Costume Report 2013

Hi everyone!

I hope all of you had a wonderful Halloween!  I can't believe it's come and gone and Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away.  It seems like last Thanksgiving was just yesterday.  This year has gone by so fast, too fast really, I think time needs to slow down a little!  :)

I had four people give me a costume report from their Halloween celebrations, which I will share with you now!

Here is my friend, Morgan's, report from Alaska: saw a lot of Batmans, one was a retro Batman!  My son was Batman and even some of the girls were dressed as Batman.  I saw a man dressed as Mario from Mario Bros. and saw two people in white with a white unicorn head on.  A few girls were dressed as Link from Legend of Zelda.  There was also a Men In Black agent.  There were only a few zombies.  I also saw a family where the dad was Winnie the Pooh, the mom was Tigger, one kid Eeyore, and the baby was Piglet!  I also saw a lot of cats.

Thanks for your report, Morgan!  The Winnie the Pooh family sounds so cute!

Here is my friend, Roxy's, report from Kansas: we had 4 princesses, 1 grim reaper, 1 werewolf, a retro batman, a ninja turtle, a power ranger, a ninja, 2 fairies, Cleopatra, Iron Man, a couple of zombies, Spiderman, kitty cats, and a skeleton.

Thank you for your report, Roxy!  I'm starting to see a theme here...

Here is my friend, Susan's, report from Missouri: I saw a couple of kids with a Monsters University theme.  My neighbor kids were minions, handmade minions at that!  Super cute!  I had a ninja and a Skylander character.  My friend's daughter was Princess Leia, I was a nurse, and my friend was a cat.

Thanks for your report, Susan!  I have a friend whose daughter went as a handmade minion as well, very cute!

For our last report here is my co-owner, Chas, from Massachusetts: a purple dragon, chick, ninja, mobster, several princesses, super girl, geisha girl, police officer, several bugs, butterflies, a few witches, pirate, Delmo (anime character), mouse, 2 Miss America girls, a girl was dressed as a doctor, and another girl was dressed as Rapunzel (she was doing fine until her wig blew off), and a baseball player who was having issues with his mustache.

Thanks for your report, Chas!  It seems that ninjas, Batman, and princesses were a big theme this year!  Thank you to those who sent in their reports, I really appreciate it!  I hope to do this again next year to see if the trends change at all. 

Remember, if you have a movie or book review you'd like me to share, please feel free to contact me! 

Have a great weekend!
