mercer homecoming

Mercer's Homecoming Carnival is right up there with Kate's birthday & Xmas!

Thursday nite Kate bought an armband for 3 hours of rides, with a break to dance on stage with her Brownie troop as part of the "hometown entertainment." Friday nite was another armband. Saturday a.m. the Brownies ran the baby show, we came home, then took KJ to school to get suited up to march in the Big Parade, came back after Kevin & got him as close to the square as we could, then I parked the truck & caught up with them, carrying a chair & footstool 4 kevin. Kate got invited to ride on one of the church floats with friends....I always find it ironic that I spend so much $ on sunblock & we always forget to put it on & get fried at Homecoming...KJ bought an armband & went to the afternoon carnival with a friend, then I took the friend home, & Kate & I were back at the nite time carnival. Sunday a.m. KJ & I helped Athletic Boosters pick up trash around the square. He was also a good sport & did a grocery run with me today, we met several of the rides leaving town on our way back. And another Homecoming has come & gone....
