Halloween Party

The Halloween Party was a success even after the drama of weather reports and moving the location. Thanks to Trisha who let us move it to her house with the 70% chance of rain that was predicted. After moving everything over there and calling everyone about the change in venue....you guessed it, no rain! But the kids had a ball and Bash was still the Director of the Party (as he liked to call himself)...but he did anoint Nicholas his C0-Director since it was moved to his house.

On another note....it is amazing how many days off the kids get at Catholic School. Bash has been off since Thursday afternoon and quite frankly I am not sure why. Probably some Saints birthday. Secretly, I like having Bash at home with me. I like not having the chaos of getting ready at the crack of dawn for preschool. I like that he can eat his breakfast at the table and not in the car as I am fighting through traffic to make it on time. And the fact that we can do whatever we want on no certain schedule is nice.

Sometime this week I have to get moving on a school project. Sebastien has to dress as a Saint for All Saints Day on Nov. 1st. Making costumes is not my strong trait. I thought we could pick St. Sebastian giving the name and all. I looked up what he was all about and it looks like St. Sebastian was the protector of the plague. I find this amusing since my Sebastien has contracted every illness from every kid in his class this year. I'll need to do some more research since I have no idea how to dress him for that.

Anyhoo- good thoughts for great-grandma Anns tests today!

You are welcome! We had a great time at the party, too! I think you should send him as St. Sebastien, just draw red circles on his face and it will look like he has the plague. He could carry an empty bottle of Calamine lotion . . .
