I was thinking since we can't really have a baby shower around the holidays because it's just too hectic that we can have one in oct. But then I was thinking to make it fun for both the female and males we could have a Halloween themed baby shower with costumes optional but encouraged. I think it will be fun and not your typical boring baby shower. What do you think? Too cheesy or a totally fun idea? I love Halloween and always have my family normally has a huge Halloween party every year back in Michigan but I live in Texas with my fiancé and all of his family. I know my family would love it but they sadly won't be able to make it.
