Keaton's Homecoming

Keaton asked Melissa to Homecoming, here's their picture:

Keaton made a good choice by attending priesthood session and then going to the Homecoming festivities =)

More Homecoming Pics

For an October day in Seattle, it sure was NICE weather =)

Ben & Kelsey, Olivia & Keaton:

Handsome!
Ahh, there's Clara's date Dallin:
Keaton & Olivia
Olivia's dad has a few pics but hasn't sent them to me yet - so there will be a few more coming.

Homecoming Pictures

All the girl's corsages:

Danee & Brady (don't forget to notice her corsage I made):

And without the head tilts ;)

I guess they were supposed to do a silly pose - this is Danee picking Brady's nose:

Olivia & Keaton (and I made Olivia's corsage too):

Here's Eli & Nellie and Danee & Brady - they were picked up at the same house:

The guys - Cody was a Homecoming Prince - but they all look sharp! Looks like the front row was posing and the back row was being goofy:

And they still can't be serious - Brady noticed he was the only one not wearing black:

Closer to being serious . . . but not quite:

The girls - Clara was a Homecoming Princess, but they all look radiant:

They did a progressive dinner - started out with an appetizer and pictures at Dallin's house, came to our house for dinner and then to Nick's for dessert. Some of the group went to the dance and some of the group went to a fun center. Then they met back up for a movie at Dallin's and called it a night around 2 am. Everyone said they had a blast!

A really great group of LDS kids:

Everyone was dressed so modestly - it was so refreshing compared to the standard!

Corsages

I don't know how much corsages cost these days, but for $2 I bought a wrist band found in the wedding section:

And minimal tulle, ribbon and beads cost $1.50 for both corsages. The flowers were in the Christmas aisle and had sparkles and glitter on them - perfect - and cost $1.20 each because I only used 1/4 of each stem.

Pink is the color Brady gets to wear and so I made this for Danee:

Keaton is wearing silver, but there's also purple in Olivia's dress:

Lesson learned from shopping with the boys at a craft store: don't buy 'other' supplies while trying to convince boys that a silk corsage will look just as elegant as real flowers. I purchased colored pipe cleaners and they told me 'that's not going to look good mom'!

They were worried, but now they're not ;) I should twist a pipe cleaner in the corsage just to tease them ;)
