When I was younger, I always got so excited after Halloween because that meant Thanksgiving and Christmas were on their way. My mother used to have decorating assignments for me to do for the house; spray the ornaments with glitter, sew the stockings, place the lights on the roof, etc. It was just always so much fun for me to do all these activities because I got to do them with my family, especially my mom. But as time went by, our traditional decorating of the house began to deteriorate. My mom started working, I began taking A.P. classes and also I got a job. First, the lights ceased to be put up, then the ornaments started to fall apart and the stockings seemed to be too much of a clutter in front of the fireplace. Even today our work ethic for our own house seems to have disappeared when it comes to the holiday spirit.  I think it is time for my mother and I to get back on track this Thanksgiving and Christmas season and go out of our way to make it a special one. Maybe someone can dress up in a Turkey Adult Costume this thanksgiving to set the mood. Possibly, we can get an Elf Adult costume and prance around exclaiming it’s Christmas to everyone. Even more possible, but not likely, either one of us can join a religious play in Mary Adult costume in the theme of Christmas just for kicks. Are these ideas ridiculous and absurd? Yes, but there’s nothing wrong with coming up with fun ideas of what you can do with your family this holiday season!

The more people get into the swing of Halloween, the better they want their costumes to be. This year there was alot of demand for people wanting the higher quality costumes. Many of them wanted the costume manufacturer In Character, because they already have a history of having the best quality costumes. One of my favorites for men was the Carribean Pirate Adult Costume and the Deluxe Vampire Adult Costume. I liked them both so much, not just because the quality of the material they were made from, but that they came with so many accessories and attachments. I like how this year they also had sort of funny costumes that were also higher quality like the Deluxe Big Bad Wolf Adult Costume. I’ve seen other ones that looked similar, but up close you could really tell which one had better quality material. A very popular costume with the ladies this year was the Deluxe Fallen Angel Adult Costume. I think this was popular because it was very different than a standard angel costume and the wings that came with it were really awesome an not flimsy material. I like the fact that these high quality costume manufacturers are also making their costumes for people in bigger sizes. The Deluxe Queen of Hearts Adult Plus Size Costume sold out so quickly I hardly remembered that we even had it. I think the next step for these companies is to make their costumes for babies or pets for people who want to match up with their little ones. I’ve seen more companies making pet costumes to match with sexy costumes and that is just genius, these other companies need to catch on!
