Halloween Fun

Can I just say how much I love Halloween. It is one of my favorite Holidays, along with Christmas and Thanksgiving. I just love how excited kids get about trick or treating and how fun it is to dress up. Although being a teacher on Halloween is difficult, because the kids are so wired with excitement and no academic learning can be done what-so-ever, it is still just so enjoyable to see how happy they are. At school the teachers dress up together by grade levels, so our kindergarten team decided to be pirates this year. Rrrrr!!! In my class I got a little crazy and decided to carve a pumpkin since we have been learning how pumpkins grow. Well needless to say some how I managed to get pumpkin guts sprayed across my classroom. It was quite entertaining actually. The kids had a blast finding the gunk and separating the seeds. We also had a Halloween parade and party, in which some how during the parade I managed to lose one of my students. Yikes!!! I know, and to top it off my principal was the one to return him to me. It was all good because one of the other kinder teachers lost one too, along with a 1st grade teacher. Let me just say, there is chaos during this parade.  Lol 

Don't we look like a bunch of scary pirates? Rrrrr! Beware
HOW! These are a few pictures from my sisters annual Halloween party. I thought her costume was pretty cool. My mom actually made it. She is Storm from X-men, and her eyes were freaking me out all night. I think this was one of the most creative costumes. He is a giant Sushi Roll. He actually knocked over a few people during the party every time he turned. 

At first I didn't know what my friend was here. I just thought he was a dresser, but he told me he's a one night stand. Lol I guess that's kind of clever. 

The winner of the costume contest was Teen Wolf and Selena. I thought Teen Wolf looked just like the movie and Selena did a good job with the huge butt insert. It was a fun and eventful night as usual. I keep trying to convince CJ that we should be Superman and Wonder Women but he won't wear the blue tights. One of these day's we'll win :(
