First, this picture tickles me…

For the past several years (ok, like ten) I have used the same costume over and over, mostly because it’s fun ~ I mean who doesn’t like an excuse to spend the evening on roller skates? But also because I couldn’t think of anything I liked better. And Roller Girl elicits such a positive response. This year, however, I am trying something new! (Even though I’d really like to go back to the old faithful with my short shorts, my trusty roller skates and my new Obama t-shirt, I am going to *try* and resist).
My costume is mostly ready, although I am having a hard time attaching my homemade headpiece onto my head and into my hair without it slowly slipping off, but I trust that by this evening, everything will work out just deliciously.
Here’s a hint to what I am dressing up as for Halloween…

Tell me ~ what’s your costume?
Let your inner child come out to play and have a fabulous good time playing dress up!

Today I am wearing a collared shirt, sweater, ironed jeans, and pearls. I am dressed like a Young Republican. Oh wait. I dress this way every day. I guess it’s not a costume.
I am not dressing up this year, but instead, eating a lot of candy as my way of celebrating Halloween.
I’m a pirate and Jodie is an Indian.
