It’s 4pm on Sunday and we all survived. Nico said it was so fun and that he had a blast. I was the annoying mom taking 100 pictures and I really don’t care. I captured the moment. Someday, he’ll thank me.
First the football game (they won against West Aurora 43-0):
He plays free safety, holds the ball for the kicker (is there a name for that?) and sometimes is on punt return.
Friends since playing little league and 2nd grade basketball:
Father and son:
Two of my favorite guys.
Finally pictures with his date:
My heart burst with pride at what a gentleman he was:
He helped his date fix her flowers.
And finally one with the whole group:
Thanks goes out to the Graham family for letting us take pictures at their house and Jen Webber for carting Nico and his date around all night.
Glad he had fun but soooo glad it is over.
And how was your weekend?
Linking up with My Time as Mom and Mama Track for :
I am a stay at home mom, married to my college sweetheart, Leo. We have four kids, Nico, Tommy, Isabella and Gia. We have a son, Rocco that is an angel in Heaven.
Aw, such a cute couple! She’s very pretty
(I don’t recall looking like that when I was 14, heh)
Thanks and neither did I. I don’t think I ever looked like that.
She is equally sweet as pretty.
Oh, wow! He looked so handsome! The pictures are fantastic. I’m glad he had a great time.
Thanks! He definitely made me proud. He was so sweet to her. He is still talking about it.
The good ol’ high school days. Glad he had a good time!

Thanks! I don’t know about everyone but Nico had a blast.
Looks like a great weekend. I love how boys seem to keep friends from thier childhoods so much easier than girls do.

Now that you mention it, that does seem to be the case. Nico had a great weekend…I, however, need a major nap.
Aw, great pictures! They look cute together. I’m glad they had fun, but I know you’re happy that weekend is over!

Aw…thanks, Chris. That’s what I was hoping to do!
So glad u made it through Homecoming! He looks so handsome! Great job Mama!
Thanks, Nikki! I’m glad it is a whole year before I have to think about it again. I don’t think freshmen go to prom.
Awww. So adorable. I’m looking forward and dreading these types of events at the same time… is that bad? My boys turn will come soon enough.

Not bad at all. Totally normal. They are exhausting!
So, the kid gets a shutout win and the pretty girl for homecoming? Sounds pretty ideal to me.
*fist bump, Nico*
