“It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!”

It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

I love Halloween!  It’s a holiday for everyone, ages 2 to 92.  There are so many fun things to do from going out to haunted houses and pumpkin patches to staying home and watching all the great Halloween shows on television.  It’s a great time to get together with you family and friends, make some popcorn and enjoy the shows!

One of our all time favorite Halloween shows is by far, “It’s the great pumpkin, Charlie Brown“.  It’s a tradition in our family that goes way back to when I was young.  I hope my children watch it with their kids when they grow up and have their own families.  I know Charlie Brown will still be around even then!

It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

Did you know that the Charlie Brown Halloween show has been on the air since October 1966?  It’s been on every year since then during the month of October.  That’s got to tell you something!  The show is adorable!  Who can resist Linus and his hope to see The Great Pumpkin? 

All the Peanuts characters are wonderful; Charlie Brown, Linus, Sally, Lucy, Peppermint Patty, Pig Pen, Marcie, Schroeder and of course Snoopy and Woodstock.  Charles Schulz really knew what he was doing when he invented all these great characters.

HalloweenExpress.com now has a whole line of Peanuts costumes that will make a great theme if you’re looking for group costumes or even if you’re going on your own.  Looking for a Charlie Brown costume, then look no further!  Go as the whole Peanuts gang for Halloween this year!

A Family That “Shrek’s” Together, Stays Together!

Shrek Costumes

Shrek Costumes

Ever since May 2001, the lovable ogre Shrek has become a household name.  Today, with three more movies added to the franchise, Shrek and his friends are more popular than ever!

All the movies are hilarious!  I can’t say enough good things about them.  It’s such a great animated film that you can take the whole family to.  My kids loved it and I think my husband and I were laughing even harder than they were. 

For the past eight years, Halloween costumes for the Shrek characters fly off the shelves during the holiday and this year will be no different.  There’s so many great characters to choose from when it comes to picking out your Halloween costume; Princess Fiona, Donkey, Puss in Boots and the Three Blind Mice are so much fun to dress up as.  

Since the latest movie in the series was just released a couple months ago called “Shrek Forever After“, Shrek and his friends are back on the scene!   This Halloween make it a family night by everyone dressing as a character from the movie!  Dad can be Shrek, mom can be Princess Fiona and have the kids dress up as Donkey, Puss in Boots or even the Gingerbread Man.  The possibilities are endless and fun!

Give Your Graduate a Hawaiian Luau Party!

Big Kahuna Adult Costume

It’s that time of year again when parents everywhere are planning graduation parties for their high school or college graduate!

The easiet way to plan a graduation party is to go with a specific theme in mind. The most popular is the Hawaiian Luau theme. In Hawaii, a luau is a gathering of family and friends to enjoy good food, good company, and good times; sounds like the perfect graduation party to me! There are so many tropical decorations to choose from that you should have no problem making your guests feel like they are truly partying in the tropics. Have the party goers where Hawaiian shirts and grass hula skirts.  As they arrive place a flowered lei around their neck. 

Big Kahuna Adult CostumeOf course no Hawaiian Luau party would be complete without tiki lights, inflatable palm trees and the sounds of tropical Island music playing.  Games involving hula hoops are always fun and don’t forget the infamous “how low can you go” limbo contest.  For food, don’t forget the roasted pig!

And if you have a boy that’s graduating from high school or college, have him greet the party-goers in full regalia dressed as the Big Kahuna!  Everyone will love it and his party will be one to remember!

More Great Halloween Costumes!

Praying Mantis Costume

This Halloween was crazy with costumes!  Adults costumes ranged from humor to horror – one end of the spectrum to the other.  Teens, tweens and kids wore everything from the latest big screen blockbusters to fairytale princesses.  All the costumes that graced my front porch were wonderful.  It’s so much fun seeing how creative and bold some children can be when it comes to costumes. 

Here are some more great costumes to be seen on Halloween night!

What A Great Year For Costumes!

Pasta Costume

Well we made it through another year of this holiday of madness they call Halloween!  Costumes, candy, decorations, pumpkins and parties; what a wild ride! 

My husband had a great time walking the kids around the neighborhood trick-or-treating while I had so much fun giving out candy at our house and getting to see some crazy and inventive costumes!  I hope all of you had a great Halloween this year.  However, this is not goodbye because Halloween isn’t the only time of year when costumes are needed.  How can we have Thanksgiving without Pilgrims, Christmas without Santa, New Years Eve without party supplies, etc…  You get the idea!  HalloweenExpress.com will be here for all your costumes and decorating needs ALL YEAR LONG!!!
