Pioneer Days

We were all excited last Friday for Jakob.  It was their Pioneer Day in school.  I spent the a few days looking through Value Village for a pageboy hat, boots and suspenders for his costume.  I found a nice leather pair of boots and an adjustable corduroy pageboy hat.  I used Raymond's old suspenders and added it to Jakob's old dress pants.  I got my inspiration from Anne of Green Gables.  It all went together perfectly.  And I love Jakob's excitement about his Pioneer Day in school.  Beata kept saying that her brother looks like "Green Gables" : ).  I can't wait for Beata's turn.  I'm sure it'll be more challenging..and fun!
