Halloween Party: Joy School

Thursday was the big Halloween party for Joy School. Jack's been looking forward to it for a while. They had to wait all the way until the end of Joy School and then they could wear their costumes - Jack was SO excited to show everyone his skeleton costume, but he decided to keep the mask off so that he wouldn't scare anyone (the mask makes Gracie cry).... This was a good idea. :) The siblings came too - and for Joy School that makes for a lot of kids! Jack decided to be a skeleton some time in August - I may be exaggerating, but it really feels like it has be that long! He loves all things scary, plus their first unit in school was on the body and we read a lot of books about bones and x-rays and finally with all of the doctor's appointments that we've been to it we talked about it even more. He's had his mind made up for quite a while and it's all very interesting to him. I think that makes his costume choice really cool ~ even if it is a little scary. Starting on the top left: Nicholas, Jack, Joey, Daniel, Nathan Olivia, Ana Pamela and Lila Jack and Joey making their silly faces... Jack and Daniel after singing their songs... Gracie had a great time too... She fell asleep in the car on the way there, so she wasn't all that happy to wake up in a costume and slowly stripped the entire time... Beginning... And this is her at the end... No costume and all ready for photos... :) Here comes a big week of Halloween! Let's hope the costumes make it all the way until Saturday!
