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!

We had a great weekend celebrating Sam’s confirmation. Sam was very patient being the center of attention!Aunt Meg flew in from Tampa to be Sam’s sponsor. Peter and Amy came over from Fort Worth. Grandma and Grandpa came from Greensboro. Uncle David came from Charlotte. The Calvano’s (minus Joe) were here on Sunday along with our friends the Toledo’s.Thanks to everyone for being a part of this important event in Sam’s life.
