Homecoming was early this year. They did it a few weeks into the season in case sports had to be shut down due to a coronavirus outbreak. They also canceled any parade and any dance. Instead they had an outdoor socially distanced movie, which was very poorly attended. Ellie decided just to get dressed up with her friends and have a fun night. Since she didn't have a date, I made a mum for her. She also decorated a denim jacket that she wore to school and the game that day. I made the mum with Grace's mom, Jennifer, and she showed me all sorts of tricks of things to put into the mum including hiding candy in it.
The day of homecoming, the girls went to Bella's house and got dressed up. Then they went to the Woodlands Waterway to take pictures. Next they went to dinner at the Grotto Italian Restaurant. Everyone else but Ellie in the group had a date, but Ellie just wanted to be with her friends. After dinner, they came to our house and changed and then they met the boys at a haunted house. The haunted house was so so busy, and the line was 2 hours long. Then they went back to Bella's house and watched a movie and spent the night.
Michael also did homecoming activities, although he also didn't go to the dance. He and a bunch of friends had a group date. They started out by going to Ikea and playing hide and seek in the store. Then they went to the West's house and ate dinner. Then they painted as couples. Finally, they went to the Myers' house and made smoothies and watched a movie. I think he had a fantastic time as well.
