Monster Mash!













Like everything else in China, Halloween has its own special twist. We promised the girls a Monster Mash party for Halloween night:

Halloween loot bags (from mema) filled with gummy nerds and candy corn (from Bowlers).

Bea and I decorated with orange & black balloons and the limited supply of creepy decor we keep hidden away for this night. (This is our third Halloween in China!!)

We decorated cupcakes (again with supplies courtesy of our friends and fam in the States.)

We bobbed for apples (Millie proved the tenacious winner.)

We introduced the girls to Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin.

We found hard, impossibly small pumpkins that we decided to decorate with Sharpies (or felt-tips for those reading in the UK or Oceania!)

And of course... had a monster mash dance party!

They did the mash
They did the monster mash The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash They did the mash
It caught on in a flash They did the mash
They did the monster mash
