Happy Halloween!

One of the school activities that I was looking forward to doing this year was Ate's first Trick or Treat!  I got excited with thinking of what she's going to wear, haha!  One thing was for sure, she won't be a princess or a fairy because she is not into those. . . yet.  I wanted her to wear something she really likes and one that makes her happy.  I figured that if she likes what it is, she would definitely wear the costume.

And if there's one thing she really likes now, it's M&M's chocolate (Plain)!  So I went online and googled for some costumes which my Mom's dressmaker can make.  Initially, I wanted something like this:

But went with this instead . . .

because it looked more COMFORTABLE!


Mom's dressmaker did a good job with the yellow top.  As for the M&M's logo, I just sent it to the Printer and had it printed. =)

She LOVED it!!!  And was excited to wear it!

As I've mentioned in an earlier post, I love the school's idea of recycling old shoe boxes and turning them into a Trick or Treat bag.  


Ate actually worked on the pumpkin during her Arts and Crafts time in class =)

I'm glad she enjoyed her first Trick or Treat =) 


Everyone at home enjoyed it too. . . .Thanks to her candies!  Haha!

Wishing all of you a great weekend! =)

Trick or Treat!

Have you ever experienced being too excited over something that you started planning early only to find out that things aren't going to happen the way you expect?! 

Ate has a Costume Parade/Trick or Treat at school next week.  Since it's her first Trick or Treat. . . I'm excited!  (I'm probably more excited than her!)  So I started thinking of her costume as soon as her classes started!  Okay, that was an exaggeration, Haha!

I bought her this orange bucket a couple of weeks ago for her Trick or Treat.  Since it's Halloween, I would like to call it a "cauldron" . . .ala Harry Potter, heehee.




Then I got a letter from the school . . . .


They asked the parents for a shoe box which will be made as the kids' trick or treat bags.  So there goes my pretty orange cauldron, haha!  But I love and support the school's idea of going green by recycling the shoe boxes.  

If you like to make your own Trick or Treat bag, I found one online which uses a shoe box:
