HaPpY HaLLoWeEn!!

We had a great Halloween this year. We all got into the spirit of it and dressed up. I had so much fun dressing up that I am going to dress up every year from now on. Austin and Kaity were Pirates. Arrr! Allie was a Mermaid. Her costume was a little immodest but this is the only year that we will probably be in a place where it is warm enough to be a mermaid not wearing a coat. I though she looked super cute. I was a gypsy. Thank goodness my neighbour Rita had a ton of stuff to really make my costume.

We went trick or treating at this place called Grand Harbour (shopping plaza). One of the radio stations on the island sponsors it each year.It is a safe place to trick-or-treat and it is awesome because they not only give you a full size candy bar at each shop but a hand full of candy to go along with it. Seriously, our kids filled their bags going to about 10 shops. This is a picture of us before the "looting" happened.
We found an abandoned ship that Austin and the kids commandeered and sailed to Tortuga on. Hahaha.

Here is the fierce first mate.

Our beautiful mermaid

After the trick or treating we went over to another place called Caymana Bay. They had it all decorated and spooky. There was a band there playing Halloween songs and different places the kids could do fun activities.

Me and my hot pirate.

The girls got to paint little pumpkins, then we had to carry them around with us the rest of the night while they dried. So much fun :s
We found the great pumpkin Charlie Brown!!
They had this thing set up that was like a mad scientist lab and the kids could put their had in these little holes and feel vampires hearts, mummy skin, and Werewolf hair etc.

There was also this display that had a skeleton in it named Charlie. The ladies in the back were telling the kids to reach in and touch Charlie and that he is alive and not to take any of his stuff or he will wake up and get them. Kaity was so fascinated with this. She kept asking questions and we could not get her to leave.After asking all her questions she finally told the lady "you said Charlie is alive, but he's not, he's dead because he is not moving ". The lady tried to explain why he is not moving but Kaity was not hearing it, and she had reasons to fire back with why Charlie was dead. This other lady looked at me and said " she is really smart, she is putting a lot of though into this". I was laughing so hard at the look on her face the whole time she was standing there.

After that we went and got a pizza because we didn't eat dinner before trick or treating. I am such a bad mom letting my kids have candy before dinner :)
