American teenager Rain Price was waved off to school from the bus stop outside his house , by his dad , every day for a whole school year .And Dale found an international audience for his dressing up , too , as each day Rochelle took photo of her husband in fancy dress and put it on their blog , waveatthebus.blogspot.com , which became a hit on the internet .One day he was a king waving his sword and shield , the next a chef in his hat and apron , the following a pirate .For the final farewell on the last day of school Dale dressed up as a pirate and stood next to sign which said : ' It's been fun waving at the bus .Like many proud parents , Rochelle and Dale , Rain's mum and dad , sent him off to school with a big wave from the doorstep .Dale even got other members of the family involved , using Rain's younger brother to play Batman alongside his Robin .Amazingly , Dale only spent $ 50 on all of the costumes .He got loads of costumes from the family fancy - dress collection and then there were several friends and neighbours who were happy to help .Then there was Elvis and Wonder Woman .Have a great summer .
