Homecoming

My girls could not have had more different homecoming experiences. Both were so fun, and both made me giggle. Matthew asked Cambrie to go as his date.  She said yes, then she wanted to say no, then she thought she would just go with some friends, then she decided to go with Matthew after all.  Then there was the night of the dance itself.  Matthew's parents told him that because he had asked Cambrie as a date then he needed to go pick her up.  She did NOT want to be picked up, and so she laid on the floor in front of all my vacuuming in protest.  He was so sweet.  He came to the door, brought her a corsage, and even posed for a quick picture with her.  They are the best friends, but they have no idea how to do this "going on a date" thing, and it was adorable watching them navigate it.  

They went up to Matthew's house for dinner and pictures with their group.  It was sadly lacking in females, so Marlene and Cambrie had to have each other's back.  

McKenzie, meanwhile, had a whole night planned with over twenty other kids.  They all met up in Anthem for a full photo shoot.  Unlike Cambrie would didn't want any pictures at all, McKenzie and her friends invited all of the parents and we spent over an hour up there taking pictures.

Both girls said that the dance was the most fun they've ever had at a school dance. For some reason the atmosphere was just electric and they danced a lot longer than they were planning.  Their after parties went late, (thank heavens for a husband who can stay up late to retrieve children, and for a date who brought Cambrie home 😄)  I'm just glad they both had such a great time.
