halloweenie party
this year I was lady mary from downton abbey! :)
I type this with a bowl of Halloween candy in front of me, and it's
the most
tempting thing ever. I already took a little bag of peanut M&Ms, but that is
absolutely
it. I had enough sugary treats and halloween-themed goodies over the weekend at our annual halloween party - and it was a blast. I was Lady Mary Crawley from Downton Abbey, and I do have to say, the costume was a hit! $12 on gloves, and that was it. the rest, I owned!
It was a festive weekend, with lots of oranges and yellow hues in the leaves outside; weather that actually required some sort of coat, and plenty of pumpkin-everything to be had. Georgia and Scout even dressed up to add to the mood :)
