The theme for the Homecoming dance this year was Wonderland and the group Avynlea and I were in were in charge of the ticket booth, photo area and the front part of the foyer. Our group consisted of Avynlea and I, Katie and Jackie, Hannah and Tara, Paige and Amy and Natalie and Diana. We spent a lot of time leading up to this week planning , creating and organizing and we were pretty happy with how well our areas turned out.
We needed to tape these oversized playing cards to the ceiling and the kids didn't want to bother with a ladder and instead used their cheerleading skills. Allen and Paige lifted Katie who was able to tape the cards up no problem.

Our photo area turned out really cute and once we were done we got pictures of our groups cheerleaders posing with the photo props.
Amy, Diana and I were once again in charge of shoe check. Once we got our area all set up we took our own picture in front of the picture wall we created and then we got a picture in the shoe check area, our last shoe check.

Avynlea didn't want to go to Homecoming with a date, she actually found out a guy in her seminary class was going to ask her and she told her friends to tell his friends that she already had a date. She doesn't like going to dances with dates and just wanted to go and be with her friends and have fun without worrying about having to stick with her date. I didn't see a problem with it and fully supported her letting the guy down gently. She went with Sadie, Madison and her boyfriend, Anna, and Ruby and she had a really great time.
After the dance Amy, Diana and I got pictures of our girls and with our girls and it was fun to see them all dressed up and having fun.
