Halloween is just around the corner!

This is when my inner geek truly comes out. I love Halloween!! I have pulled all the boxes of decorations and such out already, taken inventory and have a list in my purse of "wants" and "needs" if I see things on sale. I have decided I'm going to be the Red Queen from Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland movie. I now have short red hair (thank you two awful haircuts for forcing me to go so short), but I think with some curlers and teasing and a lot of hairspray I can make it a heart! We hit Goodwill over the weekend and got a black dress with lace sleeves and a vneck, a red tablecloth for the underskirt, a gold tapestry shower curtain for the outer skirt, and two white sheets to use for draping over the furniture (we're going to make it look like an abandoned house sort of). I'm so excited!! I'm already planning a menu for our party (we have a HUGE party every year), this year I'm adding edible bandaids, jello worms, and shrunken heads to the menu. I CAN'T WAIT! And no, I can't sew, my mother has offered to help me make the costume. And I quote "this'll be fun and we can do it easily". She's a miracle worker with fabric! I'll post pictures of our progress :P
