Seriously....are you okay?

I'm not really sure if I should be concerned or not.

I know we're all given moments when we're in a non imaginative state or are experiencing a complete and total lack of motivation to use our imagination, or maybe we're just plain bored and don't want to bother.

I can understand. Believe me! I CAN UNDERSTAND!! I've been there!!

It takes a lot of effort and creativity to come up with some sort of awesome idea to head out on, what I consider, one of the biggest and bestest nights of a kids life.

Halloween.

Trick or Treat!! Halloween Apples! Getting dressed all up in some sort of costume and heading out to holler at houses in an attmept to fill your pillow case with candy? What more could a kid want?

When #1 was 14, he was a big kid. A bigger than your average sized kind of kid. As Halloween approached, we were tossing around ideas for his costume. He didn't really have a clue what he wanted to go as. Then, about three days before the big night, he came home and said he was going to go trick or treating dressed as a girl.

Oh....okay...

It frightened me how beautiful a "girl" he was. He was gorgeous. Blue eyes. Long blond hair. Makeup by Mom.... he was absolutely stunning. The hair was long enough that I could curl it and make it all Farrah Fawcett like... he was gorgeous! Or maybe I should say "she"? He looked that good! The small amount of effort required was soooo worth it!

Fast forward three years!

#2 is now 14. Well, almost.... he will be in 6 weeks or so... and is heading out tomorrow night to holler at some doors and try and grab some free grub. Then he's off to a party. And once again, the discussions were endless, what to dressup as? How about this? How about that? Nothing seemed quite right. And then, a couple of days ago, the decision was made.

He decided that he really wanted to dress up as...

You got it....

A girl!!!!

Oh my...

Ciao!!
