Annie and the King on Parade

It's time again for the Halloween parade at Joy and Daniel's school


Here's Daniel class parading past Joy's class with their teacher Wonder Woman ('cuz after all, what female elementary school teacher ISN'T Wonder Woman?).  Joy is seated in the middle of the picture with her hair in pigtails.  Daniel is off to the right.


He chose to dress as a king with a gold cape (gold is his current favorite color).


Joy's teacher encouraged her class to dress up as characters from books, and Joy opted to be Annie from the Magic Tree House series.  We put her hair in pigtails, and she carried around her Master Librarian card and a book about ancient Egypt.  I wish we could go there.


Joy's teacher assembled a costume to show her enthusiasm for El Nino.  We're all excited to finally be getting some rain around here. 


I always enjoy seeing the costumes the kids, teachers, and even some of the parents come up with.  I especially liked this rebel pilot towing BB-8, the little droid in the newest Star Wars movie (premiering in theaters in 49 days, but who's counting?).


Another child dressed as BB-8, itself.


Anna and Todd were less enthralled with the parade than I was . . .


. . . probably because all they could see of it was the backs of a hundred delighted parents.
