 Hello viewers! Unfortunately, when you get too old for trick or treating you think, what do I do now? What me and my sisters like to do is get costumes, take some pictures, and watch spooky movies so we can still have a good time on Halloween. This year, I am dressing up as Wednesday from the new TV show on Netflix (called Wednesday) and these are Tiny's costumes! Witch. Sorry, I couldn't actually get her to wear the hat. Kiss Fan  Which outfit would she wear best - the witch hat or the Kiss rock n roll band fan? Come back next week to see Tiny in a skull sweater!  Thanks for viewing, don't miss next week's post "Bat Blues" and the week after that "Black Cat Blues." In these posts, I'll convince you that bats and black cats deserve a lot of love! Syd
