Halloween was so fun this year. Our department at work dresses up each year as a group and tries to compete a bit with the directors. This year, we were so on our game. We out-did everyone! Our department, consisting of the core four girls, plus two interns, plus one nurse (who wanted to cature the spirit of the day with us)dressed as the Misfit Beauty Queens...Miss Fortune, Miss Behavin', Miss Print, Miss Understood, Miss Educated, Miss Matched, and Miss Cellaneous (miscelaneous). I was Miss Print. We decorated our formal wear with items related to our titles. I had news print taped all over with funny misquotes and misprints. We had tiaras and wands to complement our look. We had a blast. For Halloween each year we have a carnival for the kids with games and crafts. Afterwards, we do a big parade with the kids, parents, and staff through the hospital. Participating units give out treats to the kids, and we all get to show off our costumes. We provide costumes for the kids who don't have any, so everyone has a blast!
That night, our building has a big party with costumes and the whole deal. Preston was out of town for work, so I went for a bit with a neighbor of ours. I transformed my costume into a moth (don't ask how...but it worked well), and Amelia went as a ballerina (or tiny dancer). We had fun, and she wanted only to walk around the whole time, so it was pretty exausting for me. It was a good time all around.
