HALLOWEEN IN RUSSIA





This is what we showed the Russians about how to celebrate Halloween.
Friday night we had an English club party.


From left to right: 4 long-coming English clubbers & Elder Porter (Mike in the white sweater is the one who walks home with us after club)
English club party.  Only person in this picture who is not a member of the church is the lady on the far left behind the hand.
Trick or treating...everyone had fun, even this doctor.
Elder Tsai had fun, too. 
The spudnuts we made for the district party Saturday night.  We made half this many for Friday night.
The Ghost Walk (as opposed to cake walk...they got a sucker with a kleenex tied around it, instead of a cake) at the district party on Saturday.
Ghost Walk (in case you are wondering, John was a farmer, I was a Hawaiian muu-muu mama).
Ready for more games
Straw sucking m&m game...a favorite!

Now costumes (except ours):
Elder Winberg and Natashia (She likes to have her picture taken...actually all Russian girls like to have their picture taken)
Elder "Potter", Natashia and Sasha
Elder Dahl
Elder Kempton
Sasha
Natashia, Valari and Sister Parker
Somebody brought a pumkin to cut....this is as orange as they get.  Nikita & Elder Dahl
Everyone...except as I count, this is NOT everyone, so the others must have been making a rush on the spudnuts.  I took the picture, but where is John???

We had a fun time sharing Halloween with the Russians...and they loved it!!
