It’s Homecoming week at the high school – something I always wondered about when I was a student there.  Do alumni actually come home to go to this game?  Is there much more different about on a bigger level besides the current “homecoming court” “pep assemblies” and “floats” (which they no longer have…fondly remember the hard work put into our infamous sophomore float that had a culinary motif and “Fork the Eagles” as the slogan…we thought we were being very creative!).
As an alumni, it’s exciting to see my kids get so pumped up for the games.  Trey is a die hard Spartan fan and won’t miss a home game.  He truly would go to all the away games if someone would take him.  He LOVES the idea that one day he will be a Spartan.   The football players are so cool to him and the whole game day atmosphere is right up his alley.
I took him to the homecoming pep assembly today and he was in heaven.  Sprayed his hair blue, wore his jersey and soaked it all in. Go Spartans!
