Homecoming 2011

posted in family, kids |

Here in Texas, everything is big, including the annual tradition of the Homecoming mum. This photo is of the mum my daughter received today from her boyfriend and I would put it in the medium size category. It is fun and very festive and my daughter loves it! These are worn around the next all day during school and then to the football game. My daughter is in the marching band, so she will have this on while she’s playing her horn too.

Don’t worry, the guys aren’t left out, the receive a garter. I would also put the garter she gave him into the medium size category and he too loves it!

    Thank you for explaining these to me last year at this time–I had no idea what these were!! There was an article in the Chicago Tribune about these today. I guess they are catching on in some other states as well.
