I know some of you may be running around thinking "Oh my GOD!" Where the HECK do I go now? Stores are so expensive and unaffordable. My child has been wanting to be Snow White for a while now.
Have no fear. As well as Annies costumes, we also have the solution with eBay-the online marketplace. Everyone who goes there leaves with what they went for. There is lots of competition which means LOW PRICES. (I like the sound of that!)
Come on in! Check them out!

Halloween PERSONALIZED Present ideas
Running out of ideas for Halloween?
Yes, it can be pretty hectic I assume. Even I am thinking about many ideas on what to do for Halloween. One idea I came up with is personalized Halloween Presents. You know how on Christmas, children smile wide when they see the presents for them under the tree?
Why not do the same here with Halloween? Of course, there will not be a tree to put the gifts under. Why not be creative and perhaps get several brooms with spider webs on the top and put tiny gifts and candy on the bottom.
You can find cute (and affordable) Halloween presents from here. I love it so much and I ordered several things from them for the last three years. It really helped put the smiles on everyones faces!

Party ideas for Halloween
You might be someone who is throwing a party or someone who is going to one. Either way, you are looking forward to a night full of excitement regardless of if you are a guest or if you are host.
So what are some good ideas?
1) SPREAD THE WORD WITH FUN AND SIMPLE INVITATIONS
You know how you can get when you see a party invitation. Picture getting something like this:
You know it gets you all excited for a party. This is a perfect example of fun and simple. The best thing is that many of these invitations work with
2) PUT ON GOOD MUSIC
# Halloween Hits (Rhino Records)-Like the children version of Halloween songs.
# The Nightmare Before Christmas-no comment needed. Everyone likes this!
# Just spooky sounds of shrieking or bats.
# Very Scary Music: The Halloween theme!
3)CREATE STATIONS FOR CARVING, SCULPTING, AND PAINTING
Pumpkin carving is an art. No doubt about it. You can hold contests and give a little prize for the one that is voted the best. Or if you don't want to make a mess, you can paint the pumpkins instead of carving them. It works either which way!
4) ADD SOMETHING SPOOKY
For example, you might tell your party that someone was not able to make it. Instead, have them show up in a black cape and spook everyone.

In the mood for a good horror spooky movie?
I know I am. There are so many choices but which movie do you pick? They have bloody gory movies like "Saw" that you can watch with your friends or movies like "Friday the 13th".
Personally, I pick "Halloween 2" to be the scariest that I have seen.
On Amazon's website, a reviewer says that "This movie is one of the best sequels released..It starts with a clip of how the 1st one ended and brings you right into the continuation of the story...it's just as suspenseful as the first with the same feel and cinematography. The 1st and 2nd films are great to watch back to back...a TRUE sequel...check it out!"
I suggest picking this movie up if you are seriously in the mood for buying a good scary movie!

New addition-Peppy Wear.
As some of you may have noticed, I put a banner on the side. It is for more costumes and excellent women's clothing.
As trends change every year, it becomes fun to try to catch up and see what you can get from it. Sometimes a certain cartoon or design may be the IN thing at times.
I invite you to take a look at Peppy Wear. They have a great selection of clothes for everything. We all have different tastes and they can offer the solution to your Halloween problems!
Have a great one!

The origins of Halloween
Spooky ghosts and goblins are the least to worry about at this time.
What is Halloween about? The costumes and such? The trick or treating? It goes beyond that.
Truth is that this used to be a Pagan Holiday dedicated to the God and Goddess or Paganism. They were believed to restarted another cycle of life.
Witches and Warlocks would dress up and attempt to please their ancestors and please the spirits that may roam around there. Little children were given presents (present day candy) to please them. Now, we give out candy and maybe other goodies.
It is always a past time. I can recall all the times I have been trick or treating. It has been amazing. There are some who oppose this tradition completely. Some people believe that Halloween and trick or treating is a tradition from Satan and is Hellish. Some do not care.

What can my child be for Halloween?
The possibilities are endless! It is even better when you are a child! They can be so much for Halloween that it is hard to even start! Since costumes and children go so well together, many costumes are designed with your child in mind.
For example, take this Mickey Mouse costume.
This child dressed up as Mickey Mouse is too adorable! Good news is that it is available from Annies Halloween Costumes. You do not have too worry about your child not sticking out.

This Baby Pea costume is available for infants. This is from Annies Halloween Costumes as well. Now, you can even take your little bundle of love and joy around with you. Why should they be left out? It is very warm and cuddly to ensure your little one stays warm.
This girl is dressed up as Hannah Montana. Which girl is not crazy over Hannah Montana? All of them are.
It comes complete with a gold jacket, gold top, black leggings and silver glitter belt to make the whole Hannah Montana experience realistic. Maybe your daughter can live the double life of the star of the show!
Here is another example of what your child can do. There is also a male version of this costume. This is from the the movie "Incredibles!" This makes for a very memorable Halloween costume.

"Halloween (also spelled Hallowe'en) is a holiday celebrated on October 31. It has roots in the Celtic festival of Samhain and the Christian holy day of All Saint's Day. It is largely a secular celebration, but some Christians and pagans have expressed strong feelings about its religious overtones.The day is often associated with the colors orange and black, and is strongly associated with symbols such as the jack-o-lantern. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, wearing customers, ghost tours, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, pranking people, reading scary stories, and watching horror movies."
