Great Halloween! As you can see, Erin was an angel and Grant was "Count Spatula" (a character of his own creation), I wore my deviled egg costume. These photos were taken in front of our house. We did trick-or-treating on another Compound, where most of the families are American. These people went all out for Halloween - fantastic decorations, music, food, etc;! Grant toured the compound with a couple of his friends, I went with Erin. I really lucked out at the first house we went to, treats for kids and adults (candy and beer! yes, they were handing out bottles of Heiniken! Since we don't get much beer in this Islamic country this was a great "treat.") I felt a little silly walking the streets dressed as a deviled egg drinking a beer but had a wonderful time.
I organized the Halloween Party for Erin's class yesterday (part of my "Room Mother" duties). Had great participation from the other parents - party went very well. Next on the agenda is a "Winter Party" before the holiday break. Oh, but before that a friend and I are organizing a Thanksgiving Feast for interested parties on our Compound. We have the clubhouse reserved, and poor Andy (still in the US) has been given the task of picking up the proper napkins and decorations.
Now - back to unpacking (just a few boxes left) and organzing the house.
Happy Halloween!
