Cheeky Rags!

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

This past Halloween, Zack and I planned to go camping with some of his friends. Now…Halloween is one of my favorite holidays because I like to dress up. I like how costumes make me feel like I’ve transformed into something new for a change. However, I’ve always wanted to go camping, so I was semi-content.Then Zack told me that everyone else was still dressing in their costumes anyway-SOLD!

I drive to NOLA after work one Friday, meet up with Zack, get into my gear- I was Raggedy Ann and I looked pretty darn cute. We leave NOLA to go camp  somewhere in the middle of nowhere (aka Mississippi). We arrive at the camp site. Zack and I walk up to everyone huddled around the fire. 

And no one else has on a freaking costume! I had been had!

SpideyWeen

I was looking through pictures last night to make a short clip for my grandmother’s service. She was a beautiful woman. One of my favorite pictures of her is from Halloween a few years back. My whole family was living in a house here in Baton Rouge after the hurricane. 

The guy I was dating at the time and I dressed as Spidey that night and we were going to surprise the family when we went over to the house for some bbq dinner. I came up with the brilliant idea to spray my mom with silly string when the door opened. 

Silly string in one hand and camera in the other (to catch the expressions of course), we rang the bell. Unfortunately my mom didn’t answer…my little cousin beat her to the door. The door swung open, the silly string got sprayed and my cousin kicked the hell out of my guy at the time’s shin. The living room filled with laughter.

It was priceless. And the look on my grandmother’s face in the picture I snapped when we walked in told me that she was so proud of me carrying on the pranks that she loved to do so much. 

Have a cheeky Halloween!
