HaPPy HaLLoWeeN!!!It's surely obvious what I will be thankful for today! I love holidays. I like to send out holiday cards. I love decorating. I enjoy the traditional holiday foods and treats. Halloween is no different.
I got my Halloween "costume" for $10 on clearance. It's that bright orange shirt.
I asked my German neighbor earlier this week if we should expect trick-or-treaters here in Germany. She told me that it is not custom in most of Germany, but around here, where there are so many Americans, it is more common. She said they don't really come in our neighborhood. Well, I was a little put out by that. I love to hand out candy. I love to see the kids in costumes.
So, I called my friend, April, who has two children. I asked her if I could see her little munchkins in their costumes. She obliged and drove to our house this evening on their way to base for trick-or-treating. I love the costumes! I love the sweet little baby in his monkey outfit and his brother as a ninja.I bought a small bag of Snickers just in case anyone came by. Eureka! The first pair of German children came by proclaiming their desire for sweets in German. The evening has been filled with more German kids ringing the bell and saying, "Süßes oder Saures." I love it!
Today I'm thankful for Halloween and the fun it brings (and the socks I get to wear!).
