Más Halloween

This year’s Halloween was full of activities, events and parties!

As you can see Adrian wore the same Spiderman costume from last year, but he also got a Ninja Turtle costume, that’s his latest hero, so he wore both on the different events.

I have come to love this holiday more and more after living here and after getting married cause Derek is a big fan of Halloween. We used to put a lot more time into our costumes before we had kids! So this time I knew I wanted to do something a little bit more than just the with hat, so I got some makeup and a wig, 2 things I love about dressing up. I looked up some ideas in the internet for my makeup and did something funky, if you ask who am I? Well, maybe a relative of the Adam’s family? I don’t know, some zombie with funky makeup! What I like is that my hair color and shape is really different.

Now, the cool thing is that my sis is also starting to get into Halloween because of us and she said she would find a costume and do makeup, she got inspired by this artist (Silvia Ji), isn’t so pretty? We are no professionals but for a first time at something like this it turned up cool and it was really fun! I should start planning for next year!

Derek was very happy with his Wolfman costume, he was even stopped by people for pictures! We had fun with that costume, I was afraid that Adrian would be scared but he is not so scared anymore, he allows it but after a while he tell us to please take it off! When we got back from trick or treating he kept saying: Mami, please take that (my makeup) off now!

We had fun painting ourselves / Nos divertimos mucho pintándonos

We went to the annual Halloween party of the mom’s group I’m at (See the past 2 here and here)  BUT it was almost night time and I wasn’t able to take many pictures,  plus I was so busy with Maya, the camera, chatting, it was not as easy  as the other years! The pictures I like the most are the food table pictures. Aren’t all those plates fun and appealing?

We stopped by Rossy’s daycare were she had a little celebration with goody bags, parade and treats for the kids. Plus he had plenty of celebrations at Preschool and at the new daycare. We even got to go trick or treating one night in the city to a cool block of little stores where they open it up for all kids.

Now where is all that candy you ask? Well, part of it I ate already (the ones I like the most) and the other is still there, Adrian hasn’t asked for it, I think he will forget about it if we don’t remind him at all.

And lastly I loooove a timeline, so at the bottom of the post you can see Adrian’s 4 Halloweens trick or treating!!

A mi cada vez me gusta más esta época, después de vivir aquí por un tiempo y de haberme casado con Derek porque el es un fanático de Halloween. Antes cuando no estábamos casados y no teníamos hijos le dedicábamos más tiempo a ver de que nos íbamos a disfrazar. Esta vez yo quería disfrazarme mejor, así que me compré una peluca y un poco de maquillaje, son las dos cosas que más me gustan de disfrazarme por cierto. Busqué en la internet para tener algunas ideas de como maquillarme, que ser? Me fascina el look de sombie, con la piel blanca, así que bueno, eso hice, pero quedé como una pariente de la familia Adams no? Lo que más me guste es tener el pelo de un color diferente al mío y de una forma diferente.

Derek estaba muy feliz con su disfraz de hombre lobo, hasta le pidieron en la calle fotos!! Nos diertimos con su disfraz, al principio pensé que Adrian iba a tenerle miedo pero ya no se asusta tanto, está tranquilo pero después de un rato nos dice que no los quitemos. Cuando regresamos de pedir trick or treat me decía: Mami, porfavor te puedes quitar eso (el maquillaje) ya?

También fuimos a nuestra fiesta anual del grupo de mamás (Vean las 2 de los años anteriores aquí y aquí) PERO esta vez la fiesta fué un poco más tarde y estaba oscuro ya, así que no tomé muchas fotos, además tenía las manos llenas, entre la cámara, Maya, la conversadera, ya no estan fácil como los años pasados! Las únicas fotos que me gustaron como quedaron fueron las de la mesa de la comida, me fascinó la decoración. No se ve todo super chévere y rico? -ver foto arriba-

The pumpkins where already rotten cause we made them a week ahead 🙁  Las calabazas ya se estaban pudriendo porque las hicimos una semana antes 🙁
