Halloweeners
Today was Halloween Fun Day at the school, so the girls dressed up. We worked hard on these costumes (well, compared to how hard we normally work on costumes), and I think they turned out adorably!!!
Also, I’d like to go on record here to say that Alice’s friends, who talked to Alice all week about their planned costumes (”I’m gonna be this! No wait, maybe this!” and “I’m not gonna tell you — it’ll be a surprise!” respectively) and then showed up today in regular clothes, leaving Alice feeling out of place and embarrassed for actually getting into the spirit of the day, are poopy butt losers. Bleaugh to them. Bleaugh, in fact, to most of the kids in the high school, who are too apparently damn cool-slash-lazy to dress up today. Bleaugh, I say!!

Wow, how lame of them. What’s cool is getting into the spirit and having fun with it. And their costumes looked awesome!

Freshmen chicken out, generally speaking. They don’t know how it’s going to play out. Theater geeks and upperclassmen tend to go through with it; that’s been our experience anyway.

I say KUDOS to your girls for putting together and wearing such awesome costumes! It does stink when “friends” don’t go along with the program and make you feel left out, but chances are pretty good that those kids were feeling under-dressed and left out themselves, after seeing the fun that the kids who *did* dress up had!

I think they looked fabulous!! And I, too, hope those girls felt left out NOT dressing up.
