On Friday, we went to the Homecoming game at my high school alma mater. Did I mention it was raining? We were going early for the Homecoming festivities because three of my cousins were on the court and one was a nominee for Queen. It was pouring down rain, so we went ahead armed with a beach towel, three cushions and two umbrellas. Unfortunately, we needed them all. Jessica did win Homecoming Queen and she, Kalli and Chaney all looked beautiful. It did rain a little on them while they were on the field, but it in no way diminished their beauty!
Ella and I decided to brave the line and head to the concession stand for some cheese fries and gatorade. It was a HUGE mistake. Despite how unmistakably adorable we look in that photo {wink, wink} we were a mess after this adventure. We walked through mud up to our ankles to get from the bleachers to the concession area and were a mess. A friend carried Ella back to the stands while I manned the food and umbrella. I managed to get her feet and sandals cleaned up, but mommy just wore muddy feet and flip flops the rest of the evening. I’m sorry I didn’t take a picture of that! It was awfully pretty… or was it pretty awful?
