Homecoming week.

Last week was homecoming.  Amber asked a boy named Andrew Simmons.  He's from Council Bluffs.  They are good friends, and know each other from Stake activities.   I was not excited to go looking for a dress.  It isn't very easy to find one that is modest.  I didn't really want to do any major alterations.  We went to a couple of stores with no luck.  A friend of mine suggested we go to Maurices.  I did remember seeing a couple of dresses the last time we were in the shop.  So we went.  This is what we found.  I was excited. It was long enough, and with a little silk shrug it covered her.  Best of all it was only 56$! 

And here we have Amber with her date.  It was nice that he could drive here himself. 

One of the dress-up days was pajama day.  Amber wore some silk camo pj's and her camo snuggie and her favorite teddy bear.
On the same Saturday as the homecoming dance, Amber had a marching band competition in Glennwood.  (it was a hectic day) She won, Outstanding soloist!  She has a great solo, and she just nailed it!  She was very happy.

And I had to put this in.  Our goat, Pippen, got his head stuck in a feed bag.  He was walking around bumping into things.  It was too funny.  Bret finally came to the rescue.
