Mark and I supervised the Freshman Hall decorating process for Homecoming week up at Guerin this afternoon. I was there as the "Supervising Mom" and Mark was recruited because he is tall! Fortunately, a freshman named Spencer showed up and he is plenty tall, so between Mark and Spencer, the decorating requiring a far reach got done in a timely manner. 

There were a nice handful of students and Tess had the idea to design it like a football field, which was very cute and fun, as is Tess, so that worked out well and I think the Freshmen have a fair chance of winning the hallway decorating contest. It looked very nice when it was all cleaned up and the whole process was even fairly well organized. (Photos: Entire group of decorators; Judy and Spencer; Tess and Anna; Silliness abounds; Takes 6 to design the football field emblem!) Guess we will see this week if they win or not...they were all very hopeful! And, where was our freshman during all of this? At IYC choir rehearsal...he didn't figure he should skip the singing for the decorating, so I took a lot of photos and he was happy to see those when he returned home. And so homecoming week commences at Guerin...I have something to do each day for the festivities, so am thinking this will be a fun week with all that going on. As far as playing to win the game on Friday...Guerin is playing Ritter...it would need to be a bit of a "Hoosiers" type victory to even come close, but the Guerin kids have a lot of spirit, so I am not sure it will even matter at the end of the night who wins...and who knows, as Bob Knight always says..."Any given team can beat any other given team in any given game." It promises to be a fun week.
