year we figured we'd better be prepared since we enjoy the wonderful world of apartment living. So, how did we do that you ask. We went to Costco and bought a HUGE box of Tootsie Pops---100 to be exact. The fun fact, we only gave away like 10...kids don't hit up apartment complexes like they used to. Okay---like my brother and I used to. Which is just sad.

But, there is happiness to follow. My ward was throwing a Halloween Dance on Saturday so I, along with a couple friends, dressed up and headed out. The pictures aren't the greatest, but at least they're here. Ah, the joys of being single with no children to take Trick-or-Treating! Hanging out with friends and having a justifiable reason to be goofy is ALWAYS fun.

What were these three amazingly gorgeous women you ask? Well, we have the shiny, shimmery mermaid, Julie Powell, and Julia Childs. If you click on the picture, you'll get more detail-like the factastic patches C made to emmulate the cooking school Julia Childs and her two friends were involved with (for those who haven't seen Julie and Julia, go watch it---FUN show that inspired two costumes).

Had to get a picture of K's be-gilled shirt. I very much admired her creativity in coming up with a modest mermaid outfit, and it just looked really cool too! So, you can kind of see the gill on the back---if you look really closely. :) And the shimmer was her extra touch! Loved this costume.

But-to end on a positive note---there's always next year. I hope everyone had a fantastic time and enjoyed family bonding opportunities! Happy Halloween!!!
