Pumpkin Time!






The Halloween party at the clubhouse was nice, we all had a good time. Don and the kids wore their costumes and we decorated the 2 pumpkins for the kids contest. Titi took a lot of time deciding how to decorate her pumpkin but she finally chose a pirate costume. I helped her glue it on the pumpkin and it looked great. Carlos chose a mummy. It was a hit too. The food was good, they had a magic show for the kids, a bounce house and a train ride. They gave prizes to all the kids that decorated their pumpkins and Carlos and Titi were happy when they got theirs.




It is pumpkin time. On Friday we went to a pumpkin patch with Nico, Carlos and Titi's friend from Guatemala. They kids had a good time and we chose two pumpkins to decorate for Saturday's Halloween party in our development.

Hi Carmen
A pity that we don't know that tradition in the Netherlands.
Well, the kids were very creative! and Don's looks makes me think of the popular show here Prisonbreak.

Hi Henny and Gosia!

Halloween gets bigger and bigger every year in the USA. The kids get way too much candy. We are trying to convince Carlos and Titi to trade their candy for a toy or books. In the Netherlands the kids wear costumes during Carnival, right?
