Halloween in the UK

That looks great alicia jess is going to look great!

yeah Jess is excited and is loving it already...I have to keep nicking it out of her room because she wears it as soon as I put it down!!

Such a cool costume Alicia! Your daughter is so lucky to have you as a mum!

Anyway, for Halloween this year I've been invited to a costume party at my friend's flat. Should be fun.

that looks great alicia!

we were thinking of going to the cinderella ball-but it's a thursday night.  i'm not spending all that dosh to had fun....and then go to work the next day! but i guess the folks who go probabally don't work. 

I'm looking forward to this Halloween. I'm co-hosting a Halloween themed baby shower for a friend (god, how american is that? Most of the people we've invited have just stared at us blankly when we told them about it).

And since Halloween is on Monday, all the girls at my work are dressing in black (because we obviously have to wear work clothes) but we'll have witches hats to go with it. 

A bit of fun.

I am seeing more an more halloween bits- I saw lots of decorations and even a few costumes at Asda on Old Kent Rd. yesterday; I even saw pumpkins and a "pumpkin carving kit". :-)

Time to dress up.

I WILL have my pumpkins!!!

Last Halloween we were at Six Flaggs over Texas for Fright Night!  :\\\'(

aww..they are all over the place here the Co op is selling them at 1/2 price for £0.79!! I've got 2 tiny ones at the mo..what I'm going to do is get a few tiny ones to use to light the path in our garden and a few larger ones for the pumpkin and blackbean Dahl that I'm going to serve at the party. ...I'm also going to use the small ones as serving/dipping dishes. I'm  going to make guacamole and blue cheese dips!!

They have proper "American-sized" pumpkins at M&S.
