Riley's School Hoe Down - Yee Haw...

Riley's Class had a Hoe Down on Friday, Oct. 30th. They got to dress up as Cowboys/Cowgirls or farmers. Riley was a combination of a cowgirl and farmer. She has been so excited about this day. Her class has been working very hard in music to prepare for this fun event. Riley's class performed the square dance for the parents and then they got to pick a parent to dance with. Riley chose Daddy and he was thrilled to square dance. :) When Regan was in Kindergarten she too picked Daddy. He is becoming quite the square dancer. He won't admit that he had fun but I captured many smiles on the camera. After the Hoe Down, we went back to Riley's class for refreshments and they sang a couple of songs for us ("Down on Grandpa's Farm" and "Sweetly Sings the Donkey") and recited a poem on manners. It was a fun day! Cute little cowgirl/farmer
