All Choi's Eve, aka Halloween!

When Esther lived with the Quans in Houston, they started a new tradition called Quanoween, which involved eating barbeque, carving pumpkins, and making ginger snaps while waiting for trick-or-treaters. Oh, and of course, listening to Christmas music. Now that we've started our own family, Halloween is referred to as "All Choi's Eve." Because Esther was on bedrest this year, we weren't able to celebrate in style, but we hope to keep the Quanoween traditions going in the future.

On the day before Halloween, Allison's preschool had a Crazy Hat Parade. Here she is before school in her pumpkin hat. Thanks to Harmony (Phil's mom) for the adorable sweater! Unfortunately, she came down with a fever in the afternoon and came home early. Poor baby was sick on Halloween.


Allison was an adorable butterfly for Halloween. We took her to Pantego's Halloween Carnival at Bicentennial Park just a few blocks from our home. We love living in a neighborhood that has such a community feel. Allison loved playing with the plastic ducks. She was supposed to pick one up and get a prize, but she just wanted to play in the water. Notice her pigtail "antennae". Here she is, the cutest child there!



Cousin Gracie came over last weekend so she and Allison could pose for pictures in their costumes. As you can see, they were both sweet butterflies.
