Kindergarten Circus

Believe it or not, we came home late Thurs. night from HI so we could be @ elementary school on Fri. am for Cole's Kindergarten Circus! We have attended the past 2 yrs. to watch neighbors & friends, so my boys have been counting down for their very own opportunity to star under the big top:) After much deliberation 'cuz he is my son & gentle encouragement from his teacher, Cole decided to be a seal with a couple buddies & a cute girl from other class-It was really quite cute to see the gym decorated with their artwork! Here they are waiting for parade part & also with whole group...













The strong man solo ended up going to Cole's buddy Caleb who is a lil' wrestler anyway, so natural but Cole's orig choice:) In the back row you can see our friend Olivia Dent as an elephant as well:) I also had to take a picture of Cole with our neighbor Matthew who's actually in the other class-He chose to be a clown 'cuz they get to dress up the asst. principal & even throw a pie in his face some years:)














The seal skilz included turning on their stools as well as "balancing" a ball on their noses & playing instruments not to mention barking like seals, being rewarded with fish & keeping their flippers poised for action...Basically it's a culmination of all they've been learning in gym & music classes throughout the year.
