I really enjoy creative and awesome Halloween costumes. I get frustrated when shopping for costumes for myself I see the shelves overwhelmed with costumes that barley have any material to them and cover even less. I can just imagine now, the look on the faces of the other families if I was to put on the “nurse costume” and take my seven year-old daughter Trick or Treating.
