Happy Halloween

I am very much looking forward to handing out Halloween candy to trick or treaters tonight. This is the first time in a very long time that I've lived in a house as opposed to an apartment or dorm on Halloween, and so--teeheee!--I get to hand out candy to trick or treaters. Yesterday, I saw a little human being walking out of Kowalski's with her mother wearing one of those full body fuzzy pajamas in green with a stuffed animal aligator head on top. So very adorable.

I also did the whole Halloween celebration with ones' peers thing on Friday night and got dressed up as Michele Bachmann. I was going for scary, and I think it worked.
