Is It Just Me?

Is it just me, or does the idea of your child carrying around the head of the character they are dressing up as for Halloween seem just a little bit morbid? Or any character's head, really?

I saw this candy pail at the party store this morning, and I just thought it would be way too weird for Katie to carry around while she was dressed up as Abby Caddabby.


Then I considered letting her carry around Elmo's head and telling everyone that Elmo had seriously pissed Abby off! LOL!!

Well Patrick is going to be Elmo for Halloween and he saw the Elmo head bucket at Target & HAD to have it. Sooo, he'll be carrying his own head around! We will need a picture of Katie as Abby & Patrick as Elmo together! (plus his "extra" head!) LOL. I agree - it is a little weird. I was hoping to find Cookie Monster or Oscar's head actually - for the same reason as you thought about Elmo's!

LOL! Maggie saw the picture, and asked what it was. I told her it was a Halloween candy pail. I asked her if she wanted it, and she said. "No thank you, I'm happy with my pumpkin head ones"!

That is a seriously creepy candy pail. LOL

Wee One is going to be a cowboy riding a horse. It's hysterical. He asked for a horse costume. He got one and then some.

Hey there! It's my first time to your blog. This made me laugh out loud! I agree, a little scary and a little wrong! It's still cute, though. :) Have a great day! Cheers!

Ha! That's so funny! Now I'm not going to be able to stop laughing at all the little kids and their decapitated Muppet head buckets...
