Halloween

Yes. We did celebrate Halloween over here!
Hey, I'm only a month late...
We've been pretty lucky in our overseas assignments as far as Halloween is concerned - Monterrey celebrates Halloween just as we do in the States; we went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood and had school parties, etc. The international school here also had a fun Halloween Festival (costume parade, crafts, trick-or-treating) for families on Friday night that the kids really loved. Also, so many Americans live in my neighborhood that we had trick-or-treating around the circle and a party in the cul-de-sac on (much debated) Thursday. It's fun to be a kid! The kids loved the costumes their awesome Aunt Amy made for them :)

Ummm... Okay, I'll admit it. We carved this AFTER Halloween!
