fall art show 2014

This year's theme was The Wizard of Oz, and a little bit of The Wiz thrown in.

Beautiful Cordelia as a munchkin.

These interviews are the best and my picture is lousy. 

Bea is a munchkin from the WIZ.

The hot air balloons were the pièce de résistance. I think it took them 2 weeks. Bea would come home with dried glue and argue that it was her skin coming off. 

This was Cordelia's class project. Their favorite part was painting the ruby slippers and covering them in glitter.

They even did a little performance piece.

Cordelia's class got to pick which character they wanted to be.

She chose tin man and shouted every line.

Coco enters the frame here. 

Cordelia said she wanted to find a spot out of the way to enjoy her snack. She sat out of the way but placed her drink and plate right in the middle of the yellow brick road.

There is alway a big display of fresh fruit at the art show. This year was bushels of apples. They each took two and then we went out for tacos. I am going to miss these shows when they're over.

Look at this face. This face is four years old. Bea chose this dress for her day and a big bow.

The dinner request was "breakfast for dinner". Bea loves beacon. After dinner we opened her cards and presents. Every card gets such a big response from her.  She keeps them all.

Her crown was made at school as was a class card. It was more like a book. One boy said he loved her and drew her a very details ipad.

But what she has wanted for well over a year, was a bike. Almost every night she asked for one. She can really pump those legs and move at an alarming speed. So we need to wear helmets and work on stopping.
