Halloween.

This picture isn't from Halloween, but we bought JJ another costume on clearance since he now loves dressing up as a super hero : )

They don't celebrate Halloween here, so this year was definitely different.  We went to a party on base the Friday before Halloween that was a nightmare.  There were waaaaaay to many people there and then most of the candy that JJ got had nuts in it, so he couldn't eat it.  Brian proceeded to throw away the candy in front of JJ which caused a huge meltdown and Brian got annoyed that JJ was crying, but I said "I would cry too if you threw away all my candy"!!!  On Halloween day, they had a party at school since half the school is American.  JJ came home with face paint on which he immediately wanted taken off and wouldn't even let me take a picture : (  It was raining that night, so we didn't go back to base for trick-or-treating.  Learning how to celebrate American holidays here is interesting, maybe we'll get the hang of it before we leave.
