With a new school year beginning so is the headache for many parents that go along with it - spending money.  Our children need new school supplies, school books and of course, all new school clothes.  What is it with kids today, that for some unknown reason those jeans they wore all summer long are now not cool enough to wear at the beginning of the new school year.  Is it some unwritten teen and tween rule that you have to have a new wardrobe to start school?  And it’s not just a new pair of jeans or a couple new shirts, it’s jeans, shorts, skirts, shirts, backpack and shoes.  When I was young my “new” school wardrobe consisted of whatever my older sister didn’t wear anymore and it was handed down to me!

At HalloweenExpress.com they understand that and have a great selection of “Super Saver” discounted costumes, decorations and accessories at an unbelievable low cost.    You can pick from historical couple costumes such as Mark Antony and Cleopatra;

         

or more humorous couple costumes such as Doctor and Nurse Get Well;

             

or maybe you would prefer a more popular couple costume such as a Pirate and Buccaneer Beauty.

            

No matter what you decide whether it’s a couple costume theme or individual you’ll find it in our “Super Saver” section on the home page.  Everyone loves to have fun and save money and you can do both this Halloween at HalloweenExpress.com!  But hurry, at these prices the costumes won’t last long!

September is Football!

The long summer days are coming to an end, the kids are back in school and autumn is in the air.  That can only mean one thing – Halloween is coming!  We have a bunch of big Oak trees in our backyard and I can’t believe that the leaves are starting to change color and beginning to fall already.  The official first day of fall isn’t until September 22nd, so it seems a little early yet, but since autumn is my favorite time of year I’m not complaining.  I love when the weather cools down, the leaves change beautiful shades of orange and yellow and the start of one of my other favorite things – football season!  Go Bengals!

Labor Day weekend is upon us and I consider that the unofficial ending of summer – the last big bang!  Since a lot of people are off work on Monday, Sunday is a big day of picnics, parades, family get togethers and neighborhood party’s.  The weather here this weekend is supposed to be beautiful in the upper 80′s so I’ll be having my family and friends over for a little swimming, a little barbeque and a lot of fun! 

Did you know that Labor Day is always the first Monday in September and is created from the labor movement and dedicated to the achievements of American workers?  It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the prosperity and well-being of our country.  Therefore, it is appropriate that the nation give recognition on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation’s strength, freedom and leadership – the American worker -white collar, blue collar or no collar, every worker should get a pat on the back!

Labor Day also kicks off my official count down to Halloween - 60 days and counting!  Now is as good of a time as any to not just think about what you want to be for Halloween, but get out there and start ordering.  HalloweenExpress.com sends out some discount coupons to everyone on their email list.  If you haven’t signed up yet click here: “sign up now” or go to our home page, scroll down and click on the orange “sign up now” icon at the bottom left hand side of the page. 

If you’re like me and love football check out some of our great football costumes for men, women and children.  There’s something for everyone!  

Happy Labor Day!!

Wow I can’t believe we are into the month of August already!  Once again time is flying by and before you know it we’ll be into September then into one of my favorite months, October – which we all know leads us straight to Halloween!  And speaking of Halloween have you been looking around for your costume by chance?  At Halloween Express we are a one stop shop where you can get anything and everything related to the Halloween holiday with the touch of a button.  It’s that easy!

 Because we have one of the largest selections of Halloween costumes anywhere it can be a little overwhelming trying to see everything in order to make your selection so we’ve made it a little easier for you.  My favorite is the ”family costume idea” page – what a great idea!  Since our children are little my husband and I take turns walking around the neighborhood with them as they trick-or-treat.  One goes with the kids and the other stays at home and gives out the candy.   We always switch off half way through so that we both get to be out with the kids.  The “family costume” page is filled with great ideas for parents with children to all dress with the same costume theme.

Some of my favorite ”family costume ideas ” are:

All these themed family costumes are really amazing when everyone has on something from the “theme” you decide to go with.  It doesn’t have to be one of the themes we show, you can make one up on your own using some of our other great costume ideas.  Just have fun with whatever theme you decide to go with.   If your kids see you having a great time out on Halloween night, they will too!

Soccer Mom to Homerun Hottie With One Costume!

OK ladies this one’s for you!  I know the sports world is dominated by the men (or so they think), but this Halloween I think it’s time we showed them that we’ve got what it takes to take sports costumes to an all new level!

Growing up with older brothers I somehow always managed to end up being a baseball or football player for Halloween.  Back then I just threw on my brothers uniform, put a little black junk under my eyes and away I went.  Today it’s a whole new ballgame – no pun intended!  Not only can you dress up as a baseball or football player but also as a race car driver and even a referee.  However, the fun part is that every costume is geared toward making woman look and feel sexy even while wearing your average baseball uniform (well maybe not your “average” uniform)!

With costume names like these they’re bound to get attention!  So go on ladies, shake things up a bit this Halloween and have some fun!  Believe me the guys will never look at sports the same again!

It Only Takes a Costume To Become a Superhero!

My son Caden turned nine last Wednesday so we had a big birthday party for him at our house on Saturday.  I let Cade pick out the theme for his party and he decided on “Superheroes”.  With the Batman movie The Dark Knight being released Friday he already knew that’s exactly who he wanted to be.  So Friday night my husband and I took him to see the movie (with everybody else in the free world).  It was packed but honestly it was really cool because everybody in the theater was cheering on Batman so Cade really got into it.  By the way, the movie was (as Cade would say) AWESOME!  I was looking forward to it because I liked Batman Returns, but I had no idea it would be as good as it was.  In my blog earlier that day I said that a lot of reviews had Heath Ledger earning an oscar for his role as Joker and now that I’ve seen the movie, I wholeheartedly agree with it!  He was amazing.  You would have never guessed it was Heath Ledger playing the part.  Nothing in the Joker’s character would have given it away.  Anyway, if you haven’t seen the movie you should!

Back to the party…  Caden made a very handsome Batman (if I do say so myself) and what was so neat was that every one of his friends came as a Superhero of some sort.  Thankfully Caden was the only Batman, but we did have Superman, Spiderman, The Green Flash, Captain America, Zorro, a few of the Power Rangers, The Incredible Hulk plus a couple Ninja Turtles thrown in for good measure.  The kids loved it!  They were on a sugar high all day, running around with masks on and capes flying. 

   

If you need an idea for a theme party for your child’s birthday, then you have to throw a “Superhero” party.  Believe me your child and their friends will have so much fun and it will be a party they won’t soon forget!  Check out our kids Superhero costume page here at Halloween Express and let your kids decide which Superhero they want to be for the day!
