Costumes

I LovelOveloVelovELOVE Halloween!!! I have tried to do a theme for our costumes each year but this year, Jace wasn't having it! Which helped, cause I'm a little out of ideas (well, not really... I just don't want to do all the work involved in most of my ideas!) SO: Campbell is going as Rainbow Brite this year, complete with boots and a White Sprite. Jace is undecided still, but is shifting mostly between BumbleBee and Spiderman. I think I'd make Spidey, but order BB.

So we went from this ^^^ to this vvv in a matter of hours! It's also a family tradition of ours to have our costumes done close to the beginning of October, so I usually bust them out between GC sessions on Sat. and Sun. This year was a bit harder to get them done, which is why I only have Camp's done! Anyway, I'll get to finishing up the rest soon so you can see!! xoxo, Chelle
(As a side note, that brown rug {above} is covering our big paint spill, and the mess below is a GC tradition, we get out all the Geotracs for the kids and build and rebuild amazing set-ups!)
PS: The rainbow/star is appliqued on. I love the look but it's so darn time-consuming... oh, and I realize this costume is missing some key details, but I'm too lazy to add the rest!! Enjoy!

Community Helper

At Cam's work they had a 'meet the doctor' on a Saturday that the office was closed. Free hot dogs and hamburgers, sodas, and chips! He got about 20 new patients so the day was worthwhile. Mostly it was fun to get to know the staff on a non-professional basis. Every time I go in on a work-day, everyone is busy and running around. These are a few of the people Cameron works with.
Jace had a week at school where they learned all about different types of community helpers. His teacher asked Cameron to come in and talk to the kids about being a dentist and how he helps out in the community. Cameron did a great job! The kids were so interested and funny to listen to. Cameron taught them how to brush correctly and had everyone smile at him. Then a few kids got to come up and practice their skills on Barry the Bee. Jace showed everyone how to floss! He *loves* to floss his teeth! ^^^ Sorry for the blurry pic. I was in the back trying to control a little wiggle-worm named Campbell!

Notice the two clips on Jace's shirt? In his class they start out with 3 clips and lose them for not following rules, talking or being disrespectful. By the end of day, if you've lost all your clips, you lose out on playcenters. By 8:30a, Jace had already lost one for talking!! Nice...
