Halloween Antics

Last year Isla was intrigued by the few trick-or-treaters that we had. The fact that kids got to dress up and get lollies was just too much for her to handle! So there was no getting away from it this year.

I decided to stage a little halloween themed afternoon tea at home for the kids.

Firstly, Nana turned up as a surprise, dressed as witch to very mixed reactions!

Followed by afternoon tea...



...and various costume choices.

Later we headed off to the Glen Eden Intermediate School Light Party. Run by the church, it's an alternative to traditional halloween celebrations and trick-or-treating which i didn't really feel comfortable with at this stage in their lives.

The kids had a good time, we bumped into a couple of friends and Isla didn't once ask to go trick-or-treating instead - phew! Basically it was like a small school fair and as long as Isla had candy floss she was happy.
First experience of face-painting didn't go so well, the pirate look only got so far as a mo!

Belle - still the firm favorite. 

All in all, a fun time and the kids are exhausted today!
