It's not too often that I look forward to the arrival of a new month quite like I've been looking forward to November.

The last two weeks of October have seemed like a never ending Halloween party. We counted this morning and they celebrated Halloween five times with five different costumes!

What a difference a year makes.

Last year we drove across town to a village/town called Humera (south of Pozuelo which is where we live now). There are about 15 houses there that put on a trick-or-treat event. Nothing in our neighborhood. Nothing at the kids' school.

This year there were multiple activities at school. Multiple trick-or-treat nights (on different nights) plus Addi's Halloween birthday party.

On a side note: our house and car got egged last night. Silly Spanish kids.
