Homecoming week!

 With all the craziness in the world right now we were absolutely grateful to have a week to celebrate all the things that are great in our little town: like teenagers and sports and friendships and costumes and Halloween and sunshine and family!

The week started out SO, SO cold... there is nothing fun about watching a JV football game in 10 degree weather, I can't imagine it's much better to play?! (It sure was pretty though...)

But temps were better by the Homecoming parade on Friday and everyone loved cheering on the kids. I especially loved seeing my 3 boys in the parade:

Sam as a hovering ghost in the 8th grade Student Council float...

Hamp riding on the traditional fire truck with the football team...

and John-Jefferson on the Homecoming Court for the Junior class!

I just love all these faces:

Everything culminated under the Friday night lights with a winning football game and homecoming royalty! I loved watching Hamp kickoff, punt and even score several extra points!

And of course, I am so proud of John-Jefferson for not only being nominated for homecoming court, but voted 1st attendant by his peers! What a testament to the positive impression he has made on everyone here with his sense of humor and friendly spirit.
