Halloween

Well we all know what comes on October 31st. Halloween, trick or treating, and Halloween parties! I am going as a girl from the time of castles and kings. I'm sure everyone is as excited as I am. I want to remind everyone of the rules of trick or treating. Stay with a small group or an adult at all times. Have a flashlight for when it gets dark. Have some spare batteries and have fun!

All my friends are having fun shopping or making their costumes. My friend Sean is going as a computer, so remember, be creative! I have friends going as goblins, dinasours, princesses and princes, famous singers, clowns, ghosts, and so many other things! As we were shopping my mom said "I think this dress looks great!" She said that about a million times, but as soon as I saw the dress from olden times I fell in love with it.

My friend got sad when she saw my Halloween costume, she said "You are so lucky, you get to buy your costume, I have to make mine." Then I said, "buying a costume doesn't matter, its more important that you have fun wearing it and go trick or treating with friends on Halloween." She gave me a hug and said thanks.

Smile and have fun!
