Homecoming

This past weekend was Mesa High School homecoming.  Now generally we don't go to homecoming but this year we did.  Scott figured since we are back in Arizona and we have a child who goes to Mesa High we should go (if for no other reason to do the loving parental thing of embarrassing our child).  

I keep telling people that they really need to read the back of their child's birth certificates.  It clearly states (of course it is in ink that only a parent can read) that it is our civil duty as parents to embarrass your children at every opportunity.

Well Scott was able to see many people for the Hare Band of 1991.  He had a good time and Scott was glad that we went to the game.  The team lost their homecoming and their band is extremely small but all in all it was still a good time.  I feel the best part of the entire night was that not only were Scott and I shouting at Alexis to get her attention and to let everyone know who was in the immediate area that we love her but the group we were with joined in on the "parental fun."

Next year we will have another child in high school who can share in Alexis joy of knowing her parents are in the stands.  Only next year we will be celebrating Scott's 20th reunion.  I can hardly believe that we have been out of high school for almost 20 years.

Carry On Mesa High!  Carry On!
