HOMECOMING 2008

So last week was homecoming week for Dom. TONS of activities.......pep rallies, assemblies, NO homework, float building, parades, the big football game and THE dance. Not sure it is just here OR I am just getting old, BUT things are definitely different from when I was in high school. I mean, they go ALL OUT for homecoming week. It was CRAZY. Dom helped build the freshmen float. Then Jason, the kids and I went to the football game. It was a great game. Our team scored in the first 13 seconds of the game. lol At half time it was 41-0, so we left. Dom was poed, though, I am NOT sure why considering she did NOT watch the game. She was too busy running around with her girlfriends. lol

Well, umm....yeah....okay, let's get the point of this post. I do not even know how to start. Okay, Okay, my baby girl just went to her first dance with a........................................................REAL BOY!!!! Just thinking about it makes me want to bawl. Her "friend" Corey asked her to the dance. COOL for her, NOT cool for daddy and moi. OH and freakin HILARIOUS for an annoying little twerp name Jayden.

The dance was Saturday night. All 5 of us headed over to Corey's house for pictures. It was SO cute, he had a corsage for Dom. We tooks pics. LMBO because Corey was SOOOOOO nervous. Come to find out, he was MORE than just nervous, he was scared SHITLESS. hee hee.

Okay, a little recap....Dom is NOT allowed to date until she is 17 or if Jason had his way 37. BUT, she is allowed to go to movies, etc with a male friend as long as we go with her OR she goes with a group of friends AND we must drive or there and pick up her up. Well, a few weeks ago Dom was going to go to the movies with Corey. It was with the understanding that Corey's 17 year old sister would chaperone. So, I drive her to the movies. She goes in. Then I receive a phone call that Corey's sister just dropped him off. Ummm.....ok. So, not being able to get a hold of Jason, I made the executive decision to let her go, with the understanding.....NO holding hands, NO rubbing elbows, NO drinking water....thus NO going to the bathroom, etc, etc. Well, she made it through the movie. However, the night did NOT end well, as Jason was livid. His daughter just went on a date with a boy. UH-OH! I still can not tell who was in more trouble, Dom or me.

SO...back to picture taking for the dance. Come to find out the reason Corey was so scared of Jason was because our lovely daughter told Corey, "I am not in trouble, BUT I think it would be best if you NOT come around for a while". Poor kid. However, why should he be afraid of a little guy like Jason???? lol

So, after pics, we drive back to the house so the kids can play Wii for a little while. Then we head to Jimmy Johns so they can eat. Doms friend Taylor shows up. Jason, the kids and I sit in the car and watch. Seriously, we dropped them off in front of the place, then Jason backs up across the aisle to we can see directly into the restaurant. We find out later that Dom, told Corey. " I think my dad parked like that so he could spy on us." Too funny!

After dinner, we drop them off at school. They danced and danced. Dom said Corey was a gentlemen, pulling out her chair and bringing her sodas. SO, she made it.......WE made it!

AND now for pics................ you can tell that poor kid is nervous AND scared. AND the arm around Dom was a "pose". Corey did NOT want to do it.........YEP because of dear ole dad!

The best part is Jason decided not to clean his gun. That one is for you, Mike. lol
