About Lipstick Cover-Up

This blog is about one woman facing each day - making it happen... surviving... putting up with... overcoming challenges... laughing or crying... and sharing her inner beauty - all while wearing Apricot Beige #7 or Frosted Rose.

Always remember...

"When you are a daughter, mother, sister or girlfriend--you are proof positive that daily surviving can be a beautiful thing."
-- Jodi Hills, Author of Slap on a Little Lipstick...You'll Be Fine

Happy Halloween!

Hope you all have fun trick or treating if you do that sort of thing. Both of my girls are Cheerleaders, my son is a bionicle, it's a lego robot warrior thingy...yeah I know, I tried football player, but it was a no go, he loves the bionicle outfit, I think the baby is going to cry when she sees him!

I'm going to try and not eat all the candy, but I'm sure I'll have a piece, ok maybe 2!

What i love is that my kids like to give the candy out more than go and get it, we go to maybe 5 or 6 homes in our subdivision, and we go early so they can get home and and give it out and see other kids outfits. We also have a tradition, every halloween hubby makes chili, we eat it together, with cheese and sour cream on top and we watch whatever movie is on the Disney channel and then go into sugar shock and pass out. We toss the candy in a day or two b/c it does lose it's luster.

Tonight we'll have spooky music playing outside and cobwebs and a black light on the front porch, if you're in Virginia, Stop by, we'll have plenty of chili!

    Happy Halloween! The costumes sound cute. My nephews are totally obsessed with Bionicles. Must be a boy thing.

    Ooooh can't wait to see pics of the kids. We took Buddha the Frog out to trick or treat - first at the dreaded mall (because I'm a loser and got the date wrong for the trunk or treat thing) and then over to James' neighborhood. He was toast by the time we got home.

    That sounds like so much fun! I love handing out candy and seeing the costumes too. It's funny about the chili tradition too. In our house Mom gave us hotdogs before we went out trick or treating every year. She never served them any other day so it was a treat!
