Thinking of Halloween Costumes All Ready

posted in family, kids |

School will begin again on Monday. Summer vacation is all but over. So, what’s the next major even on the calendar? Why, Halloween of course! I do believe that Halloween is the favorite holiday of both my husband and my daughter. My husband loves decorating the outside of the house and making everything appear to be very scary. His favorite thing is watching from the front window as the the trick-or-treaters approach the front window and listening to them scream or panic from all the scary affects he has created. My daughter loves all the decorating too, but she really loves picking her costume and going around the neighborhood to collect her bucket loads of treats.

The past few years my daughter has decided way in advance what she wants to be and I have made my daughter’s halloween costumes myself. I’ve created everything from intricate Egyptian queens to simple candy costumes. This year however, she’s still undecided. I’m thinking that we may be purchasing her costume instead of me making it. If I were choosing a costume for her, I might pick the Geisha costume from Pirates of the Caribbean.

My daughter has grown out of the kids costumes so we’re looking at adult (not too sexy) and teen costumes to give her a lot of choices. I know it seems really early to be thinking about Halloween costumes, but if we wait too long, the better costumes will sell out. Plus, if we order before October 10, we can use coupon code PPP05BLOG2008 to receive 5% off the price.It is interesting every year to see what is popular in costumes. The boys always like the scary, demon like characters. It’s the girls that always seem to go more trendy.

    I really like that Geisha costume! It’s very cute and not too adult-ish.

    I have no idea what my kids will end up being but the boys always want the gory costumes. My daughter will probably want to be a princess. (she’s 5…Disney still has a major hold on her..LOL)

    Actually, I agree with “not too sexy”. I’m steering my gf from wearing anything too revealing this Halloween. I want us to go as a king and queen. Since my lady is a bbw, I asked her to look into a (edited) It should work out for us and safer too.
