Homecoming week...

This past week was Homecoming week. It was our first year to really be involved in all the fun of the week, since Kayla is now a freshman. It was fun. Memories were made. It wore this mom plum out. Of course I had to take a few pictures of each day. Here are just a few of the hundred plus pictures taken during the week.

MONDAY:
It was dress up as a cartoon character day. We didn't put much money or planning into this one. She put on an old princess dress she had from a previous year, got a black wig to be different and decided to either be "Mother Gothel from Tangled" or a black haired princess of some sorts. After wearing the black wig for the day, I finally convinced her that she would not look good with black hair. (You know how you always wish, as a teenager, for what you don't have...) I personally like her blonde curls.

TUESDAY:
Duct tape/trash bag day. We made a shirt late Monday night. I thought it turned out cute for a couple of hours work. You should have seen all the creative outfits at school...WOW!

WEDNESDAY:
Battle of the classes day. Kayla's freshman shirt. CUTE!




THURSDAY:
Blue and white day (school colors). She painted a shirt, an old pair of jeans and a friend even painted her hair at school.






She played at the bonfire. (A friend took this picture for me.)
FRIDAY:
Dress up day. Wear your church clothes.



FRIDAY NIGHT:
Game time. My girl marched and played her heart out. Isn't she cute in her hat?



The last picture of the night. My babies. Oh how I love them to pieces. I am blessed.

What did you do last week?

We have Homecoming this next week. Kayla did a great job dressing up! I used to always love Homecoming week. I love the last pic of your kiddos. They seem to have a really special relationship. :)
