Aaron and Naim and I went to see Willy Wonka at NWCT with the VH crew. Since I was the trip leader, they HAD to check in with me and I found every single one of them. Funny, that. But it was a good turn-out and we got the front two rows. We let all the kids sit in the first row and we sat behind them.
John Ellingson played WW of course, and at the talk back time, he chose Aaron (who was wearing Naim’s pink dress, polka dotted leggings, black and red shoes and his dinosaur backpack he wouldn’t take off. When called on, he held up some kind of bakugon dude he had and told J.E. that the bakugon came to the show, too. To which J.E. replied, “Well, I hope he enjoyed the show, now do you have a question?” Aaron then looked at the actor playing Augustus Gloop and said, “How did he get so fat?!” Thank god it was all done for comedy and was over-the-top fatness. The kid explained the process of creating a fat suit, and Aaron was satisfied. Then the actor that played Grampa Joe came down and high-fived each of the VH front row kids, so it was all good.
Also, Naim did finish his reading in the morning before we left. He did the Sylvan review lesson, Letters from Aa to Ff.
