Thirteen years ago when Ben and I got married the date was supposed to be in Sept but darn that coup in Fiji where we planned on booking our wedding put a halt to that. So we moved the date to Oct 31st in the Cook Islands. Now at that time Halloween really wasn't very big here in Australia but I thought, just in case, we'd better make it Nov 1st. So that's our anniversary date, the day after Halloween! I am grateful we decided to move the date "just in case"! Halloween has really picked up in popularity here.
So for our anniversary Uncle Andrew and Auntie Nic babysat and Ben and I went out to a movie "Gravity". It was awesome to get a night out on our own, doesn't happen often. Thanks guys! Ben brought home a "bird of paradise" pennant from Papa New Guinea where he worked for a couple days. I was very touched and I gave him the book "Are you smart enough to work at Google?"

We had our very first neighbourhood Halloween this year. In years past the boys didn't really want to get dressed up and not too keen to go trick or treating. But this year Lochy's friend invited us to their neighbourhood Halloween celebrations.

| The local haunted house everyone goes to! The boys loved it. They certainly put a lot of imagination into it. |
By the end of the night everyone was shattered. But that didn't stop a compete inventory of what treats the boys got in their buckets.
