Halloween Day!!!!!!

Got up early in the morning to dress my princess as CINDRELLA since she had HALLOWEEN party at her school. My daughter had a parade at her school and later on some treat from her teacher and some goodie bags.

Halloween is a custom which was brought to US from Irish and Scottish people and is celebrated on October 31st . In Ireland and Scottland on this day a candle is lighted in the house at the window which is on the west side of the house and pumpkin is carved to respect the departed.Kids in the evening have a customary celebration called "TRICK OR TREATING".Childrens dress up in costumes and go to houses asking for treats and if they are not treated with anything then they try to do some sort of mischeif to the house owner or property - a trick. Here in US the pumpkins are carved to symbolise the harvest season. The main colours associated with Halloween are Orange and Black. The intention behind halloween celebration is very similar to the practise called "MAHALAYA AMAVASYA" in India where the respect is offered to the departed.
This is real fun for the kids over here since they get lot of candys.

In the evening had a nice time at a Birthday party. Tommorow there is a Halloween party at our Leasing office - so looking forward for it and Sunday we have guest coming over to our house. This weekend is full of partying!!!!!!!!
