Um, yeah, haven't posted in awhile. Bean is 13 and in middle school. She's at that age where she's transitioning out of toys and into clothes and electronics. This will probably be her first Christmas without Littlest Pet Shop, which makes me kind of sad.
However, she still wanted to go trick-or-treating this year. She went as a steampunk goth, and I dressed up as a Handmaid.
I also didn't do the annual list last year. I was out with Bean, hubby had to work; and, bless his heart, Dad G tried to keep a list for me. However, his handwriting and spelling are both atrocious so I couldn't make out half of what he wrote down. Anyway, other than a couple of skeletons, witches, and other kidlets I have no clue what they dressed as, we had fewer than 20 last year.
This year we had 45. I attribute this to the fact we didn't decorate last year but we did this year. Anyway, here's the list!
1 clown
1 police officer
3 princesses
3 skeletons
1 teddy bear
1 demon
1 Transformer
1 spiderweb-covered guy
1 Minecraft character
1 Patrick Mahomes (the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs)
1 generic superhero
1 vampiress
1 guy who didn't bother wearing a costume
3 Captain Americas
1 sniper
1 prisoner
2 kittycats
2 Spidermans
2 witches
5 zombies
1 pirate
3 sullen teenagers
1 ninja
1 Jason from the Friday the 13th films
1 soldier
1 Harley Quinn
1 Joker
1 construction worker
1 Dracula
1 boxer
