Homecoming 2010

With Homecoming, comes Homecoming games....and boy was it loud and fun! I have never been up to the High School during games till now! There was a lot of energy in that gym. And how much fun for these kids, to have a day to bond together and work together as a team, to win for their grade! They all purchase class shirts and get all decked out in red/black/white. So much fun!These kids are watching the lip sync competition. 1 group competes, from each class that lasts a max of 4 minutes. They were all good and you could tell the kids put numerous hours in after school practicing...but the Seniors sync was outstanding....the best!Seniors pulling in the tug-o-war..always a favorite! (Tyler is not in there)Tyler participating in the wheelbarrow races.He's the barrow here....Tyler doing the three legged raceTroy watching his class compete. That's Jordan, his cousin, to the left of him. Jordan is a big boy and Troy is little for his class....lol!Troy in a hula hoop raceThe football players on a KC fire truck in the Homecoming parade! We love this about our small town.....we can shut the town down for an hour to run a parade through main street! Yes! What a great place to live! Oh....and did I mention they won!
Up next...Homecoming Dance pictures!

Brings back memories of the old Gold and Purple days! Go Eagles!

I did not see lots of other parents there. Did you sneak in?

It's so strange to me to know that parents can still attend school events like this. Besides the immense securtiy processes one has to go through to get into the building, our schools are so large that they have to divide each grade into groups just for parents to see music programs, etc. It's nice to know that there are still small towns out there that remind me of my hometown. I have great memories from homecoming, which include you!

Other parents were there....I wasn't alone. We don't have tight security. I didn't even stop by the office. It is a lot like SHS size wise....remember we shut down Main street for a parade!
