i'M bAcK! aRe YoU hApPy?/ Halloween!

Hey Everyone,
Yes, it's true. Recently I have considered myself too busy to keep my blog updated and I "strayed away from the fold" for a little bit, but I've decided to start doing a lot better and update me blog regularly.
To start off with I'm going to talk about one of my favorite holidays... HALLOWEEN! It's one of the most fun holidays because you get to be something that you're not usually! I wish this holiday lasted a whole week so that we could dress up six days in a row in different costumes. The candy is just an added bonus to this day, especially since I'm older and don't get as much of it as the good ol' days. Do you know where Halloween came from? There is a holiday celebrated by some Christian religions called All Saints Day to honor the deaths of the "good" saints that have passed on before them. Well some people started to realize that it wasn't fair to honor only the "good" saints, but the "bad" saints should be honored too. So they created All Hallow's Eve which comes the night before All Saints Day. We know this day as... HaLlOwEeN! I'm going to dress up as Little Bow-Peep this year and I'm actually sewing my own costume from a pattern. I'm hoping that there are a lot of fun Halloween parties up here in college, because my last couple of Halloween's had some pretty lame moments, such as two years ago no one wanting to go trick-or-treating with me (but Katie and I dressed up like sweet old ladies!) and last year when I had to work concessions for drama at a USU basketball game. Well that's all for now. I hope everyone is happy that I finally wrote!

This is the picture from the actual pattern I'm making and I just really like this other picture that I found on the internet :)

It's about time silly goose! I am really glad you wrote and can't wait to see your costume at our sweet family halloween party! I guess you and me are incharge of the mystery dinner. So we should probably get going on that. I'll get in touch with you soon! It's good to have you back.
