Happy Halloween at the Dinosaur Park

For the past couple of years we have got a pass to our local Dinosaur Park. I have never taken part in the extra activities. This year I looked into how much the Halloween Spooktacular would be and the price was not bad so I decided we should check it out.

Thank goodness we have an older sister to do our face painting. He LOVED it! I did Butterbean's for something and she very politely said, "You did really well for your first time and I am sure your next time will be better, but can I wash this off?" Sweet girl.I am not sure if my kids are boring or just simple or can just use their imagination because for the Dino park they went quite simple. Butterbean just wore a cape.Butterball with his batman sweatshirt and face paint. And yes, he chose the batman pj pants to wear with it.
And my tired frog who I woke up to go to this.They had stands here and there throughout the park with candy, pencils, bracelets, etc. The kids also got to make their own slime which was a HUGE hit. We had a lot of fun and plan to come back next year for sure. And they had one scare factor which scared the pants off my kids at first but then later they wanted to go back and see it again. Then we sat on a bench near it and watched the others going through get their pants scared off. I am so glad we went.

Never a surprise

Butterball's sense of style is never surprising. Especially when it comes to his shoe selection. It has become so normal now that I rarely notice it.Appleseed insisted on wearing his superman shirt but also wanted to wear the other one so this is how he spent most of the day.And when it is too quiet, this one is in trouble. He was caught raiding the watermelon. That turkey!

Racing

My kids had a fund raiser race at school. I loved it! Butterball is the closest one to me with his ID tag flapping in his face. Needless to say he did not win but he was so cute. The first race he did he raced with his arms folded the entire time. I was glad he didn't this time.Now him with his ribbon for participating. He loves this ribbon.Appleseed and his friend sitting in the winners circle. (A little side note, Appleseed looked at what I was doing and said, "The blog is so cute!")After the Kindergartners raced Appleseed has his own race.Later in the day it was Butterbean's turn. You can barely see her head and her smile, she didn't win either but had a lot of fun.
And her with her ribbon for participating. The money earned for the races are going to build a bigger play ground for the kids as the current one is quite small.I have to admit I do love this school, I love the uniforms, and I love what they are learning. I am very glad I moved them to a charter school.
