All Hallows Eve!!!

We finished off our week long celebration of Halloween tonight with one final round of trick-or-treating. Mia was dressed as a kunoichi (lady ninja). I was a black cat...

The cowboys loped along with us...


Halloween in Tokyo is completely different than in the states. Here, EVERYONE wears elaborate costumes. Also, when you trick-or-treat, the kids politely ask how many pieces of candy the may have. Halloween is still not common in Japan, I only know of two neighborhoods in Tokyo that celebrate it (I'm glad ours is one of them).

It's great to see young Rhett's true cowboy nature coming through--like father like son!

I love that everyone dresses up for Halloween. Not 1/2 arsed like here in the US.
