Halloween

A few weeks before Halloween, I decided that I wasn’t going to decorate and give out candies because I was going trick-or-treating with Emma. Anil got her the cutest little elephant costume... She was Dumbo!!

One week before Halloween we changed our minds, figuring that Emma didn’t care too much for candies, and much preferred just watching other kids and their costumes. I bought 3 pumpkins at the grocery store and Anil did an amazing job carving them! They were the best carved pumpkins I had ever seen. Even the kids were impressed!

Often, Halloween night is the first night we have snow over here. We were lucky that it wasn’t too cold and we didn’t get any snow. I remember trick-or-treating as a kid, wearing my snow suit and watching snowflakes melt in the street. Actually, fall has been very nice this year, still no snow, and colourful leaves are all over the place! Speaking of colourful leaves ... Emma loves them!
