Halloween here is a little different than in the US. It is mostly blood and guts, monsters and zombies... Anyway anywhere you go on Halloween you see the scariest people dressed up all bloody and stuff. It's not just the adults, little kids as young as Gabby are dressed up in terrifying costumes. What happened to savoring childhood? Anyway so trick-or-treating in our building was actually on the 25th and we were flying over the pacific ocean on our way back so we missed it. However our ward had a halloween party that we were able to attend. They had a games, a costume contes (Jaxton won his division) and a trunk-or-treat.
Jaxton as "Dash". He was perfect for this.:)

Gabby as "Cinderella". I had the cutest witch costume for here, but she absolutely refused to put it on. She kept saying, "pincess mommy, be a pincess". So needless to say she wore her ballerina princess dress-up costume that is a little too big.
Gabby and soem twin girls that are in our ward. They love her and are always telling me she looks like a "baby doll" or a "barbie doll".
Ok, so talk about disappointment to a kid to trick or treat here. They got some of the wierdest things. Here are a few of the "treats". If you can call them that.
Mentos are like the smarties of the Philippines.
Jello in atube..who could ask for more. YIKES!
A KFC brownie, now that is a little scary.
Luckily Jaxton and Gabby aren't old enough to really know what they are missing. And they love the Jello sticks. Gross if you ask me, but at least they were happy, right?

Those pictures on the side are cute! I forgot that you have photo experience. I got them done at the Baby Expo at the South Towne Expo center. We waited in line FOREVER because the sitting was free and the photo was only 10 bucks. But of course I spent a ton and bought the CD so I could make my own prints.
I've been wondering what your halloween was like in the Phillipines. Thanks for posting. Looks like your kids had fun. Jello in a tube...yummm!
