I have had some pretty memorable costumes throughout the years but this was my first, but not my last, group themed Halloween. This Throwback Third Thursday (#tbtt) is for when 8th grade Caitlin and crew were our own alternative version of Rainbow Brite and the Color Kids!!!  Baby Pink (Heather), Rainbow Brite (me), not so Shy Violet (Ashley), Patty'O Green (Megan), and Indigo (Carolyn) We were so cool.

Happy Halloween!     I couldn't get through October without posting something about Halloween! This month's Throwback Third Thursday (#tbtt) is a flashback to Halloween 1987. I was the cutest darn witch you've ever seen, Erin rocked pink hair and sequins as a pretty pretty fairy princess and my father was quite possibly the ugliest cheerleader EVER but my mom made a ROCKIN' Jem! That year I got to be in the annual neighborhood Halloween parade for the Children's Creative and Performing Arts Academy then went Trick-or-Treating in Oceanside where my Uncle Matt and cousin Callie were a pretty stinking adorable bunny family! Enjoy the cuteness (minus dad... )!
 Ok, so when most people use that phrase, they are referring to Christmas but not for someone who has a secret morbid side and loves the occasional ghoulish treat. And, now that it’s October, it’s Halloween decoration time! While packing to move, I discovered I have an abundance of Halloween decorations followed close behind by St. Patrick’s Day then a few decorations for Easter and Valentine’s Day. Because I was always home for Christmas in college, I never acquired any personal decorations. Now, while I am sure over the next few year’s my home will begin to look like the Griswald’s come December, for now, my holiday is Halloween and starting October 1 those decorations came out of storage! I don’t know what it is about this holiday, the start of fall, pumpkins covered in glitter, spooky undertones of goofy cats and witches, costumes... but I LOVE Halloween! Correction, while I do enjoy the occasional scary movie (especially bad ones), the Halloween I love is the sparkly black, purple, orange and green kind (none of that gruesome stuff). I HATE haunted houses but I love trick-or-treating and costume parties. I can barely afford to feed myself but I am still going to buy a few lbs of candy, dress up in something goofy and pass out candy to trick-or-treaters! I am SO excited!
