Reformation Day

Most people know October 31st as Halloween but it is also the day that is celebrated as Reformation Day. This is the day that Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis to the door of his Catholic church. He wanted to reform the Catholic church but ended up being excommunicated and the Protestant movement began.

The school that Sue teaches at and the girls attend, The River Academy, celebrates Reformation Day with costumes and activities from the early 16th century. Here are my girls in their costumes for the day.

That's totally cool. I guess I never put two and two together but ya...that looked like it was a fun and interesting way to celebrate.
