Brittany's Homecoming

Yesterday evening was homecoming night for Clay Battelle High School. There was a football game against Hundred High School, but the evenings festivities started off with a homecoming parade down route 7 with the band, cheerleaders, fire engines and the Homecoming Queen Candidates each riding atop a vehicle.

Grandpa John arranged for a brand new Mercedes convertible for Brittany to ride on. Brittany had a large contingent of family members there at the parade cheering her on and showing our support.

Once we arrived at the game, of course we had to watch Clay Battelle's complete and total demolition of Hundred, which was 28-0 at Halftime and ended up 49-0 as a final, before it was on with the halftime festivities.

As they called the five homecoming candidates out, Brittany was first followed by the other four girls who should have been the runners ups in this writers opinion, however with much sadness from her family and us calling for a recount the title of homecoming queen went to another girl. I told Robert he should have taken $100 Bills and bribed all the kids, I personally think there should have been a recount because the best looking girl was standing there without a tiara. I do have to confess that I am a little (OK a lot but give me a break) biased.

After halftime and the fixed homecoming election that Brittany did not win (did I mention I am a little biased) it was offf to change into her dress for the dance that was to follow the game. Brittany and Derrick were both dressed very nicely and should easily have been the best looking couple at the dance.

This however is the time for the kids, so all of old geezers walked back to our cars and headed home.

PS Michelle is making me pancakes and sausage with Butter Pecan syrup as I write this. She ROCKS!!!!
