Halloween

Every year I say I'm going to skip Halloween because I don't know what to wear. Then every year, the parties sound too fun and I end up wanting to go. This leaves me searching for a costume at the last moment. Due to my lack of planning, my costume will have limitations. No elaborately sewn costumes. However, I do not want to run out to the costume shop and shell out too much money! Time to devise something more than a sheet over my head, but without spending much. I found some good websites with creative and easy costumes:

Just as I was sorting through my closet and craft supplies, I had friends to the rescue. A friend suggested costume swapping. Brilliant! Now I have a great costume for free! Gotta love frugal friends :)
