Halloween came and went but oh boy we had 4 days of it and we had a ball!!

Let’s start with Friday, Oct. 28th, you had a Halloween party at the day care, they rented the hall so all the children and parents could stay and have fun with the children. On Saturday, we went to Pointe Claire as there was a hunted house for children to go and play in, it was fun, you got your face painted, a crocodile on your cheek and you even got a balloon shaped as an elephant, so you were in your glories. After that we all went to the park as it was such a beautiful day. On Sunday, we went to a party with Katerine and Jacqueline, another hall. This was a private party that had: a magician, a DJ, a person who came with lizards, spiders and other little creepy crawlers, there was also: face painting (which you asked to be an elephant), a bouncy toy, finger nail painting and tattoos but you did not want a tattoo but your finger nails to be painted blue, so, we did, (you had blue nail polish for a good week. The food was great too, you had cotton candy, popcorn, pizza, cheese and lots and lots of water and juice as you were just having a blast with Katerine! I had a blast just watching you! Before the party finished, the entire Mascot came out to greet the children, there was Snow White, Ariel, Dora, Mini, Whinny the Poo, Mickey and so much more. What a day it was! At the end you left with a nice bag with candies. On Monday, Halloween day, I went to pick you with Mamie at the day care and we went to the mall - Gallery des Sources as each store was giving out candies, so we ask Sue and Vanessa to join us, you had fun going to each store and saying trick or treat. And did you ever get lots of candies.... Then we drove Mamie home and went to see a few of her neighbours as they had bags of candy for you too. Oh boy - hahaha. Once we got home, we were ready to give out our candies, you were more then happy to answer the door and give out the candies, you were so funny as each time the door bell would ring, you would say "encore" but in a good way, then you would say "OK buddies, I am coming" you were fun to watch, as you just love to share.

Now, if you ask me what you were dress as... I would have to say your favourite animal... An elephant that you wore at each event and you would make sure that I brought it each time. You would jump on one let as you were so excited to wear it. Even today being November 15th, you are still asking to wear it at the daycare. I think I will keep this custom for ever...

Love you Alexandre, thank you for being my sunshine
