Homecoming

Homecoming was last night. Tanner was the ring leader of a group with 4 other couples. Gavin Thatcher was in his group.  His Aunt has a beautiful house up above Coronodo High School and a big, beautiful backyard.  She let us have dinner up there for the group.  Cynjyn and Maggie were the servers.   

Tanner's date was Emily Olds.

The group was Dustin Marshall and Katie Barker, Aaron Schwarze and McKenna Borla, Emily and Tanner, Miranda Quinton and Bryant Nielson. and Ashley Eddington and Gavin Thathcer.

Gavin's Aunt Wendy has a beautiful landscaped "hill" leading up to a golf course. The kids loved playing around on it, and we got a lot of fun pictures.

Toni had the table set simple, but beautiful with Wendy's gold plates.  We served them dinner starting with grapes, strawberries and cheese and crackers and my slush punch while they waited for their turn for pictures.  Then we served them ceasar salad with some plates of three different kinds of breads.  Then for the main course, they had pork loin, crockpot potatoes, and green beans. 

They sure loved posing at the top of the hill.

 After they kids left, Maggie, Cynjyn and I walked to the top of the hill and enjoyed the view of the city lights.

 After dinner, they were supposed to go to the planitarium and do a star gazing show, but they didn't make it in time, so they just went to a park and talked. Earlier in the day they all went to Bite of Las Vegas which is an all day celebration and they saw Philip Phillips perform. Anyway, after their non visit to the planitarium, they came back to Toni's and we had her walk way lined with our Christmas lanterns and the back yard set up as a dance floor and they danced a little and talked a lot and played some group games.

 We filled balloons with glow sticks to put around the "dance floor".  They looked pretty cool.

 Earlier in the week, Toni, Cheryl and I got together with Debbie Witt who helped us make the corsages for our son's dates.  (Toni's, mine, Cheryl's).

 We were all thrilled with how they turned out.

  About half way through the dancing and games, we served them cheesecake and then I went home and they continued to party.  Tanner was home by midnight and had a great time.  So did Cynjyn, Maggie, Toni and I!!
