School Halloween

 The boys school knows how to celebrate Halloween. It begins with a huge parade by the whole school.  The kids all sit in the middle of the gym and are called up by category (moving vehicles, witches and goblins, food etc) and anyone dressed in that category parades around the other kids.  After the parade the parents set up food and activities in each classroom while the kids play outside.  Above is Ads (as a cheetah) and his two buddies.
 Adler knows how to find the sugar.  After eating 2 cupcakes and several cookies in his classroom, he asked if we could go to Landons class party.  Immediately he found donuts on a rope.  
 So fun!
I didn't get any pictures of LT, he was too fast.  When they called up food (he was a banana), he skipped around the room, high fiving everyone, K-8th graders, teachers he knew and didn't know, parents and siblings.  It truly is amazing how confident he is now.  In Kindergarten he walked around the circle with his teacher and sat down as quickly as possible. In 1st grade he maybe got up and walked around, head and eyes glued down.  Last year we didn't go due to Elsie's death.  I like to attribute this confidence to high quality parenting, but I have to give most of the credit to his teachers and the incredible school.
