Halloween Fun - Part Four

Yeah its Halloween Day and we are so excited we could hardly sleep! (Well, Mom didn't sleep for other reasons than excitement, ie:Chloe) There is a lot to do and a lot of fun to be had today. At 9:30am the kids have a Halloween Parade, they all parade through the school one grade level at a time so the others can watch when it is not their turn. All the kids really get into it, but not as much as the teachers do. We had a pirate, Snow White, a #2 pencil, a Ballerina, Cruela Deville, GI Joe, a baseball player, Little Bo Peep, and that was just the teacher's costume! It was definatley the most political parade I have been too. There were kids with "Vote McCain" signs and kids yelling "Vote Obama!" I heard two kids in the hall saying, "America is doomed if Obama wins," and other said "no if McCain wins we can kiss it goodbye!" Politics, well the kids are even into it this election, it's going to be interesting. Then at 1:00pm I was back to the school for class parties! (Did I mention I am Homeroom Mom for Kenzie & Calvin classes. CRAZY!!!)



Calvin and his"Hobbes" in the parade with his friends, Andrew and Darian.

Calvin's teacher Mr. Whimmer, we were surprised he didn't dress up as a Ute!

Kenzie and her friends Gabby and Lauren.

Mrs.Shupe, Kenzie's teacher dressed up like a pirate! She had told the kids she was going to be a teacher and they were a little bummed. Surprise!

Mrs. Johnson, Corby's teacher was Snow White and that fits her perfectly. She is always singing to the kids and teaching them songs!


Corbyn's class loved watching the parade & parting with her teacher who is from South Africa, Australia and England! How fun and did I mention she loves Wombats? They played Bingo, did the Monster Mash and threw bean bags in the pumpkin!




Kenzie's party was great! They played throw the beanbag into the witches pot, decorated cookies, had to eat doughnuts off a rope and put their hand in the "Blood & Guts" station. They also ate lots of popcorn and chocolate milk. What a fun party!





Calvin's part was great, too! They decorated cookies, played Halloween Bingo and the best game of all..."the Mummy Wrap!" Calvin was the mummy and he was a great sport, even when his friends wrapped up his face! And as Dad would say, "Fun was had by all!"
