Trick-or-treat in Japan







So Halloween is seen as completely unbelievable to the Japanese children. The fact that once a year you can dress up in a silly costume, go door to door, say a silly phrase, and then get a piece of candy is awesome! Sydney and Ethan shared that same awe this year. They are finally old enough to get into the whole idea of candy, candy and more candy. Syd dressed up like a little ballerina, and Ethan was a lion. He even would give a good lion "roar" if you asked him to. It was supper cute. We also decided to make a pumpkin with the kids this year. All growing up we'd carve our pumpkins a couple weeks before Halloween. so I decided about a week before would be fine. After two days our pumpkin looked like this. I forgot it's just much more humid in japan.
