Halloween I

Emmylou's school had their annual Halloween parade on Thursday of last week, kicking off a seemingly endless string of Halloween costume-wearing occasions. I'm starting to wonder if Halloween is going to be bigger than Christmas pretty soon! With all the other Halloween activities we've had, Emmylou and Miller both ended up wearing their costumes on 3 of the last 4 days. At least we got our money's worth out of the costumes this year.

Anyway, most of my photos of the "parade" (i.e., a quick walk around the perimeter of the chapel) came out blurry, so here's the best one of E in her Belle costume with her wig (Tripp's the green army man from Toy Story):Once in the chapel, her class sang a Halloween song. Her teachers were dressed as Snow White and the Itsy Bitsy Spider.

And the best surprise? Gary had gotten stuck in California on business but ended up flying all night on a last-minute flight just so he could come to the school for the show! He got there just in time.
