Moments in Time

Homecoming Weekend is one of the fun things about living in a college town. One of the things that made our October so much fun (but so busy!) was Homecoming. Jess marched in the public school homecoming parade on Friday of Homecoming Weekend. She got her picture in the local newspaper. This was vindication of sorts for Jess.... When she attended Twilight Camp as a Brownie, she got her picture in the paper, too - only it was of the back of her head! Then, to make matters worse, Ali got her picture on the FRONT PAGE of the local paper a few yeas ago! A few weeks ago, Jess told me that Ali had her picture on the front page but she's had her picture in the paper twice, so that makes them "even". Not much competition between those two, huh?! :-) Here's Jess:

The following day was the annual MU Homecoming Parade. (Yep, Jess marched in that, too.) Ali loves to see all the floats, etc., but mostly she loves the candy that gets thrown to the audience! Here she is awaiting the start of the parade:



Here are a few photos from the MU parade:
