Brents Homecoming 2011!!!!
Brent decided to go to homecoming and told me Wednesday when Homecoming was on Saturday! I was a nervous mom! Ii remember my homecomings and really wasn't sure I wanted Brent to go! He insisted and like always I caved! He knew he couldn't go with just a girl and I talked to my friend who's son Jalani is friends with Brent and he was going by himself! I asked if she could take them to dinner at Boppin' Bo's where I was working to eat and then I would take them to the dance and home and the end. She agreed and with butterflies in my stomach the day came! Brent Bought Bailey the girl who was going with him a flower and got all his clothes ready and I headed for work. Shortly after I got there Jalanis mom called she said, "I know you don't want Brent to go on a double date but is it okay if Jalani brings a friend." I was stuck she was Brents ride and it was to late to get my shift covered I was stressing and with a heavy heart because Brent can't date till he's 16 I said "yeah that's okay."
I was so relieved when Jalani brought along Carl one of Brents others friends! They went as Brent and Baileys Bodyguards and acted the part well! They ate at Boppin' BO's and then I took them to the dance they all had fun and I am glad that Brent went it was a great night!
I will say homecoming has changed (which means I am old) when I was in school no one would go to homecoming with out a date as I went to pick up the kids from the dance and then walked in to watch them clean up. Over half the kids went with a group of friends. there was groups of girls or boys with out dates just going to hang out and have fun! I wish homecoming would of been like that when I was at school instead of a date date that you had to pretend you liked the person you were with!
Great night Great fun and Brent loved it!!
And now, in 18 years his kids can look at his pictures and laugh at how he looks like our kids do now!! Love you!!
