Homecoming

We started out the homecoming week with one of my brothers, #21, football games. They won by along way. The boys had fun doing that. We missed my littlest brothers game that week because Tyler had school pictures the same day and we couldn't make it.

Thursday night we took the kids down and let them write their names on the street and watch the kids light the C. Then they got to walk over and see the big bonfire. They love doing this. Then we went back to Grandma's house were they called their dad to tell him all about it. It is funny the things that stick in a kids head.

He started of the next morning with the parade. They even had flag to wave that their cousin made for them. So here are the boys all excited to head out and catch the candy.

A few of the cousins, my sister and my kids that were there catching candy and watching the parade.

Elly loves to attach all the other kids, especially the ones her size and smaller.

Here is the football team. My brother is #4. We love going to watch him play.

Tyler and Rylee are watching the balloons float away.

Mason and Devan played football most of the time. They tackled each other so many times. They had a great time and played so good together.

Sometimes Mason thinks he is really tough. Here he is trying to get my sister down because she has the ball.

The homecoming football game can't be complete without holding the streamers for the football team to run through. My boys love doing this. It looks like every kid enjoys this part of the game. They stand there and wait and wait for the boys to come out of the locker room at half time. Then for some reason they think that we need to keep the streamers. Somehow they just have disappeared by the time the game is over.

I loved this picture of Mason. It is so him to me, he always has a ball in his hands.

One thing the kids love to do after the football game is over is play their own game on the field. They had a lot of fun together.

Tyler really got into the volleyball game. Now that he understands the score he loves to watch and see who wins.

We were going to watch my sister play in a volleyball game the next day but she couldn't play because she was sick so we just saw the two boys play. It was a great weekend and the kids had so much fun with their cousins.
