This is Halloween....

Happy Halloweeeeeeeen!

Goofy self-portrait.  I'll try to add some better pictures later!  

I had given in to the fact that I wouldn't be dressing up this year until last night at 7:00.  By 7:30, I had a costume ready to go!  I remembered seeing this image on Pinterest {Well, actually, my friend reminded me about it at small group.  Hi, Amber!}, and decided that maybe a doll costume was doable after all!

One purple baby doll dress, some white tights, a big bow tied on a headband, my navy blue mary janes from junior prom {how scary is it that I still own these?} and some make up later...voila!  I'm a doll.

Funny story about the tights...I had some in my drawer, but since I havn't exactly worn white tights in at least 10 years, they were a little snug.  I could have made them work, but decided I'd be alot more comfortable at work if I just gave in and bought some new/bigger ones.  We ran up to the grocery store to return a Redbox, and I grabbed some new ivory hose from the hosiery section.  I got all excited cause there was a package with a "$1 off now" coupon attached, but it expired in 2008!!!  I guess they don't sell many pantyhose at the grocery store these days. 

I'm working, of course, but it's cool, there are lots of Halloween festivities going on.  Tonight my dad and his girlfriend are coming over to watch the Chiefs game and hand out candy at our house.  We're going to make chili, and perhaps have some beverages.  I can't wait to see all the neighborhood kiddos.  They're always so fun!

What about you?  Did you dress up?

P.S.  In regards to the title of this post, I have never seen Nightmare Before Christmas...Isn't that sad? I just know the song from hearing people sing it.  I really need to watch that movie!
