Halloween!!
YAY!
First of all, I have to clarify that Halloween isn't a widely celebrated tradition on my country. Quite the contrary. Most of the people (I'm talking about adults here) strongly dislike Halloween for two different reasons. The first group are against it because "it's a foreing celebration that has nothing to do with our culture" (I can't help but wondering if those purists have never eaten a burger from McDonalds, a pizza from Pizza Hut or drank a Coke). Well, I don't really share this view, but I can respect it.
The second group, however, I can't stand: those are the ones that go around trying to convince everybody that Halloween is a satanic celebration. Hence, to allow your children to dress up is another way of worshipping Satan. I'm so sick and tired of these people it's not even funny for me anymore! Just yesterday I got into a little debate with some random girl on facebook that was trying to convince me that Halloween was EVIL because... prepare yourselves... it's one of the three dates marked as a celebration day on the SATANIC BIBLE.
*Facepalm*
Well. So, yeah. Halloween isn't really a widely spread celebration here, but in the last years a strong current of modern and fun loving parents (as me!) are allowing their kids to celebrate, to dress up and to go trick or treating. Two years ago, I dressed Connie as an angel, but she was still too little to go trick or treating. Last year, I choose her costume too: a fairy. But she went to visit my in laws so not trick or treating either.
This year, inspired by one of her favorite songs, Thriller, she decided she wanted to be a zombie. Hahaha!! And so, with the help of some fake blood, old clothes and make up, she went to her first trick or treating ever. And she had a wonderful time!! :D
Specially for my dear friend cassiopeia7, who wanted to see photos... behold zombie!connie!!
(more under the cut, in case you aren't bored out of your mind already).
All kinds of hideous criatures demanding candy at my door! :D
It's her very first Halloween... *sniffles* They grow up so fast...
This was an unthinkable view five years ago.
Yes. That's me, in case you were wondering. ^_^
Zombie!connie trying to murder her dad, probably to eat his brain later. She's most certainly part of an evil cult. XD
