So, for those of you who read a couple of days ago you know that Bennett will be playing the part of a cow in the school Christmas play. We received notice today that KJ will be playing a sheep. Which means I now have 2 costumes to make, hooray for me! I am actually really excited to see them, and hopefully whatever I put together won't cause them too much embarrassment.
On the subjects of costumes, this Friday is "dress like a Native American or Pilgrim" day at school. When we first received the notice, Matt and I privately joked that we should send Bennett in a loin cloth and see what happens. Talk about breaking the christian school dress code! I know, we are horrible. I didn't really think my kids would care about dressing up, but boy was I wrong. Bennett asked me tonight what he could wear. Another costume, are you kidding me? He said he wanted to be a Native American, and I chose not to bring up the loin cloth option. I asked him what he thought he should wear as a Native American. That is when Kendall joined the conversation and said,"Mommy, Native Americans wear red, white, and blue." Umm...what?!?! Apparently the "American" part of Native American caused KJ to think that they wore flags. In her defense we did just celebrate Veterans Day and the kids all wore red, white, and blue in honor of our Veterans. Anyway, so far all I have gotten out of Bennett is that he wants to wear feathers. So...I'm thinking a big bird costume? Just kidding, hopefully I can come up with something that is both creative and school code appropriate in the next 24 hours. Wish us luck!
