Halloween 2012

Posted on October 31, 2012 Written by Tonya

I’ve never been a huge fan of Halloween.

I don’t like dressing up, covering my face in paint or dyeing my hair green.

I couldn’t make a homemade costume, like my mother did for me, to save my life. I just don’t possess that kind of creativity.

We have a few decorations up around our house, but the lawn isn’t covered in fake spider webs or ghastly ghouls that scare the crap out of you when you walk past and we reserve the twinkle lights for Christmas.

We didn’t even carve a pumpkin this year. Lame, right?

But, I do LOVE to dress Lucas up!

And I enjoy candy corn and fun size candy chocolate bars just as much as the next person.

Here’s what Halloween has looked like the last four years…

The pit crew guy is my favorite because Lucas was very particular about what he wanted to be this year and the blue makes his eyes pop!

Children make the holidays, don’t they?

Wishing everyone a happy and safe Halloween.

    He is simply adorable! And you’re right… that blue does make his eyes pop!
    I hope that he has fun trick or treating!

      Thank you! We had a lot of fun between his school parade and TWO trick or treating adventures.

    Halloween isn’t my favourite celebration, either. We tend to be pretty low-key about it, too. But children do definitely make the holidays!

      Children pretty much make everything better. 🙂

      Oh that monkey costume made me laugh!It does feel like a long time ago in someways and in others, like it was just yesterday.

    I am with you…Halloween has never been my favorite for me, but I do like to see Eddie love it. And this year was fun because he actually got it and he got to pick his costume.

    And you’re right…the blue makes Lucas’s eyes pop. SO CUTE!
