At our kids school 5th grade does a wax museum every year. This year it was finally our turn. I will have to say we lucked out with our recent trip to DC, Jeron's work, and my parents closet, everything kind of fell into place. JJ got the list of names to choose from the day we got home from DC. We circled Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and one other I can't recall. It worked out perfect. The next day we found out it would be Thomas Jefferson. This meant that his backdrop was all but done. We used the pictures we took on our trip and Jeron printed them up. It looked awesome.
I was very impressed with how well the kids did. They were awesome and acting like they truly were wax. It was like a library in gym full of the entire 5th grade class. I loved all the creativity in the costumes and backdrops. These kids (PARENTS) went all out. It was said perfectly in Parenthood, "They give our kids these projects to get back at the parents" JJ and us got an A on our project. We are so proud of ourselves. hahaha

I love the way they look
JJ and I feel like we could give you any fact you would like about Thomas Jefferson from a 5th grade view point. I did learn something new today. Billie Holiday is a GIRL! I always thought she was a boy. Ha, great to know. JJ had a great time but said that it was really hard to be still that long. He also thought he would pass out. I think that was just an exaggeration. Hmmmm! Thanks to Grandma, and Mama and Papa for coming.
