Already???

Y'all know that I'm nuts for Halloween. I love it. October is my favorite month of the year because of it. That, and pumpkin spice lattes. But I digress...

I think television might ruin my love of Halloween. I say this because last night I saw my first Halloween-themed commercial. It was AUGUST 27 yesterday. That's TWO MONTHS before Halloween. Top that off with Bravo showing Addams Family Values and The Exorcist back to back, and I fear that Halloween is coming much earlier than even I would want.

Please, television/stores/etc., please don't ruin Halloween with overcommercialization the way you did with Christmas. If you ruin this one, what will you have left? Flag Day?

We were given Halloween costumes for Declan (and as he'll be only ten months old on the holiday itself it's not like he'll much CARE).

We're going to put him in the little polar bear costume. All we have to do is find a stuffed seal for him to gnaw on in costume. Heeee.
