It's almost Trick-or-Treat time. This year, my daughter has decided to be a thumb. Yes, a full-body thumb. It is pretty cool. She took a foam pad for a twin bed and spray painted it after she formed it into thumb shape. She is putting the thumb nail and print on it tonight. I can't wait to see the finished product!
Hope you all have a fun, ghoulish holiday!
