Halloween just so happened to fall on Monday this year, much to my delight, because that meant that I got to go to the school Halloween parade! Every year Ledger's elementary school invites the kids to bring in their Halloween costumes (in a bag, not worn). Then, in the afternoon they invite all the parents to come watch as they all parade through the halls and show off their cool costumes! Ledger was pumped, of course, because we had planned a head and he got a really awesome inflatable turtle costume! He was so proud! We got there and helped him get into it when disaster struck- the batteries died! Oh no! The whole thing deflated, along with his excitement. Fortunately, we had enough time and we live close enough that I was able to quickly drive home and fill my pockets with batteries and get back in time to change them out. I grabbed a bunch extra, and it's a good thing because another student in his class had the same problem!
With the costume fully blown up, he was able to strut around the school proud of his fantastically cute turtle costume! The whole thing was so incredibly cute and funny as the whole school, Kindergarten through 5th grade, showed off the creativity and joy of their fun costumes! I will miss this when he goes to middle school, that's for sure.
