We spent halloween at The Embassy. It.was.AMAZING! They had 800, yes that is EIGHT HUNDRED, kids sign up. And they had to be under 12 so you can imagine how big the embassy is. Anywho... they did it up right. The pics don't do it justice but you can get the idea. With 800 children it was a bit crowded and therefore photos were difficult but we had a blast! We met our neighbors at the entrance, lost them after the first floor, and found them again on the playground afterward. Which was probably better because it was hard with my little family and if you add 4 others it's insane! So... onto the photos.

My pretty little mermaid.

The Hall of Justice was fun. They had men dressed up like Superman, Batman, Spiderman etc... so cute. I would have gotten a pic but we got there with the group from our apartment and it was just too hard.

We did get some Star Wars Photos. Here is Max with a Storm Trooper. Sorry for the blurr - the flash malfunctioned.

Max and Maggie with C3PO.

The 50's theme was fun. They had records hanging, a jukebox and old car etc.

My favorite was "under the sea". The put blue celophane on the walls and hung fish everywhere. The effect was great. They even had a guy dressed like a shark taking photos.


Then there was the circus. Mike liked this one the best. It was pretty great. Clowns, pop corn, jugglers, great music. One woman was even carrying a bunny for the kids to pet.


Let's not forget the bubbles.

MIke's office did a western theme and it came out great. Here's a LIVE wanted poster.

Mike's boss and officemate as sherrif and cowboy.

The secretary who planned it all.
The kids enjoying their loot.

Maggie and Emma were so cute sliding together.
Blurry fun!
Line for the Haunted House.
They brought in the fuselage from a plane and made the theme around "the ghosts of the dead". We, of course, did not go in.

Very cool! I can't believe how much Maggie's face has changed. The kids looked adorable:)
Wow, they really know how to celebrate there!
Next year, can I come to the Embassy??? :) Max looks like he is 8. His little chin area is getting so thinned out- like how they do when they grow up and aren't babies anymore..... (sigh) :) Maggie is beautiful- Paisley saw her photos and she said "who's that pretty girl?" so sweet! :)
