Halloween

I have never spent Halloween this way. Firstly, I had a costume, and while some of you may raise an eyebrow to the idea…I rocked it!

My friend Erin did my make-up and this picture doesn't do it justice - she did an amazing job!

Short story…when I was on my way to Erin’s house to get my make-up done, I was wearing the head stuff (because it was so amazingly realistic!) and I was on the US-60. Well, I get level with this VW Jetta and look over; this guy, about my age, is driving and he looks over at me and half smiles before he takes in what he’s looking at and then in a split second his eyes triple in size and his mouth drops. I can’t imagine what was going through his head, but that was by far the funniest thing I have seen in a while! I laughed so hard in the car tears came to my eyes…haha…okay. Moving on...

When I was done with my make-up I ran to the Mac store to pick up an adapter for Travis before I headed over to the party.

I went to the San Tan mall and for some reason, I couldn’t for the life of me parallel park! I finally just gave up and parked straight, but like…2 yards away from the curb (good thing I didn’t take too long because I was definitely in-line for a ticket).

Anyways, by now I had my whole get-up on. Make-up done, do-rags and scarf in place, and of course dress on (which I made by the way). When I walked into the Mac store I drew an eye from everyone. One guy pulled out his iPhone and snapped a picture of me and whipped around to look at speakers when I looked over at him. It was so funny…

The party was…HUGE. I helped out in the front and there was a non-stop line from 10pm – 12:15am, people were saying they were waiting 45 minutes just to get to the door! What an experience! Travis and his buddies were terrorists and we were all definitely the most original group of costumes there.

I didn’t get home until 5am and it was definitely the longest day of my life. Almost a week later and my body still hasn’t recovered completely.
