Nice to see that Jacques and Gabriella were also brought along!

I just want to say that since the children were born, I have never seen Albert and Charlene look so happy. I think these gorgeous kids have softened Albert's outlook on life. He looks besotted with his little family. And Princess Charlene just glows.
Charlene looks lovely in white skinny jeans and Alberts blue blazer is nice and dressy. He always looks good in it. Great to see the kids here too.

By the way, what is the strange thing to dress up for Halloween for superheroes or princesses? Shouldn't it be some ghost, vampire, skeleton etc.?

Do we really meed to expose little ones to vampires, ghosts, horrors? Enough of that around already imo.
If they have to celebrate Halloween I’d rather see them in a fireman and mermaid outfit, even if it is a little unimaginitive...

I don't know what the customs are in Monaco, but in the United States schools do not allow scary costumes or costumes representing the supernatural or occult.

Which is a little weird given the nature of the festival.

I hope Charlene shares a photo on them in their costumes on her Instagram page.

That is really strange - in Poland this custom is quite young but for me it was always the spirit of "black comedy" and I understand it as making the horror less scary and more fun to children.

It depends on the school and the school district. Our district has a "no weapons" rule, and clothing must not be provocative or suggestive (mainly problems with older students) or excessively bloody. We've had very few kids sent home for "inappropriate" costumes in my 20 years as a school librarian. I've seen lots of monsters, vampires, skeletons, etc.

I love the Christmas card picture but the one of the twins on their own is stunning. Princess Gabriella looks like an angel in her white dress.

Lovely photos - the Christmas tree is beautiful and the twins very cute. The picture of them on their own has a vintage air to it - gorgeous.

Lovely photos indeed of the family. Jacques and Gabriella are adorable and I love Gabriella's serious little face in the first photo. Sweet that they included their dog too, I didn't realise they had one.

Oh My, the twins are absolutely exquisite! 
The camera simply loves them, they cannot take a bad picture, from the day they were born....
ps: happy belated 4th birthday, angels.

I wonder why the other dogs weren't in the picture.
