Halloween: Masquerade Time!

Friday, September 26th, 2008

It is hard to believe that Halloween is a little over a month away, and it is time to start looking at Halloween Costume Stores again. I remember rushing around last minute last year trying to find a superman costume for Will (As you can see, I did find one!).  This year I am not quite sure what we are making the kids.  I did find some Handy Manny costumes in Will’s size, so we may go with that.  Madison changes her mind from day to day what she wants to be.  Right now, she wants to be a fairy with wings or a princess.  This is very surprising for my house due to the fact she is soooo not a girly girl.  However, she is old enough to decide what she does and does not want to be for Halloween.  She could be asking for much worse, so I am happy with a fairy or a princess.  I think we are leaning towards a princess since last year she was supergirl, the year before that she was Tinkerbell, and the year before that she was a flower.

How do you decide what your kids are going to be for Halloween?

Halloween

I have finally figured out what to make the kids for Halloween. I am going to get these halloween costumes for the kids. Madison is going to be Supergirl:

I am also going to make Will Superman:

I am thinking that this should be pretty cute which is pretty much why I chose them. I can’t decide if going with the same theme costume is cheesy or cute. I am going for cute. I am not even sure if he will make it trick or treating. The last two years have been around forty degrees. However, if Bill doesn’t take the afternoon off, I’ll have to take Will when I take Madison trick or treating. What are your kids going to be for Halloween?

Why, Why, Why?????

I got this in an email and I thought I was going to die laughing:

Do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?

Why do banks charge a fee on “insufficient funds” when they know there is not enough money?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn’t glue stick to the bottle?

Why doesn’t Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an “S” in the word “lisp”?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, “It’s all right?” Well, it isn’t all right, so why don’t we say, “That hurt, you idiot?”

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that’s falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?
