Homecoming in the North Woods

[FinsnFur]

I wanted to share the results of the 5 hour road trip back up north for my youngest to attend homecoming with her friends this past weekend. She was so thrilled to get to do this and I pretty much owe it to you guys for making it possible. So thanks again.

I didnt know it until we got there Friday night, but she didn’t tell anyone she was coming Friday. She told them all she’d be up there Saturday.
So we get to the Highschool around 7:00 and walk to the Gymnasium door as the cheerleaders are lining up inside for the …well for the whatever it is they do at the Pep Rally.
One girl looked over at the door and saw us and then seen Kristee and she screamed at the top of her lungs and ran towards us. The other girls looked over at the distraction and then the line formation fell part as all those cheerleaders charged us like a stampede, screaming their way towards us to greet her. I thought they were coming for me!!!
Then I remembered Kristee was standing in front of me and she used to be a cheerleader with them : (
They told her she could get in uniform and join in if she wanted to. But after a few shed tears and some quick blinks she was thrilled and more then happy doing it in her jeans and shirt…it was pretty cool.


Whoa...this first pic turned out like genuine crap








and of course, the boyfriend playing football.

That's a beautiful young lady you have there. Glad you all had a good time.

Looks like a 10 hour drive that paid off big time.  We can tell that you are still reliving having a team of cheerleaders charging you.      Maybe in your dreams.

I have to agree that your have very photogenic daughters.  (You can read that as cute or beautiful, unless you are over protective.)  As for that first shot, maybe there was something in your eye as you watched your daughter.

You have beautiful girls, Jim.  And what a great reception you described!

Thanks guys, they must get their beautifulness from they Papa
And yes Jerry the charging incident was kinda fun while it lasted but it was short lived for me. Story of my life

[Hawks Feather]

Take whatever joy you can - short lived or not.
