Happy Halloween!

Dominic as Elmo. He decided at the Last minute to go dressed as Elmo today. My sister was here and we all had a great time.

Here are the kids dressed in their Halloween Finest. Dominic (Spider), Luca (BumbleBee) and Gioia (Skeleton). We went today to the Harvest Moon Festival in town. They had a parade, jumping balloons and costume contest. Dominic was wearing the Elmo at the time. I think if he had been in the Spider costume he might have won a prize.

Oh i almost forgot. We went to a Haunted House, put on by the local Lions Club. Dominic had Massimo carry him and hid his face the whole time. Gioia was scared but brave and walked by me the whole time. Afterwards I said "Dominic do you think you want to come back and do this again next year? " He said, "Why?" LOL. I just laughed and said, "oh for fun." He said, "No."
Why indeed.

As part of the festivities this week we also went to a Pumpkin Carving party. We had food, drinks, carved pumpkins and played. It was great. Here are Gioia and her friend Charlotte making crazy faces.
