Happy Halloween!

Halloween isn't really celebrated here but is picking up in popularity. I think maybe in a few more years it will be big enough, due to the fact that stores are catching on the monetary benefits of it, that we might actually celebrate it. Who knows, but for now this is how we daily celebrate Halloween.
My little bandits, Don Juan and his little side kick Chiquita Bonita, with their mustachio disguises. As you can see from their time hardened faces, they are ready to steal the hearts of all those around them. Unmerciful in the laughter and joy that they bring to everyone's hearts they terrorize this area with their smiles and giggles.

When that isn't enough then Marie takes on the fearsome Nutella monster face. As you can see it takes a great artist with many years of dedicated training to master this one.
When all is said and done, the evening usually ends after the clean up. However, sometimes the little monsters get tuckered out and just don't have enough left in them to terrorize anymore. This usually means cleaning off the art work followed by snuggles from the little clean monsters (with occasional brief intervals of a final struggle for more terrorizing) before drifting into dreamland.

You would almost really think you painted those mustaches (sp?) on - they are so cute! Glad you are still getting a "taste" (ha, ha - bad pun, I know!) of halloween = ).
