Family Night-Halloween Weekend part 1

For November leading up to Thanksgiving, I'm going to have every single one of my posts about gratitute and Thanksgiving..Seoul-mama doesn't skip over Thanksgiving like they do in retail! I'm calling it my month of 'Cultivating an Attitude of Gratitude' BUT before we kick that off, I must share with you our fun Halloween weekend. Now, ok...in our house we do not glorify scary,gory things around this holiday. But my kids do love to dress up! They always have so we stick to fun costumes and creepy crawlies (spiders and the like). So that is my disclaimer right up front.
Leading up to the big candy night, Seoul-girl and Seoul-boy had plenty of opportunities to unleash their inner "fill-in-the-blank". Here's a little bit of what I saw passing through my kitchen this week...

We started out with Dress As Your favorite Bible character for school. I dropped off a lovely, demure Angel of the Lord and a short, spunky Jesus that day in carpool.

Then we had costume week at ballet class. Seoul-girl takes ballet on multiple days so she wore her regular costume on one day and decided to be a fairy on the other.


Somewhere along the line, Seoul-daddy got in on the action. His company held a costume contest at the end of the week and can you guess which one he is? (*hint, think inner-caveman)


But Seoul-daddy could not let go of our annual tradition. Did you know we have an Elvis sighting each year in our parts?? It's true! I give you Fat Elvis!


And finally, I introduce to you two of the cutest animals you'll ever come across. Seoul-cheetah and Seoul-bat!


BOO to you! stay tuned for more of our spooky fun..
