Playing Dress-Up

It's that time of year again when we must start figuring out what everyone is going to be for Halloween. Because I scored a great Medieval princess costume in April at Goodwill for $5, I no longer have to wonder what to wear. MiniMe decided to be Hannah Montana for the night & Target.com has confirmed that the wig has been shipped. Laze-E is still weighing her options. I keep reminding her that I am not paying retail prices for a costume & that she'd better hurry up so that it (whatever it is) has time to get here.

Man, well he's not going to be here anyway, but if he was, I am ready with a 2 liter bottle of Mt. Dew for a prop.

Our community is hosting a Trunk or Treat, so now I have to deck out one of the automobiles too. I have a great idea that I am working on, but it is a contest & I don't want to give away my strategy to idea thieves who are trolling my blog. I will give a hint though: I bought 11 silver Christmas bulbs, 4 colored sheer cutain panels & a black velvet shawl at the Thrift Shop today & I plan to use a ball, aluminum foil & one of the huge wardrobe boxes from our last move. Any guesses?

I also bought the greatest costume EVER for Rosie to wear. I can't wait to get pictures of her.

For all of you still searching for costume ideas, might I propose dressing as BB Lady? It's a really simple look and you wouldn't even have to go shopping for clothes. Think of the money you could save! No make-up, messy hair, over-sized t-shirt & bikini panties. Of course, you'll need to sport a Red Rider BB Gun, but I hear those are readily available at your local Walmart.

Hey, I have an idea. Let's all take a vote. Those in favor of Coral Anne dressing as BB Lady for Halloween, hit the comment button and say "yes". My rule is that if there are 10 votes in favor, then Coral goes as BB.

So, what do you think?
