I am sure many of you are wondering if anyone celebrates Halloween over here on the other side of the world. The answer is.... If you want to, you can find ways! This country is made up of expats from all over the world and at least all the ones from the USA and most of Europe like to celebrate Halloween. It isn't anything like what happens in Tioga, but our compound is doing trick or treating tonight so the kids are excited. I was able to find a pumpkin to carve, but it set us back $60! We only bought one and then had to deal with the arguing over who gets to draw the face on. I will post more pics tonight!
On a side note, this has been a week of vacation from school and most of the kids Chase and Natalie like to play with are out of town. We have met another family from Holland who have twin 7 year old boys. Both Chase and Natalie are loving playing with them. I think both the boys have a crush on Natalie. They are wearing string ankle wraps that she made them!
Oh my gosh....$60.00 for a pumpkin! Guess they had to ship it from the US or something!! That's crazy. What little boy WOULDN'T have a crush on Natalie! Glad they made some new friends.
