Pleasant Places: We don't so much DO costumes

We don't so much DO costumes

Andrew doesn't even like to wear clothes, let a lone a mask, hat or other cumbersome clothing. And I'm way too cheap to spend a bunch of money on a costume, anyway, so...

Andrew went as a hunter. That's right. Camo clothes and a toy gun.

Ethan went as a sleepy baby. No, we're not neglectful parents...we live in Phoenix, where chocolate candy actually melts on Halloween, so naked baby legs are completely appropriate.

Both boys did, however, end up trying on their cousin's costume.

We enjoyed trick-or-treating...

...coming home for taco soup...

...and plenty of play time with friends and cousins.

Here's our family on Halloween!

And me with the boys.

FanTABulous quote

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -from A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson.
