Last week was a BIG week! It was Edgewater Homecoming week and Bekah was busy, busy. Bekah is amazing, she really stayed on top of everything that was going on all week and enjoyed doing so. As a cheerleader, it was her week to represent the school! Sunday, we built the Homecoming float at the house, the girls came over to help decorate, eat pizza and practice their bon-fire routine. It was fun spending time with the girls. Monday kicked off Spirit week with "Style Switch" day, Bekah dressed in clothing she normally would not dress in, she called her look "nerdy" however, she looked cute. The clothes she wore were not the hottest look, but she pulled it off! On Tuesday, it was "Twin" day and all the Varsity Cheerleaders wore the Varsity away football jerseys, jeans and the Varsity garter. Of course she looked cute! Tuesday night was the Homecoming parade down Edgewater Drive. Rich drove the truck pulling the float with the Seniors on it and the rest of the girls walked behind it doing their cheers and tossing candy. They looked great! After the parade, there was the powder puff game and the bon-fire where the team performed.
Wednesday was hillbilly day, luckily Bekah had overall shorts she could wear with her Dad's flannel shirt! Thursday, was Hippie Day and Friday was the Homecoming game, so Bekah wore her cheerleading uniform (with the Football Jersey as the top) The game was a lot of fun, the cheerleaders looked great and all squads performed. Unfortunately, we lost the football game. But the Cheerleaders did GREAT!
Saturday was the biggest day of all, the DANCE!
Bekah started the day with getting her nails done, then it was off to Roberts to get her hair and makeup done. She got dressed at Roberts and came home for half a minute for us to take pictures! We went to the Orlando Country Club to take more pictures with the Junior class. Then it was off to Jackson's, then on to dinner and the Dance which was at the Whyhdam Resort on I-Drive. Wow.. I'm exhausted just recapping the week. Bekah got home about 1:30 AM from the Dance and we were up until 3:00 AM talking about it! Bekah had a great time and danced all night long.
I am so happy for her, these are memories she will have for a lifetime. I am proud of her for being involved, finding joy and living out her high school days to the fullest!
