So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Affordable Halloween Costumes Guaranteed To Send You To The Winning Stage

By Susan West

We can become whoever we want to become on Halloween. It's the one day of the year where we can dare to be the characters in of our dreams. This holiday is all about having enjoyment and laughter. Kids and adults will admit to a spirit of fun as they don their Halloween costumes and prepare to eat all the extra sweets they're sure to have. Take advantage of this one day and make sure you take the time to select just the right costume. If you don't, things may not turn out so nice. http://www.costumecauldron.com/Kids-Belly-Dancer-Genie-Costumes.html

There's only one time of year that men and women alike can wear something outrageous, skimpy, and scary without being talked about or looking crazy. Do your best to select a Halloween costume you'll love wearing this year. This is the time to let your personality shine through. You can play dress up as if you were still a kid. Become your favorite celebrity for the day. This is the day, take off those street clothes and become something different, let your alter ego out if you want!

Before you commit to a certain costume, consider where you plan to wear your new one night only persona. Certain costumes may not be appropriate for certain situations. For example, do you plan to wear that terribly revealing belly dancer outfit to the office? You would be better off to forgo the exotic performer for something more conservative.

Let's say you do have a revealing outfit that you want to wear to the office; you can make it more conservative by putting on a leotard or tights instantly making it more conducive to the work environment. Have fun; just make sure you are appropriate.

With some Halloween costumes, it is not so much about what it reveals than what it says. If your desired look makes an off-color statement, you may want to reconsider wearing it to the Halloween party with your future in-laws . Remember, even a party with your friends and peers may include children or older guests who find certain statements offensive. There is a time and a place, so be respectful to your host or hostesses' other guests.

Buying (or making) something that will be able to stand up to the task of being worn under various conditions will be your first job. You don't want to have too many pieces that won't stay in place; there should be nothing sliding off of you every ten seconds. Halloween costumes should be exciting and attract attention, but they must also be wearable.

When it comes to Halloween costumes, they need to be durable. The last thing you want is to end up frustrated because of your costume selection. You want all head pieces and masks to stay where they belong. Do what you can to ensure that you don't regret your selection.

A clever Halloween costume is going to be a wonderful conversation starter. Putting in a little time can make all the difference. There are certain outfits we see year after year. Sure, the occasional variation may make them stand out, but who do you really remember from last year's party? The guest who came in the watered down French Maid costume, or the one who dressed as Cher, full wig, makeup, microphone, the works, and was a guy! http://www.costumecauldron.com/Kids-Biblical-Jesus-Nun-Costumes.html

Halloween costumes are one of the main things that make the holiday fun. This is the time to let go and dress up in any wild or crazy way you want. This is an opportunity that you shouldn't let pass. Plan it out, take your time, get ready early and have a ball this Holiday with an appropriate costume that you'll enjoy wearing! Edited by Glinda Zuladra
