When I was a kid we got to dress up for Halloween at school and wear our costumes all day. We did a parade in the gym and all the parents came. I remember kids wearing crazy stuff like big snowmen and things they could not sit down in. I remember being an awesome witch in 3rd grade. I wish I could find the picture in my mom's big box of pictures. Anyway, schools got a different idea about Halloween and stopped doing that stuff. In fact, when Megan was in Kindergarten in Iowa, they did not even celebrate Halloween, it was just an "Autumn Celebration" so no religious affiliations were offended. LAME!
Well, the times have changed again and for the first time in their lives Brandon and Tyler got to dress up at school! They did a parade and partied all day! (I was there to help.) Megan's Jr. High even allowed it, but she was too cool for that. Sad, she never got to dress up at school. They might be big kids now, but it's never too late for a good Halloween parade!
