Happy Halloween!

Our friends Robert & Yumi hosted a Halloween Happy Hour in our apartment building, as a way for all of us new parents to dress up and have fun with our friends before everyone headed out to the bars for a crazy night.

Joe and I wanted to do a theme for our costumes, but were really restricted on what we could do. Mainly because of lack of time to prepare, and the overall difficulty of finding a costume in a foreign country that doesn't really celebrate Halloween. But we managed to find Santa costumes and decided to dress up as a Santa family.

Mr. & Mrs. Clause and our Santa baby :)

Even Grandma participated!

We had a great time at the happy hour party. Good drinks & food, and a fun time with friends. Here are a few other costumes from the party....

Alice in Wonderland & The Mad Hatter

Mario and his lovely bee

Bo Peep and her sheep

Jellyfish & squid

PEACE!

On actual Halloween Day, we attended a birthday party for our friend Morgan who turned 1 year old! Elodie dressed up as a ballerina for the occasion.

Happy 1st birthday Morgan!

Beautiful ballerina :)

Love this picture of her!
