Parade Day

Today was Parade Day at Simon's school. Being that Parade Day seems like a pretty important occasion, Hava took the day off. The Blue Guppies (Simon's class) has been reading The Cat in the Hat this week and they made their own costumes (they were Thing Ones and Thing Twos). Simon was lucky enough to get a size 4 Elmo shirt in the mail just in time for it to be a part of his costume (thank you).

Here is Simon with classmates pre-parade:

And here is Simon, who had had enough of marching and who wouldn't wear his blue hair, in the parade with Matthew:

After the parade a tumbling team performed:

Simon loved the hip-hop music and jumped and danced:

Then the drummers did their thing while the L train slowed to watch:

Simon performed his wierd walk/lunge/jump routine for the crowd:

And here is Simon in motion: this is actually Simon dancing - notice the subtle movement of his hips and shoulders
