It’s one of my favorite days of the year – Halloween!
Halloween is just the best, isn’t it? You can be anybody on Halloween. I mean, I love all things ghosts and witches, but the fact that you can transform yourself into anything for Halloween and it’s completely accepted, might be my most favorite thing about this holiday.
We hosted a Halloween party last weekend and had a few well-known guests…

I loved my witch costume last year, but Cruella this year might be my new favorite! A few people have asked me how I ever found the perfect coat for this costume and my answer was, “I just walked to my closet.” 😂 I actually do love fur coats and have managed to amass a small collection from thrift stores. They’re all faux – I can’t even afford real furs from thrift stores. 😂
A thrift store dress, this wig, red gloves and cigarette holder completed the ensemble – along with some dramatic makeup, of course.
The Circus was a genie this year – and such a cute one! After I saw the kind of costume she wanted, I knew making it was well above my pay grade, so we ordered this one and it worked out perfectly.
As you may remember from Halloweens past, Grunt is adamant about being comfortable and casual in his costume. He found this shirt himself and it did work out perfectly.
Other guests included…
Marge Simpson and Al Borland – they make quite the pair, don’t they?
Pooh and Eeyore also stopped by for a visit! Aren’t they adorable?
Happy Spooking tonight, friends!

LOVE your Cruella, absolutely perfect! Grunt is hilarious, lol, that shirt worked out so well! Circus’s outfit is DARLING. I’m gonna have to talk my granddaughter into being a genie next year!

Thank you, Brigitte! Isn’t that genie costume so fun!? I was really surprised at how well it was made and how affordable it was. I think she’ll have fun just playing dress up with it too!
