Apparently, Bode is now "too old" to go trick-or-treating. I figured he wouldn't want to dress up, but I think Ashley was hopeful the big man would have a change of heart. Sadly, he did not :-( I think he also told Ashley that "8th-graders don't have birthday parties." He did, however, say that 8th graders will still expect presents.
To help cheer Ashley up on one of her favorite holidays, I put on a costume and walked around the neighborhood with her. Here we are all dressed up--I'm the one in the Squid Games guard outfit.
Friday was middle school night at Choctawhatchee High School. The 8th-graders in the Choctaw feeder middle schools were invited to the football game to hang out with the band and get a taste for big-time band performances. Bode said he really liked it and had fun, although he did say it was tiring standing most of the game. Below is a video of the band's halftime performance. We have four years of this to look forward to, so we are very excited :-)November starts tomorrow, which means only a few more days until some of the local radio stations go to 24-hours a day of Christmas music. I am very excited!!! Pleasant week to all.
