Boldly Dressing Up Like No Womack Has Done Before…

Mason knew without a doubt who he wanted to be for Halloween by June of this year. He had never seen the T.V. show, but had viewed trailers for the new movie called: Star Trek. My little adventure guy was very intrigued with what images he saw, but as a Trekkie purist, I felt it necessary for him to watch the Classic series first. After one episode both of my offspring were hooked. Needless to say how thrilled I was. Dressing up as an original Star Fleet officer has been a long time dream of mine. I actually have had most of the props for over 15 years now just dying to have a reason to open the boxes. And thanks to Wal-Mart online, I could afford the light blue polyester dress. It retails for $60, (I am NOT kidding!) but I got it for $25 plus $1 shipping. Oh believe me; I will get my money’s worth out of it. Hopefully one of these days I will be able to get Scott into a red shirt as the ship’s engineer.

We had a great night trick or treating. After two hours of walking in my three inch heeled go-go boots, I was ready to be beamed up. But before we transported home, we sat and chatted with a few of our neighbors while passing out candy to all the ghouls and goblins. Before my very eyes I witnessed the strangest, most unexplainable thing I had seen that night… my kid were more interested in giving out the candy then getting it. It looks like we might have a new Halloween tradition next year (and less candy around the house as well!)
