Tonight we went to a neighborhood Halloween party. We got candy. Our costumes included:
Football fan (husband--he really was listening to the BYU game in one ear the entire time)
Dorrie the Witch (me)
Maskless Darth Vader (three-year-old)
Constantly Toddling Giraffe (one-year-old)
Dorrie is awesome! She was my favorite character as a child--she showed me that girls can be witches with power to save everyone, and they don't even need matching socks! Every book started with something close to this line: "This is Dorrie. She is a witch. A little witch. Her hat is always crooked and her socks never match. She lives in a house with her mother, Cook, and her little cat Gink."
I nominated your blog for versatile blogger award! Thanks for all the great posts that I love to read!
