50's Day

Wednesday was Wesley's 50th day of school, so the kindergarteners celebrated with a 50's day. They had root beer floats and popcorn during a "drive-in" movie. They had cardboard boxes decorated like 50's cars that the kids sat in while watching Cars. I didn't get to go because of work, but Wesley told us all about it. He loved it! 

We had a little sample container of pomade, so we used the real deal to give Wesley the greaser look. He laughed and laughed while I did his hair.

And here's a cute morning shot of Curtis T

Wesley and Curtis

or

Mario and Luigi

It was Wesley's idea to do Mario Brothers. This year my token handmade item was the overalls. I had planned to do hats, but finding the right shirt color and hat material color combination for Luigi was more difficult than expected. I found that green shirt Tuesday night by chance.

We went over to our friends' house for hot dogs/nachos as usual this year, but afterward we headed to church for Trunks and Treats.

Joshua (Peter Pan) - his little sister was Tinkerbell :)

This was the Charlotte's Webb station. They were really cute.

They weren't really into taking this picture.

We had a fun time, but the boys got tired earlier than expected and requested just going home. John Mark and I happily obliged.

Farm Field Trip

Wesley's class visited a local farm yesterday, and I got to join in as a parent chaperone. The place used to be a dairy farm, but mostly now I think they grow Christmas trees and host guests. First, they got to go on a hay ride (well, minus the hay) up to a playground area.

We got to roast marshmallows (seemed a little warm for that!)

I think Wesley's favorite part (apart from getting to ride a bus for the first time) was the sand pit. 

Every kid got to pick out two mini pumpkins. Here is Wesley searching for the perfect ones. 

Found 'em!

The whole class

Wesley said that after they got back to school they were all worn out, so they just laid on the floor and listened to stories.
