Happy Halloween!

This was our first Halloween where Cooper actually had some idea of what was going on and was very excited about it. He loved his lion costume and "roared" at everyone that said hello to him. It was very cute! The embassy had a Halloween party with trick or treating and decorations at the different office doors. Cooper was very fascinated and a little frightened, just they way he likes to be, by it all. Lucy went with the flow, as usual.
Already digging into the treat bag. Cooper had more sugar than ever before.

They don't actually celebrate Halloween in Fiji, Australia, or New Zealand, but a few of the houses in our friend's neighborhood set up trick or treating. Cooper was the only American kid there. What kid doesn't like to get dressed up and get lollies.
The next morning Cooper said he wanted to do Halloween again. He was very disappointd to hear it only comes once a year and that the next holiday is Thanksgiving.

Hope you had a Happy Halloween!

This photo was actually taken on Halloween eve, but had to have been a little scary for baby Lucy. Isn't she lucky to have a such a nice big brother that shares his animals with her?
