Homecoming

 This year on homecoming we had many firsts:

1. Jakob's first time to ask a girl to homecoming.

Jakob asked Lanie to homecoming this year. She is Nash's little sister. I was super shocked when I found out he had asked a girl. well he didn't actually ask her, his friend Hayden asked for him. Lanie's mom texted me to let me know he had asked her and I couldn't believe it. When I picked him up the first thing he asked me was "where do I have to take her?" So I don't think he actually knew what he was getting himself into. They didn't even talk to each other when we went to her house to deliver her mum in fact, Jakob had me carry hers in.

 2. Our fist time to take pictures in front of our new fireplace.

We always take important event pictures in front of our fireplace. It was exciting to take pictures in front of our new fireplace but at the same time it was sad. I love our new home but it still doesn't feel quite like home.




3.  Samuel's first time to wear a garter.

We had a mum/garter making party at our new house. We had Chrisee, Kelly and Cassie and their kids out to make them. We had a great time but I never knew it would take so long to make them, but they turned out excellent and it was fun to visit with the ladies while we made them. Samuel didn't wear his long but he looked handsome and so grown up.

5. The first time Kelley, Keeler and Kallahan came to homecoming.
Kelley came for the weekend so she came to the homecoming pep rally so she could see the kids and take homecoming pictures for me. We loved having her and her precious little kids. Keeler told Jakob after the pep rally "that was the best FOOTBALL game I have ever been to."
6. The first time Homecoming was delayed due to rain.
Jakob and Jacey both had friends spend the night on homecoming. We went to the game and before the first quarter was over it started to rain. We were all send to the gym to wait but after waiting we decided to go to Brice and Chrisee's and wait there. We visited at their house until 9:00 and it was still lightning so we decided to head home. The game did resume at 9:30 and Claude won 18-7.
What an exciting homecoming. Glad this busy week is over and school can get back to normal and I am sure the teachers are really glad.
