Halloween

Today Mateo celebrated his first Halloween - as a TIGER - Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Hoy Mateo celebro su primer dia de Halloween - como un TIGRE - Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Grandma and Grandpa came over before the trick-or-treating began for a pizza dinner. Mateo was not very excited about putting on his costume. We had to try and convince him putting black paint on his nose was a good idea - mom, dad, and grandpa all had painted black noses before Mateo would even think about it.

Grandma Sue y Grandpa Jim vinieron antes de que las festividades empezaron para compartir una pizza. Mateo no fue tan contento acerca de ponerse el disfrase. Toco convincerle poniendo la pintura negra en la nariz de todos - mama, papa y grandpa antes de que el lo pensaria.

Dad, Mom and Mateo went trick-or-treating with Giovanni and his parents. The boys rode in a wagon and got out at each house to make their most convincing plea for candy. Mateo loved going right up to the door. He caught onto the concept right away.

Papa, Mama y Mateo fueron trick-or-treating con Giovanni y sus papas. Los ninos montaron el vagon y salieron cada vez que paramos en una casa nueva para pedir los dulces. A Mateo le encanto llegar a la puerta, cogijo la idea de pedir dulces de una vez.

Once he got back to the house, Mateo was eager to pass out candy to each of the trick-or-treaters who came by. He might have even enjoyed that more than getting the candy himself! He did NOT like the older kids who came by with scary masks though. Those tricksters had to take off their masks to receive their treats! Los abuelos Jose and Edelmira watched Mateo via Skype.

Una vez que llego a la casa de nosotros, Mateo fue feliz dandoles dulces a los otros ninos que llegaron a nuestra casa. Tal vez disfruto eso mas que recibirlos! NO le gustaron los ninos disfrasados con mascaras asustantes, a ellos les toco quitarse las mascaras antes de que recibirian un dulce de Mateo! Los abuelos miraron la accion por Skype.

By the time the evening was through, Mateo was exhausted, but, as Tony the Tiger would say, he had a "grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat" time!

Cuando llego el final de la noche, Mateo estaba exhausta, pero, como dice Tony el Tigre (del cereal), lo paso super <>
