Homecoming 2010

This is unusual for me lately . . . I'm going to blog about a recent event!  This past weekend was homecoming here at MSU and we celebrated all weekend, Sparty style.  On Friday night we made our annual trip to downtown East Lansing to watch the Homecoming Parade.  Both Drew and Kate were decked out in their Spartan gear anxiously awaiting the beginning of the parade.  It got off to a loud start with the East Lansing Police motorcyles leading the way with lights and occasional sirens.  Cool!
We met some friends for the parade and I got to hold this little guy before the parade started.  He's so little!  I can't believe Drew and Kate used to be that light and tiny.
Our friend Sarah got to experience her first MSU homecoming parade.  The highlight of the parade for Sarah?  How into the parade JANA gets!!

Kate did a great job of sitting on the blanket and watching the parade.
As you can see, we were all decked out in our Spartan gear.  The kids also had fun joining in the "Go Green!  Go White!" cheers.

Both Drew and Kate loved the parade, but Kate thought the bands were a little loud.  To deal with it, she decided to cover her ears!

As the parade went on it got darker and cooler.  Drew and Kate both pulled on their green and white hats to keep warm.
This is my new favorite picture of Drew.  What a handsome dude!  Both Drew and Kate were fantastic throughout the parade and had a great time.  The next day we tailgated (a.k.a. had a "Sparty Party" as Drew and Kate call it) and my dad, brother, and I went to football game.  MSU's football team has been doing well and there is a lot of excitement in the Lansing area.
