Halloween was pretty much a bust this year. I barely celebrated -I didn't even give out candy! So I’ll just share my very favorite Halloween with you.

A few years ago some of my best friends and I put together the best Halloween costume ever. It was a group costume. Two of us were graham crackers, one a Hershey bar, and the other a marshmallow. We even had some someone dress up as a bonfire!

We decided that college-aged girls were not to old to venture out trick-or-treating. I should have known I’d spend almost the entire night laughing when we walked off campus with a group of guys shouting “HEATHENS!” at us. Apparently going out on Halloween is frowned upon at Bible college. Who knew.

Our costume only worked when we all stood side by side, and since city stoops are tiny and do not fit 4-5 people at a time, no one knew what the heck we were supposed to be. We kept making poor Sarah (the marshmallow) go first to get candy. The look on peoples faces, and guesses as to what her costume was, were priceless. Note: Climbing stairs when you are wearing a sheet stuffed with pillows/a GIANT piece of cardboard is no small feat. We finally decided to just call it a night when Sarah’s pillows kept falling out.
