šťastný Halloween!

Being overseas in a very populated expat community helps us feel more at home. We still get to celebrate our favorite holidays... even FIVE times. :)


Haley, the budding photographer, took this pic of the two ever scary avid BYU fans.
ooooo Scary! (We even booed everyone we saw.)

Our widdle punkin.
Every one of our kids have worn this hand-me-down costume from my aunt JaNae.

Haley wore this when she was (cough cough) TWO!!
Jen Harper made it for her and she STILL loves it.

Maleia wanted to be a Muskateer.
Dumb Amazon didn't say that the costume didn't come with the hat and sword as in the picture.
Maleia responds, "Where are the accessories?" Such a girl.
We hoped they will come on the real trick or treat night. . .

Dylan wanted to be Bumblebee the Transformer since his birthday when he got this costume. His goal was to wear this costume every day. He's far from that goal, but he runs around asking everyone if he is spooky in this costume.


So on trick or treat night, our little Scaredy Cat got to come out and get some candy. He wanted to open each piece of candy as we went along. So we did. :) He was good at sharing with his mom.

THEY CAME!!!!
Just in time. We actually received the hat and sword moments before taking this picture. This is genuine glee oozing from this little Muskateer. And the sword lasted 5 minutes until I had to take it away because she whacked her brother in the eyeball. The hat lasted 20 minutes because Maleia said it "was bugging the top of my head." Isn't that what a hat is for?

Wonder Woman to the rescue!
This was the first Halloween when she wanted to stay out longer.

The Chapman Trick or Treat team.

I know any baby in a costume is adorable, but wook at dat widdle bum!
It is all that more adorable now that he can crawl!!

Here are our pumpkins and homemade decorations leading to our new home.
Although I am not a HUGE fan of Halloween, it is fun to dress silly and get free candy. I also liked meeting my neighbors, though I didn't recognize most of them.

Oh Well! Happy Halloween!!

  2. Glad you blogged!!! Logan is looking so big, and I think, more and more like Maleia. Hailey all of the sudden looks older. Miss you guys and your cuties!
