50's Day!

Today, they're celebrating the 55th anniversary of Aidan's school-- so they asked all the kids to come to class in 50's era duds. It's a nice idea, but given the struggle it can often be to get him to school on-time in his regular uniform, I can't say we were exactly keen on this idea when we first heard about it.

So we pegged Aidan's jeans, put him in a white t-shirt and a black jacket-- not leather, but it's got the right look to it-- and tried to grease up his hair. He didnt' really go for the hair gel too much-- I mean, he's 5.. he's never seen the Fonz or Sha Na Na!--so after managing to comb something of a duck's tail onto the back of his head, we sent him off to have a great time...

And from the looks of it at drop-off-- I swear, the place looked like someone set off a Grease bomb in there!-- they're going to be having a good day...
