A 'Fooky' Fly BY AMANDA ODEN
IN THE
Pines
SPOOKY (or as my 2-year-old who has trouble pronouncing ‘s’ sounds would say, “Fooky”) season is upon us once again, and while my family will happily celebrate almost any holiday, Halloween has always really felt like our time to shine. Our favorite Halloween tradition is coming up with original costumes. I personally enjoy the challenge of piecing together everyone’s getups with items I find at thrift stores or make myself. Occasionally we have to resort to store-bought, but even on those rare occasions, we usually find ways to personalize and embellish the costumes to really make them our own.
