Homecoming

Well, last weekend was homecoming at my two son’s high school.  This means there was a week of events at school and then homecoming Saturday.  All fine and good but the weather, for the first time in my memory, canceled the annual parade.

Homecoming week starts off with the Junior-Senior Reversal game.  The junior and senior girls play flag football.  Supposedly, the junior and senior boys are suppose to be cheerleaders but this year there were no cheerleaders.

Throughout the week, there were different spirit days – college shirt day, etc – ending with school colors day on Friday.  Friday was also a huge pep rally at the high school.

Saturday is normally a long day, all in town, for me and mine.  The weather this year did not allow for that.  The parade was canceled on Friday afternoon.  It was actually postponed and will be held October 18 – although I have recently voiced concerns over that date as it is PSAT test day. 

So when the fun and broken bones ended, we had won the football game.  The boys came home with time to shower and make themselves presentable for dates, dinner and a dance.
