Halloween: Part One

What are you going to be for Halloween? My children used to pull out the box of costumes to see what would work for that year. There was always lots of princess attire as well as witches and a few odds and ends that could be transformed into aliens, ninja turtles and pirates. This year’s top costumes revolve around pop-culture icons such as Lady Gaga and movies like Avatar and Toy Story 3.
As you prepare for the big night out, remember to keep those costumes safe. Not too long as to cause a tripping hazard. Be careful with candles inside of pumpkins. Masks and head gear should not obstruct the gremlin’s vision. And speaking of vision, remember to take a flashlight, especially when crossing streets. Until next week, happy costume hunting!
