Homecoming

The Franklin Flyers celebrated homecoming this week and we joined in on many of the festivities. On Friday, we went to the parade with Mom, Shannon, Jes and Ella. The girls loved the floats and worked hard at collecting candy. They worked so hard that they lost interest in eating the candy and many times missed what was going on around them! Lola's favorite float consisted of four Harleys cruising down Main Street. Daddy took her to see the motorcycles after the parade and she hung out with all the bikers who got a kick out of her enthusiasm. She loves motorcycles and Kasey thinks this is a great reason for us to own one!

After the parade, we went to the pep rally downtown where Lola and Ella danced along with the music. Later that night we went to the football game where the Flyers easily won. This was Jen's first night out alone with the girls as Kasey was reffing a football game out of town. The girls did very well. Olivia slept through most of the game after being passed around to most all of the women spectators! Lola played with many of her little friends and danced along with the UNK drumline (she really enjoys dancing!), but the most exciting part of her night was when Uncle Robbi showed up after halftime. After the game we all went to Grandma and Papa's house for coffee, apple pie and bath time for Ella, Lola and Olivia. Needless to say, the girls slept well that night.

Of course everyone forgot to pack their camera so I only caught a few pictures on my phone. Enjoy.......


If I wave at a float.......


...the people throw candy!

Lola and Ella worked so hard at collecting candy.


They had a "heavy" reward!


Olivia happily lounged with Grandma.
