We made it through the 4th grade history banquet. Yes, the costume was finished about 45 minutes before the banquet. He did a great job. His speech was memorized as was the preamble to the Declaration of Independence. It was about 5 minutes of completely memorized speeches for him to stand up and give in front of about a hundred people. I love it that he is so used to this that it is no longer a big deal. During his first history banquet in 1st grade, he forgot his speech and fell off the stage... twice. My how far we have come! Thank God it's over.
