I have a confession: I am completely, totally Halloween t-shirt obsessed — and I LOVE it!
Halloween has always been one of my favorite times of the year. As a kid, I loved everything about it — dressing up, running around the neighborhood, and piling up candy. One of the best parts was going out with our cousins. There were so many of us that we practically became our own little “gang” on Halloween night, and those memories are still some of my favorites.
Fast forward to today, and my love of Halloween has grown into something a little different — my Halloween t-shirt collection. What started out as a fun idea to wear festive shirts for my students during October has turned into a full-blown tradition. Of course, the fact that Halloween gear seems to hit the shelves earlier and earlier each year doesn’t help — I can’t resist adding to my collection!
It began with a simple challenge: post a different Halloween shirt every day of October. Yes, you read that right — I have over 31 shirts! I used to start on October 1st, but since my collection has grown (and because I have a few extras), I sometimes change shirts midday. This year, I couldn’t even wait until October — I started right after we wrapped up our Aerial Achievements summer show.
What I love most about this tradition is that it’s not just about the shirts — it’s about spreading joy, celebrating the season, and sharing a little fun with my students, friends, and family. Seeing their reactions, hearing the laughs, and even inspiring others to pull out their own festive gear makes it even better.
So this October, I invite you to join me in my Halloween t-shirt adventures (or obsession — I’ll own it!). If you’re rocking your own festive looks, tag me on Instagram at either my personal page or our Aerial Achievements IG account. I’d love to see your spooky, silly, or pumpkin-perfect styles!
Here’s to another October full of candy, costumes, and of course… t-shirts!
