October 31

I got sick so the Halloween party was cancel. At least the kids were happy when they came home from school and saw the decorations I put up for them. After dinner, scary pasta, they had fun dancing Michael Jackson Thriller at their hip-hop class.

My son Dan (8) made the pumpkin for the doorbell. It was his idea.

No body came trick or treat so we have sweets enough for the weekend.

And talking about the weekend...

From orange Halloween to red and green Christmas!

I am going to Moi, outside Stavanger, with 46 other lady's that blog about interior in Norway.

We are going to visit the store Den Franske Landstil

It is a nice social event to welcome winter season and the Holiday's in style.

I will blog more about this!

Halloween

This week we got the nicest Christmas feeling outside with white pure snow.

But indoors there is Halloween what matters.

The celebration starts with the pumpkin. This is a tradition, (make a pumpkin), that I only got a few years ego. We never did that in my home and here in Norway the Halloween celebration is relatively new. My hubby had never celebrated it before I came into his life, (this year is the first time he is going to dress up!)

I do miss celebrate this in my home country. In Colombia Halloween is call the Children's day and there are party's in all the neighborhoods. The kids dress up like their favorite TV heroes, animals or like things they want to be when they grow up, and the night of October 31 they go trick or treat singing songs for candy.

 The good atmosphere of candles and kids laughing makes Octobers darkest nights warm and magical.

PS: do you have a good pumpkin recipe you wanna share with me?
