of halloween festivities

Growing up in the Philippines where Halloween was overlooked because of the Christmas season starting as early as September (at least in my time, I believe it's gaining popularity now), it came as a surprise how big it is here in North America. I mean I think I only dressed up once as a kid for my mom's company's Halloween party for kids and once as an adult for my company's. And here, as early as September, Halloween candies are being sold, costume stores and rentals open up, people start planning their costumes meticulously, and invites to parties are being sent out. I wasn't really a fan of dressing up but being with a man who looks forward to it and whose principle is to not half-ass his costumes, I kind of got into it. And I've started to understand the fun of it all.

 

Oh and Nick carved a pumpkin for the first time. Maybe I'll join him next year. And great job for a first-timer! ☺

Hope your Halloween was a blast!

Keep livin' happy! ☺
