I began my celebration of this All Hallows Eve as Rosie the Riveter, due to the fact that I had a costume more readily available and less care-intensive than Marylin Monroe(but don't you worry, Marylin came out later ;*). At the ward dance party, we were among the first to arrive (as usual) and it was awkward (big surprise), and the music was pretty lame, but it was still fun. We won the prize for best chili, which wasn't as great of a compliment because we were the only ones who brought chili aside from the activity committee members. Sharlene won the prize for best costume; we hunted through DI until we found an ugly, purple dress that I'm sure once belonged to a 12-year-old beehive, cut the top layer of material off of the skirt, pinned it up to knee-length before drawing, cutting out, and stapling pictures of stars, moons, sun, saturn, and of course the Magic School Bus, together with her curly hair tied up in a crazy do to create the fabulous Ms. Frizzle. It was amazing! Maddie also looked amazing (as usual)in her cave girl outfit, complete with a messy side pony tail and heavy brown eye make-up. We had a blast together!
Also, I would be remiss if I didn't bring to your attention that alias Andrew Bingley, mentioned in a previous post, did in fact accept the invitation to join us at the party and again to accompany us to our apartment to watch a movie. ;P Oh, the fates!
