we interrupt these vacation posts for homecoming weekend

friday afternoon, the parade began the festivities. olivia marched in the homecoming parade and twirled her flag for the band.


aaron walked in the parade with some of his co workers behind the heartland bank banner. amanda walked with him too, along with our pastors and their children. it was a lot of fun watching them be a part of the community.

rachel was showing her school spirit too. these are pictures of her at community night and the football game with her friends. i think they all had a lot of fun!


                                                                           she is so silly!




                                                     saturday was the homecoming dance
josiah and his girlfriend, kayla, they make quite a gorgeous couple, don't they?

whose handsome boy is this??

josiah and his friends that all went to the dance together


it was a fun weekend. all of us were involved in something going on in the community all weekend long.

Homecoming was always a big weekend when I was in high school too but we certainly didn't get all dressed up like that for the dance. They look very nice!! Glad everyone had fun.

Ooooh, I have so many wonderful memories of Homecoming! I was in the band/color guard like Olivia and loved marching in the parades! And the dances afterward were always so much fun! Glad everyone had such a good time!

It's been many moons since my own children graced the home with home-coming fever & fervor. I don't know who had more fun ... them or me.

Thank you for sharing your family's rights of passage. What fun!

Awesome photos! Thanks for sharing! My boys have homecoming this week coming up. In fact, Gunner was chosen to be Homecoming King.....woot woot woot! The only downside to that is I have to walk across the football field with him Friday night....and we all know how graceful I am.....not!


Again....beautiful children....love it!

Oh what fun all the pictures show! I love the homecoming pictures because it is always so much fun seeing young children dressed up and looking so nice. I love to see what the "in" trends are for this year. Great choices!

We have homecoming this week. Hoping it doesn't rain Friday!

This is the first town I have lived in that doesn't have a homecoming parade, though. I kind of miss it.

Great pictures!! You have beautiful kids. :) We have homecoming this week, but none of mine are in High School yet, so we will probably just do the parade (if it doesn't rain) and MAYBE the game. Maybe.
