If you know me personally or have read previous Halloween posts, you are aware that this is my favorite Holiday! I hate that Christmas stuff it being put out at this time! Halloween is a day that everyone, even adults can be whatever they want to be, they can escape the every day norms and just have fun! It lets the kids inside all of us be... well, kids! So this year since we didn't have a party planned and I'm the only one that dresses up at work (yes, I got to work in full costume EVERY year) I decided to go for something easy and that wouldn't break the bank. I purchased the wig for 9$ at Spirit Halloween and the dress on Amazon for 20$ which I plan on wearing often. It's nice, non costume material and it's a really cute dress! I had the rest at home- the tights, makeup and shoes. The skull is just one of my decorations for the house but it seemed fitting! I had a lot of fun being Wednesday Addams! It's one I haven't done before!
Chance even had his Halloween bandana on for the special day!
Brian and Bear waiting for Trick or Treaters- excuse the couch that's Bears blankets he cuddels in when we are away at work.
We love to decorate but only get 8-10 trick or treaters every year. It's the most disappointing feeling. We want to really go all out but it's so hard when there aren't a lot of people to enjoy it. Maybe we will go all out next year and REALLY decorate and just do it for us cause we love it and we enjoy it!
Here's a short little video clip of my Halloween day :) I hope you all had a wonderfully creepy day and did any of you dress up???
Also I took a whole bunch of photos of my craft products and my goal is to be up and running by end of October on my Etsy account... so - VERY SOON!
Lol - I am in a mood right now. I don't know if it's good or bad or if I am happy or sad... just a mood. I decided to write this post to get my mind off of some things that have been going on and it may not be the most detailed, interesting post but I am here to keep my mind busy before bed.
So here's me :) Hi there. Hope you are having a fantastical day!
We are preparing for some colder weather and broke out the jackets for the dogs :) They weren't too happy.
I was on vacation last week and my Mom and I went to Starbucks. We had to laugh at what they wrote. When asked what her name was she said, "Chris, Shannon's Mom" and this is what we got ;)
We also attended a friends beautiful wedding- they hired the same DJ that was at our wedding so it was really cool to see them again. We had a blast and all my old co-workers were there (almost all of them). It was also really awesome to see them too!
Brian got Bear a Halloween costume and Bear wasn't the happiest of Lions!! LOL!
Also, I recently saw the trailer for Annihilation and learned that it was a book trilogy and had to read the first one to see if I liked it. Well, I'm obsessed and just ordered the second one from amazon! I can't wait to see what happens- one of the most suspenseful books I have ever read! I just finished Big Magic about a week ago and flew threw this one! The trailer doesn't look like I would have thought tho so I hope it does not disappoint. I know the movies are always different but I really hope they stay close to the story- it was so good- go get it- read it! YES!
