Halloween in Japan! A neighbor had a party to show some Japanese children what we do in America. It was mostly small children but my big kids helped out. We trick-or-treated to seven houses around our block (prearranged of course) and they had a treasure hunt and various costume and jack-o-lantern contests. Now for the irony. We dressed Erika up as a Japanese girl! Straightened her hair and spray painted her hair black. Well, it didn't wash out! No kidding, she cannot get the black out! So I don't know how long she will be a brunette!
