Emily wins as representative for 10th grade at homecoming game

WOW! What a night!! Last night was our homecoming game. We won 31-14. We haven't had rain in MONTHS and when I say months, I mean, MONTHS ... what does it do last night?! DOWN POUR!! But we still had a great time!!

While I was at the MOA Emily called to tell me she had been chosen as one of the 10 girls to be on the 10th grade homecoming court. A few days later, she said they narrowed it down to 4 girls. She was again "chosen". So as soon as I got back, we went searching for the perfect dress. She actually came home with not 1 dress, but 3 dresses!!! She finally decided on the teal dress so I will return the other 2 dresses. Last night during halftime all the girls were to walk up on the stage and wait to see if they were voted on. 9th grade had 3 picked, 10th grade had 4 picked, 11th grade had 4 picked and 12th grade had 4 picked plus the Senior Queen. We were all so excited when they called EMILY THACKER for 10th grade. They each got a dozen yellow roses and a crown. They will ride in the Christmas parade in late November. Hmmm, will I have to buy ANOTHER outfit for that to make sure she is warm enough? LOL

It was a great day for all of us! Enjoy the photos!!
