Jude and Anna at the lake in Wash Park on Homecoming night

This was Homecoming Week at South High School and it was a big week.

Jude played in the Homecoming soccer game on Tuesday night, playing against the number one team in the competition, Broomfield. They played their best game of the season and only lost 1-0. It could easily have been a draw but for a lucky shot.

Anna has been talking about Homecoming for weeks. We bought her a new dress and she was excited about the big night.

Many of the students were gathering at the Boathouse in Washington Park for photos. Marcy and I decided to go check it out and there were hundreds of kids taking photos by the lake.

After photos it was off to dinner. Jude went to a friend’s house and they Doordashed Thai food. Anna went to a nice restaurant in Cherry Creek. They all went to the dance but didn’t stay very long as it was super hot in the gym. They spent some time in the park and then went to a party. Anna stayed over at Maggie’s house.

They both said it was a fun night and they all made it home safely.
