Is the costume store open?

It is like the perpetual “are we there yet” question while driving. Finally the costume store was open today, yippee! We went in and made an outrageously overpriced purchase of one Belle costume for Lela complete with tiara and wand and one rose bud fairy with lighted skirt and lighted want for Piper. I had to tell myself that this is why I have not had a birthday party (we have had parties but not ones that cost money) and bought many of their clothes used. Since I have been marginally thrifty on things up to now I don’t feel so bad spending foolishly on things that they really want. Lela was going to be Belle if it killed her. It is so funny because she has seen that movie one time and it was forever ago, Piper is still afraid of all Disney movies so we don’t watch them. Anyhoo, they are very happy with their costumes and I suppose I will be hearing “is it Halloween yet” for the next 50+ days.
