Happy Halloween!

What a fun Halloween we had this year! Last night (the night before Halloween), the kids and I went to a carnival they had on base with face painting, crafts, games, etc. They did some Trick-or-Treating on base as well, which was a MAD HOUSE! About 300 kids and 30 houses. My kids had to stand on line at each house!But today, on Halloween, the weather was just perfect. A nice night with a mostly full moon. We went Trick-or-Treating around our village with some of our local friends, and had a ball. There was just something so sweet about walking around our little English village and talking with our neighbors. We went back to two friends' houses for mulled wine and conversation, while the kids let loose on their candy bags. So much fun for all.Here are a few pictures from our Halloween. Tim was Darth Vader, Maddie was Hannah Montana (we don't watch the show, but she wanted to be a rock star with pink hair- so Hannah Montana seemed like a good fit), and Collin was my little cheeky monkey! (Don't you just love his curly tail and banana?)Here's a short clip of Collin doing a monkey dance (with our neighbor's robot toy)!
