A Little Mermaid

So, Josh and I didn't end up going out to Halloween party this weekend... therefore, no costumes. BUT! We did have a costume for his sweet little Corgi, Slugs. Unfortunately, it was kind of small for her (oh, that seashell bra...), but she still looks adorable.

And we gave her lots of treats for being such a good sport.

WHAT SHOULD I BE??

'Ween Tings

Svpply.com just came out with the ability to make sets of products... AKA, a total time-waster for Allie Fraley. Here's one that I made of awesome Halloween things.

Next post I'll do a few Halloween costume ideas... I am struggling to figure out what I want to be. Put it off till the last minute. What are you going to be for Halloween?

*As you can see, I went a little crazy with my newly downloaded Instagram app. So late to jump on the bandwagon, I know*

This is Halloween

Have a ghoulishly enjoyable Halloween weekend, everybody! What are you dressing up as? (You better be dressing up, it's simply the best!) I have a fun costume planned, but I'm going to keep it a secret... There will be photos next week, I promise. So, in conclusion, have a good one: watch a scary movie, drink some spiced cider, do the monster mash!

Of Note:

The first kiss ever captured on film!

This makes me think of my Dotty

Do you know what you're going to be for Halloween yet? I sure don't. I'm thinking of just pulling something together based on what I already have. But here are a few fun ideas for you, if you need them!

October

I love October. I love spooky things. Yesterday I walked through the cemetery by my work. It was a brisk and clear autumn day, and it was perfect, walking by all of the tombstones. I sound like such a weirdo. What do you like about October?
