Halloween

This was my costume for Halloween this year. I can't really say exactly what I was, but I had fun with this dress. I was looking through Lisi's costume stuff trying to find stuff to be a pirate, but when I found this I just knew I had to wear it. And of course it's not complete without the moon boots!

I wasn't going to dress up for school either because only the teachers could and students weren't allowed. But I went to school like this and everyone loved it! Most of the other teachers dressed up too, so I didn't feel quite so conspicuous.

On Halloween night a huge group of us all dressed up and went out to eat - so fun! Then Lisi had a party at her house. I'm sad Halloween is already over.....

So here's a good story for you -
When I was about 14 or so my friends and I all went trick-or-treating. So we got to this one house and I go up and knock on the door. As I say trick-or-treat, the lady tells me I'm too old and refuses to give me candy. Well, what can you do? Then my friend who is barely over 5 feet tall comes up after me and says trick-or-treat. The lady goes right ahead and drops a few pieces of candy in her bag! This upset me because we were the exact same age, but since I was tall I didn't get candy but she did since she was short. Not fair! It makes for a funny story, but needless to say that was my last year to go trick-or-treating.....
