Centennial High School had their first Homecoming on Saturday. First because this was the first year that there was anyone to “come home” since last year was the first class of graduating seniors. Previous years events were always referred to as “Forthcoming”. Sam and Alex both went. Sam with Gabby and Alex, well, Alex went with two girls. Don’t ask. Anyway, you knew I’d have to take a few photos before they left. Even convinced Gabby and her parents to come over so I could get a picture of Sam and Gabby before they left. Once you get to the first picture click to see the other two.

Thought it was time to put the drums up for sale and get some more camera equipment. Bought a studio light, some backdrops and a backdrop stand. Set them up in the theater upstairs to play around with. Sam was being my test model when Alex came in and, well….the silliness ensued!

Had a GREAT surprise party for Alex last Friday night. Ann connected with several of his friends a “conspired” to get them to invite some of his other friends to Strikz bowling alley. His buddy Bobby convinced him to go bowling and we all yelled surprise. He had NO clue. It was great!

Alex was inducted into the National Honor Society tonight. It was a nice ceremony with our mayor, Mike Simpson, as the guest speaker. One hundred and twenty seven kids were inducted into this years class. More photos are available by clicking on the image below.
