WAX MUSEUM


Olivia's class has been learning about famous Missourians this quarter. They finished their study with a Wax Museum for all the parents. She just happened to draw the name of Emmet Kelly, a famous hobo circus clown. Of course she would get this name because she hates clowns. H-A-T-E-S. Not sure why, they just freak her out. So let's just say her face in the photos below isn't her portraying a sad clown. She is actually dying inside.  She put off getting her costume together until the night before the museum. And then her teacher was going to bring her a clown mask to wear but ended up forgetting it. She called me 15 minutes before the museum was to open and asked me to come do her make-up. I just happened to be flying around the grocery store, getting last minute stuff for her birthday party that night and getting her treats for school. I drove home at mock speed, grabbed any make-up I could find and dashed to the school. The make-up, birthday treats, Ben and sweaty me ran through the rain into the school with barely a couple of minutes to spare. Make-up was applied and just look at how thrilled she is to be alive:




Livi in action...she did an awesome job!
