Its almost HALLOWEEN!!! I swear this is my favorite holiday but just wait until November and you will find out that Thanksgiving is my favorite, but dont stop there because I'm pretty sure Christmas is my favorite too! I just love, love, love holidays with all of my heart. Its a day to do so many extra special things! I like to randomly do nice things for others but I think that holidays just give me extra license to do them. This Halloween I am dressing up as Little Red Riding Hood. I have to work on Halloween but I'm still dressing up at work. Im also baking cup cakes as we discuss this. Im going to decorate them like spiders and then give them to my students. Its going to be tons of fun!

So the Halloween fun so far has been quite a bit more than last year. I went to my very first corn maze with Shari Beari and all the gang from her apartment. It was so much fun, but sadly I wore a bright color so I couldn't hide in the corn and scare people. In any case it was a blast! They even had this pit of corn that you could play in, I'm pretty sure it was for little kids but I think we had just as much fun as any 5 year old could in that pit!

me and shari!

The second thing I did for Halloween was to carve Pumpkins, I carved some with my cousin Britney then I carved more with my cousins Rhiannan and Marynell. 

I only have the one picture of Britney with our pumpkins tho...

The third thing I did for Halloween was to go to a Haunted house with Miss Emily, Kirk, Sleight and Emily 2. We had tons of fun. First we went out to dinner, then we saw a scary movie (Paranormal Activity 3) then we went to the Haunted house. We went to the Haunted house called Nightmare on 13th. Click here to learn more about the Haunted House! It was soooooo scary! Im pretty sure I climbed up a wall at one point because I was so scared! And of course the boys made the girls go first because as kirk pointed out "We boys wont get scared so you girls have to go first so you can actually enjoy it." WHATEVER!!! Kirk was scared out of his mind! He just didn't wanna go first.

I have come to the conclusion that if I cant see the monster, he cant see me. Therefor I close my eyes and hide behind my hand!

The fourth thing so far that I have done for halloween is to take the girls Trunk or Treating. That is where you go to a large parking lot and people have their trunks open and they are full of candy. The kids walk around and say "Trunk or Treat!" then they get some candy. Its just like Trick or Treating but less walking. Marynell dressed as a Witch and Nan dressed as a Vampire! They looked so good! After that we came home, cooked pumpkin seeds and watched Casper the friendly Ghost!

I love Halloween. It may just be one of my favorite holidays of life. This year I am dressing up as little red riding hood (skanky version) Im super excited. Now I hope I can find some fun parties to go to while wearing my new outfit! So far I have gotten to go to a corn maze with some friends for halloween. Im thinking more fun like this will follow in the near future!!!

On a lets get you caught up note, I got a fantastic job at a college. I LOVE IT!!! Im kind of an assistant teacher. Big step up from being unemployed thank goodness.

Also I had my 21st birthday! went and partied the night away. I got a tattoo on my foot as a present to myself as well as getting my nose re pierced. It was sooo much fun!!! There I am with my first legal drink!!! A Malibu Hurricane!
