Happy Halloween

The Chinese do not really celebrate Halloween. But we do! This year we went to the international school to a Halloween party/ Fall festival. It was fun. It was strange to hear so much English in one place. Hallie hung out with her friend Bliss and met another friend. Liam played guns with a couple of boys. Eryn ran after them some.

Hallie dressed as Hannah Montana.




Eryn was a cow girl. She would tell me that she was not wearing a cowboy hat, it was a cowgirl hat!


Liam was batman.



Jon dressed up too!

I did not really mean to be a party pooper, but I did not know that Jon was going to dress up and I did not have a chance to get a costume together. Maybe next year.

On Halloween night we ate at Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut usually decorates for Halloween and the servers wear "costumes". It has become our tradition to eat there. When we got home and the kids were getting into their pj's, there was a knock at the door. We actually had Trick or treaters! Most were wearing costumes. Margaret's daughter, Elaine's son and some of their friends came. They invited Hallie to go out with them. She threw on most of her costume and Jon went out with them. She actually got some candy! I think I will be better prepared next year. I gave out little spider and bat rings that we had left-over. The kids really, really liked them. Maybe next year, I can prepare goodie bags. Everyone had a good time, and that is what counts!
