Costume Parade

This year I knew that I couldn't be as involved in the class parties at Landon's school. As the years have progressed it seems like there is less time to put towards these kinds of things. This year I didn't sign up at all to help out with the Halloween party at Landon's school. I figured I could lend a hand during Christmas and Valentine's instead. Well....when Landon found out I wasn't going to be in charge of the party this year he was more than a little disappointed. {Which secretly made me feel REALLY good. I mean...come on...my FOURTH grader wanted me to come and hang out in his classroom STILL!!!!} He asked me if I would still at least come and watch him do his costume parade. How could I turn him down? The parade was at the same time as the class party, so I was able to sit in on a little bit and poke fun at all of his friends. Mackenzee came too {in her Dorothy costume}.

All of Landon's friends from his classroom {excluding girls....OF COURSE!}

What a handsome kid!!!!

Like last year, Landon was super excited to take Mackenzee with him as he paraded around the school. Mackenzee ate up the attention, and I think Landon enjoyed showing off his sister too. :0)

Our neighbor Whitley was in the parade too....isn't she a scary witch?

Genea dressed up as a witch this year too...

I don't know what's more scary....Landon's "gun" {he was pretending his hand was a gun}, or Mackenzee's finger up her nose....

It was a fun afternoon for all of us. I am still beaming over Landon wanting me to be a part of his school activities. I figured by now he'd be embarrased to have me hang out with him. Instead, he made sure all of his friends knew that I was his mom. I've still got the title "Landon's mom".....FOR NOW anyway. :0) I'll take it as long as I can get it!
