Book Character Parade

Allison's class and the rest of kindergarten and first grade had a book character parade on Halloween.  Allison originally wanted to be Angelina Ballerina but the book was missing in action leading up to her event.  Major props to Daddy persuasion and a promise of ice cream got her to change her mind to Pinkalicious.  We had easy access to the book and she had a complete costume from her birthday party a few months back.  We got her all dolled up in complete pink and dropped her off at school.

Unfortunately the morning was cold, dreary and rainy so we huddled under the sidewalk cover on benches waiting for the parade to begin.  There were a lot of creative costumes and the kids looked so proud as they carried their books.  The teachers were dressed up as well.  Allison loves to put on a show and had a huge grin on her face as she proudly paraded by us.  They were walking fast so I was only able to snap one picture, but I think it captured the essence of her excitement!
