I can't believe I have a teenager! Mason is really enjoying Franklin Jr. High. He is confident, easy going, and friendly. I'm so happy he goes to school with so many good kids and awesome friends.
Mason came home from school this week and announced he wanted to dress up as Gale from the Hunger Games novels for his School Halloween Party this Friday night. I looked up pictures online and told him we could totally make that happen. I asked him what made him pick that particular character. He explained some girls at school told him he totally looked like Gale and should dress up like that. Further into the conversation I discovered a particular girl was dressing up as Katniss. Mason has not been shy about his feelings for this specific girl at school and basically the whole school knows that he likes her. He has a couple classes with her and I've seen her myself at a couple school functions she seems to be a nice girl and kind to Mason. I chuckled to myself at the next part of our conversation. As I've worked on and talked about Mason's costume he mentioned to me that he could just be Pita (the other main Male character in this book series) I disagreed and told Mason to be Gale, he (Mason) looks more like Gale and that made more sense than trying to die his hair blonde. After thinking about this for a couple minutes Mason asks "But doesn't Katniss end up with Pita?" This had me laughing out loud. I love this kid. he really does shoot for the moon sometimes.
In order left to right: Prim (Katniss's sister), Kelsey as Katniss, Quinn as Pita, Mason as Gale. They even won the prize for Best Duo/group at the party.
