trick or treat?

I couldn't help but write a post about Halloween or more like the lack there of in Australia. I've never been one of those people who decks my house out for halloween or gets super excited about dressing up but i'm not going to lie, I did kind of miss all the excitement this year. Actually, to be honest I missed all the halloween excitement from school. The last few years with my kiddos we would make cute bats out of egg cartons, learn halloween poems, carve a pumpkin together...well, Ms. Wenner did the pumpkin carving, but you get the idea :)

Halloween here is not a big deal, what so ever. There are hardily any halloween decorations up at the shops, no candy corn and a pumpkin will cost you about $20. I was over at Mel and Dan's house Sunday night and I think we had maybe 4 groups of trick or treaters, maybe 15 kids total. We did however make a quick appearance at a halloween party Saturday night, Elisha and I dressed up as a lady bug and a bumble bee.
