Halloween Flashback Friday!

Halloween Flashback Friday!

Halloween can be so much FUN! 

My son Easton and I had a ball every year!

Yes! Even I dressed up every year with him.

We would visit all of our friends homes and entertain all of them!

One of my favorite witches I made for our front porch (1985).

We would decorate the little Victorian house for every season. 

The witches head was made out of an old nylon!

She had no body...just floated in the air!

The witch was on the front page of the newspaper!

We were thrilled!

 We even made a bat out of an old nylon!

The little girl in the photo was our neighbor...Emily.

She is wearing one of the outfits I made Easton.

Easton became a spider that year...and of course Me....Witchie Woman!

The spider theme really was fun. 

The spider below was made out of nylons and his legs were old black socks!
I surprised Easton with a Crayon Costume I made for him.

Easton was VERY happy in his pumpkin costume!

I still can remember him patting the sides because he felt BIG!

He wore the costume around the house for a week!

The Dragon Kid!

I had leftover fabric from a project I had made for a party and

the fabric ended up working well for a costume!

Easton batted his tail at everyone!

The Spider Make-up!

Halloween is so much more than scary things.

To me it was about spending time with my family 

decorating, carving pumpkins, baking and creating fun costumes!

Easton as Mario...the game was so BIG that year!

Easton as a Haunted House!

Just an old box hand painted!

His mask was created from an old sheet and then colored.

He had a blast helping me.

He actually won Best Costume this year!

Even in high school Easton still dressed up!

I ratted his wild hippy hair...straight up! Sprayed it until it was like cardboard!

Hilarious!

I hope this weekend you will take the time and enjoy all the season has to offer!
