Some people act surprised when they find out I don't like to carve pumpkins for Halloween. It surprises me that they think I enjoy it.

Halloween is over...Bring on the Holidays! Alex's costume is actually a remade Egyptian costume. We ripped the top layer of fabric with a razor blade, then used watercolor paint to "dirty it up". I covered the Egyptian waste band with the goth embellishments. The weather was perfect in Colorado...two years in a row!
