Senior Night

Senior Night! I can't believe we're here already! I have a feeling I'll be saying that a lot this year...We got the stadium decorated for the boys and before the game, Owen escorted Pat and I onto the field while the announcer talked about his future plans (college, business degree etc). Then they got started with the game. The boys played hard but it was a tough team and ultimately they lost. Such a bummer but they had to rally because we had pizza and desserts and gift baskets and families waiting to celebrate them. We hung out for a bit and the coach said some really nice things about each boy. I was very close to crying but no tears fell that night. We'll see how I do at the last game...what a bittersweet time!

Homecoming!

So many pictures for this one! Owen's last homecoming dance and Paige's first and of course they couldn't make it easy on us by getting pictures at the same spot. Owen had a game at noon but got ready quickly so he could be to his friends house in time to go downtown for pictures and dinner. They took pictures in the Flats in the same spot as last year and then got dinner at Margaritaville. I think they stayed at the dance for an hour and then went to a friend's house to finish out the night.

In the meantime, Paige was getting ready with her friends at our house. She had gotten her hair done that morning and didn't like it so she had to redo it! But they still had time to put together really cute flower bouquets and eat some snacks before going to Coe Lake. After pictures they got dinner at Maya and went to the dance for an hour or two. She also went to a friend's house after and then the girls came back to our house for a sleepover

 

Homecoming Cheer

The Freshman cheerleaders got the opportunity to cheer at the Homecoming game this year so Paige got to see what it felt like to cheer on a Friday night for a big crowd! Her duties started even earlier because they had to do a dance/cheer at the tailgate outside of the school and then they headed over. It was so fun watching her and you could tell it was so fun to cheer in front of the other students. So much more energy at a Varsity game!! The theme was color wars and the freshman color was grey so they were given new bows to wear. Seniors wore blue so Owen was there representing in the crowd!
