Holidays are extra special fun times that not all schools observe due to the incredible diversity of their student body populations. Springfield is pretty homogenized, so like the rest of the area, they do holidays. EVERYBODY showed up. I mean everybody. They had the costume parade where everyone walked around school, but I've never seen so many parents and cousins and aunts and uncles and grandparents and I'm not even going to guess who all else came to take pictures. Needless to say, I was blown away. First grade told me to turn back because there were, like 60 people in that room, you couldn't move. You couldn't really move in 5th grade either but... sugar up some 5th grade boys, that's kind of self explanatory :) they were really cute though, someone dressed up as a working gumball machine, and two of the kids came as Thing 1 and Thing 2. And obviously a bunch of grapes.
Mr. Alex and I go way back. We are Trek nerds. This is Fear. I mean Mr. Moser.
And this is Nightmare. I mean, Mr. Howells.
Cats. Why are there cats, that has nothing to do with Halloween. It's me and I love cats and they are my cats, for starters, so there. Secondly, October 28th was National Cat Day, and as a Cat Lover, I would be remiss if I didn't bring that to your attention, so I've done my job for the week educating you in trivial knowledge [you might win Jeopardy with that, you never know]. And lastly, I was a crazy cat lady for Halloween, which the kids got a huge kick out of. I safety pinned all those toy cats to my sweater, and I let the actual cat roll all over it because you can't be a cat lady with out some stray cat hair.
