Halloween 2016

For Halloween this year the kids decided to be truly wicked. Veronika dressed up in the Baba Yaga costume (Baba Yaga is a witch from Russian fairy tales who eats children and lives in a house with chicken legs deep, deep in the forest). Lina couldn't decide what she was going to be but finally made up her mind to be a little devil. The twins were pirates. As with every Halloween here in Kazakhstan, the kids go trick-or-treating around the apartments in our building, and then one of the professors puts up a celebration for the kids in the big atrium of our building. Just like last year, the twins had their best friend from school, Dariya, come join them for the fun of it all. Here are some pictures from the event.

Polina was a little devil. A very cute one too!

Lexa and Sophie are really into being true pirates!

Some of those were our own children!

As always they had a lot of fun, and we survived yet another Halloween!
