We had a great time trick or treating this year. The day started out looking pretty awful with huge snowflakes and then rain but it let up in the late afternoon so we were able to get out. Bryn had fun even though we only went to a few houses. I'm not sure if it was the scary "skellyun" that made her want to go home or the fact she had chips and cheezies and chocolate in her bag (it doesn't get much better than that), but she was happy to stop after just 5 places.
Bryn and her pumpkin art.
We went wandering around the mall in the afternoon so Bryn could wear her Snow White costume. She really wanted to be a witch for Halloween but I'd bought this costume weeks ago so rather than let it go to waste we had a costume change.
OK! I'll smile but only because you said I could have a treat!
This was the official trick or treating costume.
She loved her witch hair.
Our good friends and travel mates Kathleen, Pat and Maeve are leaving in a few days for China to meet their beautiful daughter Elspeth. We're so incredibly happy for them and send them all much love. Have a safe journey, K,P&M and give Elspeth a huge hug from all of us. We're thrilled to have another Jiangxi girl in our Xinyu family!

Well, oh my. First of all I have to say that the swamp creature part nearly did me in!!!! Until I listen to Bryn I don't realize how much better her speech is than Ava's, so clear and articulated, I'd better step up that speech practice! OH dear:) The pics are beautiful. Keep bugging me and I'll send you the ones Monica took of our girls, Claire was Belle and AVa was Snow White. It does suit them doesn't it? I was tempted to borrow it for her school party but I forgot and in the end she was sick and didn't go, so there you have it. Thanks thanks thanks for the pics. Just had to bug you a bit today!!
I'm trying to sneak in some computer time with Claire nearby so I haven't looked at the video yet - I don't want to disturb her and give up my few moments of peace! But I'll look soon.
Wonderful Halloween pics! Bryn is a stunning Snow White. She posed wonderfully for these, I must say! And wow, what a great witch costume! How fun is that to have two costumes?!
Okay, just saw the video! She is so funny! (And like Beth said, such a clear speaker.) I love to hear the creative things she says.
Wow, that is a spectacular Snow White costume! It really suits her. She also makes a dazzling witch. I love her look from head to toe. She's also the only witch that doesn't scare Caia!
I'm impressed at the way you got her to look at the camera for photos! You'll have to stock up on Halloween candy for bribes all year.
