Halloween in Switzerland is kind of like Halloween in Chile. It's starting to gain some momentum in certain areas, but not all. Because it's not really a huge deal, the kids didn't really make a huge deal out of what their costumes would be. So, when the Primary put on it's annual Halloween party, Luke threw on some camo and called it good. Jake and I whipped up a last minute Pokemon character costume out of Mack's crib sheet about 15 minutes before we were supposed to leave. And I grabbed whatever I could find in our bin for Mack. Perfect. Hahaha.
Susan was in charge of organizing the party for all of the kids. She did a great job! Everyone was running around having a blast! Different organizations were in charge of different rooms.
The Young Women did the donut eating contest and pinning the spider on the web...There was a haunted house, cupcake decorating, some fun ball games, touch and feel boxes that my boys HATE (grosses them out), crafts, and plenty of food to eat! It was a blast!

Claire and Jake giving it their best shot. Harder than it looks!
Mack was a fan of the donuts.
And the lollipops that we were handing out!
Salome was Mack's new best friend!
Oh! And bobbing for apples with NO STEMS ATTACHED!
The boys really had to go for it to get their apple. They got drenched... but managed to win the prize!
Mack loved his costume last year. He owned his little pumpkin bum. This year, we could barely get him to put the fireman pants on. He refused the cool jacket the entire night, and only put the hat on for the last 30 seconds of the party. Nice. At least I had my camera with me during those 30 seconds.
Happy Halloween :)
