Sunset Homecoming 2011

Emily is enjoying her experience at a large high school. She follows the football team closely, attending home games and watching news reports about the Apollos' performance. She even played football with her PE class this fall. I think she understands the game better than I do now - of course, that's not saying a lot...

Sunset's Homecoming game, preceded by a Spaghetti Feed, was Friday night. They played Southridge and beat them 34-24. Good game, except for the rain. Fall in Portland - what can you do?

The Homecoming dance was Saturday night - Emily's first formal dance. Sarah and I had a good time getting Emily ready.



Her dress fit like a dream and looked like it was made for her.

  

She and Sydney carpooled and met more friends there.

 

The theme was animals. Emily said the Commons was so transformed into a jungle, it was unrecognizable. What fun! Lots of animal print dresses (many pretty skanky-looking, unfortunately) were in evidence. Happy to note that our girls were not among those...

Emily and her friends had a good time dancing, hanging out, and just being teenagers. Yeah!
