Homecoming Week in Clifton

What a week it has been! I just love all the activities for Homecoming and how the whole community gets involved! The school has themed days so that the students and faculty can dress up and promote school spirit all week. They had a Camo day, Hawaii day (I wonder if schools in Hawaii have "Texas day"), of course a tacky day and on Fridays it Green and White. The funniest day, for me this year was "Decades" day. The freshman had the 60's, Sophmores the 50's, Juniors the 70's and Senior's the 80's (because it was the best decade - that made me laugh so hard!) I do remember school in the 80's and we always had a fifities day. I never thought that my kids would dress up like I did in school. Anyway, the senior football guys wore the old basketball uniforms from the 80's. The Sr. girls in the leg warmers and side ponytails, stood in the halls swooning over the basketball team. They sure had a lot of fun.
The band will be performing their entire show for the first time tonite. I can't wait. They are really pushing themselves to prepare for State next year.
Hannah is on the Homecoming Court and is very excited that her best friend, Tracy is as well. Actually all the Seniors are good friends so there will be no loser!!
Hannah introduced Cliff Kennedy as the speaker for the community pep ralley. Cliff is in town for his 10 year reunion. He and his wife have been great role models for my kids and we think an awful lot of them and their families.
We will post more pics this weekend from the game tonight!
Go Mean Green!!
