From bunnies to Cleopatra, to a jailbird, to Ke$ha, I've done them all. I currently already have my costume planned for this year but I will not reveal it! You will just have to see. Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. Whether it be the candy corn, fun costumes for pumpkin shaped Pillsbury cookies, it all comes together in one perfect bowl of candy.
Preferably, Twix and dark chocolate Milky Ways.
I know what you're saying most of you are probably like what? What about Christmas? Nope not me, Halloween is without a doubt the best holiday there is. I wait for Halloween all year long until the next year and then repeat the process. I have grown to love Halloween even more than when I was a trick-or-treater back in the day.
My family heavily decorates for Halloween and dos some really fun things to celebrate the holiday. Below are my top five favorite Halloween traditions.
1. Decorate
Decorate your house from head to toe so it looks like a haunted house. My dad has about every decoration in the book from huge spider webs to lifesize moose skeletons, to a huge glow up pumpkin. I also have a table set with all skeletons and plates, knives, forks, and everything else to allow them to enjoy a nice meal. Skeleton dogs and rats also cover the table. I'm not going to lie it kinda freaks me out when I'm home alone.
2. Be extra, very extra
Go all out on your costume, Yes that means spending your money meant for your meals that week on the costume, Speaking from experience, it pays off. You want to be the gal that everyone goes I wish I thought of that. Earrings, tattoos (fake or real lols), shoes, everything.
3. Multiple Costumes
Be prepared with multiple bomb costumes. You never know if you will go to more than one Halloween party. You want to be killing it at every event.
4. Cookies
Bake Halloween cookies. I Used to love to decorate cookies right before Halloween. I would use that bright orange frosting and buy all the fun sprinkles. It was one of my favorite things to do and it always got me in the Halloween mood. I plan on decorating cookies with my friends here at school as it comes closer.
5. Cards
Send a Halloween card to your grandmother. Let her know that you love and what you're planning on being or doing that night. She will appreciate it so much and it will make you feel good too.
