I’m part of #OrangeTuesday campaign that Buy Costumes is doing this Halloween season. As part of that tour they’re going around the country speaking to schools and donating costumes. As I go back to my 7 year old self I see me loving the fact that various video game characters got me out of class and oh-our school gets about 75 free costumes for the students.

This is a sponsored post. All thoughts are our own. We don’t normally do theme costumes as a family. However this is the first year that our oldest has really expressed an interest and his younger brother is following suit. Previously the eldest was lukewarm to dressing up, but loved looking like an animal. It was at a parade last year where he realized that if he dressed up and looked the part, then people will give or in that case, throw more candy his way.
This year we built the family costume around his costume choice at Buy Costumes.

I’m participating in a campaign and this is a paid post. All thoughts are my own and my go-to (lame) costume for years really was the ‘tourist’. Halloween is nigh, it really is. I know you look at the calendar and think that you’ve got all the time in the world. However we both know that September will breeze through and October is a blur, suddenly it’s Halloween and you’re using that ‘tourist’ costume that wasn’t funny the first time your wore it. Buy Costumes kicks off its second annual Orange Season on Tuesday, September 2. Orange Tuesday runs through November 4 and features the Orange List, top costumes, party themes and treats – and a one day, Black Fridayesque sale with itemspecific “Orange Busters” and sitewide savings of 25 percent off everything Halloween.
