On the Wednesday before Halloween we carved pumpkins, coz when in America do as Americans do obviously. It's definitely not my forte but we got to roast pumpkin seeds so who's the real winner here? (clue: me, not the pumpkin.) Fun fact: the pumpkins Americans carve aren't regular old eating pumpkins. Fascinating.

The week of Halloween we went through about a million different costume options with Lulu, We finally decided that we would go as biker chicks until about 5.30pm just before we were about to leave to go Trick or Treating she decided that she actually wanted to go as a fairy. Cue; making homemade fairy wings from leftover moving boxes and tin foil.
The apartment complex we live in has an annual Halloween pool party which we went to and then we headed over to the kids dad's neighbourhood with Lulu and four kids in tow where we went trick or treating. The street was FULL of families and most houses were decorated. A few people had set up their garages with scary things to walk through before you could get your lollies. I screamed on multiple occasions.
