Homecoming Dates & Dance!

Because Hayley is Homecoming Royalty, she had to go to the Homecoming Dance, but this presented a problem because she's not 16 yet. Jordan is a close family friend and he and Hayley have been great friends for along time. Jordan hangs out with Parker a lot too and is at our house nearly every day. He asked me if it would be ok if he took Hayley to the dance...and could I just take them. He was so cute...I couldn't say no. He was so sweet to her.
Here I've just dropped them off on the curb. They are ready for some fun!

Hayley and I picked up Jordan at his home. He did great, matching pale yellow shirt - he looked awesome and oh the sparkle in his eye when Hayley walked in. It was too fun!

Jordan puts on Hayley's corsage - it was so beautiful. I didn't get a shot of her putting on his flower...oops!

This group of 8 had a great time together. The other 3 couples had a day long day date. But Katie had some family things to do and Parker had a Marching Band Show - so they just got together for dinner & the dance.

Katie loves this! So fun!

Parker and Katie...such a cute couple! They are great friends and decided to do a re-do since they went together last year!

As pretty as she is here...Can you believe he made her dig in a can of Crisco to find his name in the Ingredients. She fell for it to and dug thorugh it, but he'd written his name across the "ingredients list" on the outside of the can. Mean, but so fun! She was excited.

She answered him at the Mr. PHS pageant. After his talent part of the competition she had the MC's announce that the certain someone he asked to Homecoming said YES!

So fun together. Katie makes me laugh so hard - she is a fun fun girl. Parker loves being with her - they have so much fun!

Dinner was a very good General Tso's chicken salad with all the toppings dreamed of. They had cheesy bread and cake. Linda & Lori did all the decorations and tried to make it fun for them. They dined to my 80's music on Records! Turns out, they Love Beach Boys Endless Summer!

Idaho State University Homecoming Parade

Sat. Sept. 25th - ISU's Homecoming Parade and Poky's Homecoming Royalty got to be in it. Here is the Homecoming Queen (Tavia) and her 1st (Emily) & 2nd (Emerald) Assistants. They flex their muscles and show their real grit! Fun Girls
Hayley and Mackenzie had a dead on tie for Sophmore Duchess. They are super good friends so this was a huge relief to them. They are riding in Mackenzie's grandpa's bug that he fixed up. They had a great time!

That bug was so cute! Oh, and so are the girls!
This is the Freshman Lady and Junior Princess.
The sign says it all! What a fun day! Hayley loved her very fun and special Homecoming Week! Now to get some rest...big dance tonight!

Homecoming Week Fun

Homecoming Royalty taking a pose outside.
Following the Royalty Assembly - where they were all announced, they take a photo op before heading out to the windy day.

Roytalty or not...she has to show the fun and casual side of herself! Yeah, teacher over royalty was not too happy with her. I thought it was fun.

Here they are at the assembly where they were all announced to the school. Junior Princess on far left, Freshman Lady in black dress below. First attendant to queen in white & black, Queen in chair, 2nd attendant to her right. Sophmore Duchesses on the far right. There was a tie so both Hayley and Mackenzie got to be royalty together. This made them very happy!

Following the Royalty Assembly Parker gets a quick picture with Hayley. This was her big day, but his will come soon! They are best of friends and love hanging out together.
During Color Guard practice Parker finds his own fun...if you can call this fun. He's the beast on the bottom holding Jordan and Conner on his shoulders. He even takes 5 steps away from the wall so when they come crashing down they don't bang their heads on that cement wall. The looks on each boys face tells it all!

This is him doing his Beatboxing thing at a dance held in Old town Pocatello. But the big news is on Wednesday night of Homecoming Week PHS held a "Mr PHS Pageant". Parker participated and walked away with "Mr Talent PHS" for the night! Pretty exciting. On Friday at the Homecoming Game Pep Assembly he got to do his thing in front of the whole school. The screams were so loud and he has landed himself into quite a bit of popularity! What a fun senior year for him...he is amazing!
