Whatever your age, there's something fun about dressing up. It gives us times - however briefly - to step away from our normal lives and remember "Life's Better in Costume". I have so many wonderful memories of dressing up for Halloween with Angeline, and as she quickly approaches the age where she won't be home to celebrate Halloween with us anymore, I find that I appreciate these last fleeting moments of childhood even more! As this is one of our last Halloweens together, celebrating has become more important than ever for our Family!

Making a decision on what I want to be this year was pretty hard! There are some fantastic costumes to choose from. I could easily spend hours looking through BuyCostumes.com "Ideas Section". There are suggestions on costumes, make-up tutorials, even trends and fun facts. I had several choices, but finally opted for the Batman T-Shirt Adult Costume Kit for Chris and wanting to match I chose the Batgirl T-Shirt Costume Kit. I like both of these because they are simple, but fun.
Though I imagine by the end of the night, Chris's voice might be a bit raw from whispering "I'm Batman!" in his best Michael Keaton voice!
Now on the flipside, wanting something a bit more girly I also chose the Warrior Maiden costume. Because everyone knows that you need two Halloween costumes! One for handing out candy to the trick or treators, and one for your own Halloween festivities! No damsel in distress for this lady. I want to look smoking and fierce! It comes with a teal flowing dress with plunging halter, headband, and wrist cuffs. This maiden is taking no prisoners!
For Angeline, I picked Oz The Great and Powerful China Doll costume. It's a flirty babydoll dress in pale blue. But don't let the gentle look fool you, the China Doll is anything but fragile. While this costume is completely lovely all on its own, Angeline will be turning it into a zombie china doll. What can I say, she likes zombies...
Of course, I had to include Bailey and Toby in the festivities and chose the cutest Ghostbusters Dog costume that includes a shirt and backpack.

I always get excited for Halloween and seeing this post has me giddy, even in February. Perhaps I will pick a few outfits for the kids to use when they play dress up!
