Rain Festival 2009; "At the Movies" theme.

Each year at the end of October, Heritage celebrates Rain Festival (when the rains come, naturally!). With this being the longer rainy season (lasting about 4 months), funny thing is we've not had a lot of rain during the celebrations in recent years- till this year. It poured in the afternoon so all the booths for the carnival-like celebrations had to be moved indoors. The rain had cleared during the actual event, so some folks did move outside again...
Anyway, here are some of my favorite costumes for this year...


Lubega (left) and Logan dressed as Twiddle Dee and Twiddle dumb. Not sure which guy was which character, but they sure had GREAT costumes!




So many of the secondary kids dressed up this year- making things more fun!


Above: These friends dressed as Timon (Lion King- Teresa), movie theater snacks (popcorn is Betsy, Green M&M is Shanna), Napoleon Dynamite (Brent) and Debbie Reynolds in Singing in the Rain (Lisa). I dressed as the Runaway Bride with a veil (cut from mosquito netting!), running outfit, and a bridal bouquet...
