On the afternoon of Saturday, October 25th, we took Clare to our local Borders Bookstore for their Halloween party. Clare loves to read and loves to spend a lot of time in here, so we decided to spend our afternoon there at the party.
Showing off her ferocious dragon stance!
Letting everyone know that even though she's a dragon, she's a nice one.
Color time! She can't get enough of art projects and the fact that they had coloring time, well, she was tickled pink! She made friends with the other kids and talked to them the entire time they were coloring.
So happy to be there!
As the kids were coloring, the party leaders were telling cute ghost stories and they asked the kids if they had any. Clare said, "oh, I do" and got right up in front of them and told a story. This is it, pretty much verbatim: "Once upon a time, there was a dragon. He was cold and found a house to go into to. It was a haunted house. There were ghosts and bats and witches and bats and vampires. They were trying to scare the dragon, but the dragon went 'BOO' and scared them all out of the haunted house." Everyone clapped, and of course, her mother was bowled over with pride.
Doing the suave dragon strut as they showed off their costumes.
Clare won the costume contest (for her age group) and won a Halloween book!
She also got to get a cookie and a drink in the cafe afterwards. Ahhhh, the sweet taste of reward for hard work at the end of the day!
