The Hollow Weenie is coming
We listened to a children's radio program on XM a few years ago in which a skunk, called Loofa, was scared of the Hollow Weenie.
Ever since then, I just CANNOT call this "holiday" by its real name. I must call it The Hollow Weenie.
And just WHAT is the point of this "holiday" anyway? I find it quite weird.
Maybe I'm just a party-pooper of a mom, but I don't feel like shelling out for all the STUFF that goes into this one (lame) day: costumes (even if you make them, they cost money!), pumpkins for everyone, candy, decorations. I just don't have the brain strength for this one!
Anyway, participate we shall. And WE'LL LIKE IT!!
Here's the line up:
1 kitty cat
1 Native American
1 James Bond
1 yet-to-be-determined
PS If we're going as a family to a Halloween open house, do the grown-ups need to dress up? If so, uh oh.
What do you think?

| oops, already posted that pic! oh well, pumpkins are always appropriate blog fodder |
I too think all of the halloween hype is D-U-M-B. You should see how much some people decorate their houses here or how may blow-up things are on front lawns. Colin is amused by how incensed I get about it! :)

Open the door. Share the candylove. And wear a great big Jesus Loves You smile. :D
