Random - Halloween Event & Fall
Yesterday was the Halloween party for our English School. It's a bit early, but we hold it on the Sunday before Halloween every year since it's the only day we don't have regular classes.
Turn out was a bit lower than usual, but we had a smaller room reserved so it was still pretty crowded. One of the new teachers came and helped out. It went ok, but not as great as I liked. The kids did some beanbag throw, popcorn stuffing, apple bobbing, monster-partner finding game etc. Afterwards, I took Audrey and 18 other kids trick-or-treating - we just go around to the houses of the participants so it is not like the traditional trick-or-treating in the States or Canada. We went around to 5 of the homes and they got candy from the rest as well. So Audrey has a whole bag of candy which I hope will last at least 3 days :P
That was a loooong walk that took about an hour, and Audrey and I were tired out by the time we finished. Hubby and Julian - who had been an awesome helper for the party and cleanup afterwards- went to buy some Kentucky chicken, I ordered some (Japanese) Dominos pizza and we had a very nice dinner. The wine did me in. It was a good thing we had made today a holiday.
So, today, after taking it easy all morning, hubby and I went out for a walk and found a bit of fall.
Anyway, here are some pictures♡

A long line of moms, dads and kids going trick or treating.
