Homecoming Dance

Brienna asked Jake to the Homecoming dance (she didn't want to go to the dance alone) 
Brienna & Jake Mickelsen
after the football game, they went to Amber's house to eat tacos, & then came to our house to change.
Zane didn't want to go to the dance, but since he was royalty, he showed up.
 Zane said he wasn't going to dance (or even go in from the hallway), but he showed up on the dance floor.
 Jake & Brienna dancing
 Homecoming Royalty (from L to R--Freshman thru Senior)
 Boys & girls:  Payton, Zane, Jorge, Chuy, Jennifer, Mariah, Dulce, Kami
 Zane & Dulce--Duke & Dutchess
 Zane letting his true colors show.
I have to admit--my son is quite handsome!
After the dance, Brienna & Jake went to Amber's for a "paint" party.  The walls were covered with plastic & then the kids threw paint at each other (and silly string).  
Brienna said this was the "funnest" (I know that's not a word) Homecoming week ever!

More Homecoming Football Game

There was a Junior High game before the Homecoming game--Callum is the manager.
 
Ben rode the tandem bike behind Dad (Rusty) to the game.
Emmalee "misses" having a turn--but she rode her own bike.
The national anthem--I just love seeing the football player lined up.
our band.--Brienna was a bit cold.  She says it hard to play a cold flute.
Ethan--keeping track of the downs.
#61
Uncle Ken & Uncle Skeeter (Rusty's brothers) were camping up Stoddard Creek (20 minutes north) so they came down to watch the game.
visiting with the Grovers.
Ben riding home on the bike (and Emmalee up ahead in the purple coat)
What a cutie!  My little man is growing up too quickly!
The teams walking back to the school to change & eat dinner.
