Our little ladybug donned her wings and wand and flew off to her costume parade and fall festival at Bethany last week. She looked precious if I do say so myself...
So many cute little people dressed up for Halloween -- of course a sea of beautiful Disney princesses and brave super heroes showed up in full force and there were some super cute cowboys, tigers and an adorable (but very sad because he missed his Mama) hamburger too! All the children were so excited and took turns handing out their Halloween treats they brought for each other.
Linda and I manned the Halloween Hopscotch station at the festival. We managed to hand out stickers efficiently without injury to any of our guests. It was nice to catch up between hopscotchers and we got to enjoy some time with our little ones too. A lovely LAST Bethany fall festival for us!!
The next day was Winston's turn, he had a Storybook Character parade at school yesterday morning. Any bets as to his costume??
Yep, you guessed it - there are books about football players you know!! Winston enjoys the Matt Christopher sports series and of course we have the football book!
He looked even more authentic this year with REAL pads AND a missing front tooth that came out on Thursday. (Sorry for the graphic picture...Winston requested an EXTREME Close up of the snaggle tooth mouth he now has).
This is our 2nd year in a row as a football player - he wouldn't even discuss anything different....imagine that!!
There were some FANTASTIC characters in the BHES parade yesterday....the Paper Bag Princess rocked (Winston's PE teacher), we had some great Pinnochio's too.....it was super fun to see all the Beacons decked out in their creative costumes.
I double dipped on school time yesterday and went back in the afternoon for Winston's class party. The kids wrapped each other as mummies and had a great time. The energy in the class was at an all time high -- A Friday before Halloween weekend makes for a high octane cocktail for elementary school children!!
Great Friday for sure!!!
We ended a fun week with Future Fox Night at the Swamp on Friday Night- that was so great it deserves a post all its own....stay tuned for that.
The Halloween trickery ramps up tonight....time for the sugar overdose and an extra hour of sleep!!!
Happy Halloween!!!
