It's no secret we were holiday late bloomers this year. So in that respect, it almost makes sense that my Halloween recap isn't happening until November 11th right? Let it sink in, I promise the logic is perfect!
Before we wave an official goodbye to Halloween 2014, let's take a moment to stroll down memory lane.
It was the night of November 1st, the Day of the Dead, to be exact. Is there a better time for a little leftover All Hallows Eve celebration? Besides the actual day of, none!
Dylan and I had a fantastic rendition of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy this year.
eeeeeh? Check it out! I think we did great!
We even had the Dirty Bubble with us!
In fact, we loved this costume so much we also wore it out to the 2014 Tucson Comic-con. Crowd-goers loved it! People stopped and asked to take pictures with us, it was great! But ... we neglected to take any photos of our own. So, do us a favor would you? Let us know if you find any of them floating on the internet. Moving on!
Back to Halloween 2014 recap!
Every year on Halloween, Dylan and I carve our Jack-O-Lanterns. It's really a tradition that was born out of procrastination and laziness, but now I quite enjoy my Halloween day of pumpkin decorating.
(Mine's on the left)
We gave our pumpkins to our neighbor's compost around November 3rd, I think that's a fitting end for the little fellas.
Mr. Bones decided to hang out and greet Trick-or-Treaters with us.
I just realized I didn't do this recap in date order. ~shrug~ oh well, it's all the past right?
2014 was a great Halloween. Sure, it took me a little while to get into the swing of things, but then it all came and went - and then went off without a hitch! You were a great holiday, little buddy. I promise in 2015 I'll be ready!
Halloween 2014 taught me a very valuable lesson:
Thanksgiving and Christmas 2014 will not slip through the cracks!
You're darn right fairy godmother!
BRING ON THE HOLIDAYS!
I'm not going to hesitate for a second! I've already indulged in Garfield's Thanksgiving Special, and I have every intention of watching it again, maybe even 2 or 3 more times.
If you have yet to treat yourself to this heartwarming tale - what are you waiting for?! It's like 12 minutes long! Hit the internet already, remember "the more you eat, the more grateful you are gonna feel"
I know that the Christmas spirit is on my side, because just the other day when thrifting for some goodies I found the ugly sweater to end all ugly sweaters.
It's a hideous, over sized, knitted sweater with more ugly sweaters embedded within it.
Now I can just sit back and wait for the Ugly Sweater party and contest invites to come rolling in.
