Last night VCFA's fourth semester class threw a costume party to honor the graduating seniors. We all got to dress up as our favorite book character from childhood. I went as none other than Jo from LITTLE WOMEN. Louisa Mae Alcott is my hero and she is Jo. When I was in second grade, I discovered INVINCIBLE LOUISA--an old biography about Louisa as a child with a voracious need to tell stories. I loved her and still do.
The party was hopping and a few of the first semester students agreed to let me post pictures of them here. Thanks! My battery was low so the flash wasn't working, but you get the idea.

| Meet the Pippi's and Fancy Nancy. True confession. I made my dress in high school for the 4-H Dress Review. |
 |
| Ah, now here's all three Pippi's in the shot. True confession number #2, I won the 4-H Dress Review. |
 |
| Ah, those darn Pippi's. Obviously Team Jacob! |
 |
| Okay, from right to left. Me as Jo March, Harry, Hermione, and the end papers from A VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR. Bella and Edward were there, too, but they just stood around glaring at people. |
