Halloween 2014

So this year we had a witch, a butterfly and Batman again (his costume still fit...whoohoo!!). I wasn't too sure about what to expect with Halloween here. If there would be any candy, costumes, decorations, trick-or-treating? Well, KL had it all!! It was definitely different than our Halloweens in the states with going door to door to trick-or-treat, but the kids all had a great time and got plenty of candy!
Ella and Jake got to wear their Halloween costumes to school on Halloween morning and had a little party in the ECE hallway. ECE includes Kinder and younger. Each teacher had an activity in their classroom and the kids had an hour to go from classroom to classroom making crafts, feeling sensory boxes, dancing and enjoying Halloween snacks. Lily was very jealous:) I got to walk Jake and 2 of his little friends around. All the kids really had a great time!



All of Jake's little class in their costumes:)



Halloween night the school PA puts on a huge Halloween Carnival for all the elementary families. I actually was on the committee which was a lot of fun! The whole time that we were planning though, I really never understood how big it actually was until the night of. There were SO many kids!!! And the majority of the adults dressed up too!! There was a DJ with dancing, lots of games and of course a trick-or-treating path. The lady in charge of decorations did an awesome job! I was truly amazed! It almost felt like Halloween back in New Orleans:) Brent was in charge of the kids for most of the night since I was helping out, but I got to catch up and play with them too!











A super sweet and talented mom organized a flash mob dance that Lily participated in and absolutely loved!! It was very cute and amazing how much they learned so quickly!

The next night, the condo did a little Halloween candy hunt. There were quite a few kids there too! The grown-ups kinda just thru candy all around ground floor by the pools and park and the kids ran for it! The kids had a blast! And I got an Almond Joy...it was a good night:)
