Brothers Got Spirit!

Last week was Spirit Week for Homecoming at Preston and Keaton's High School. Every day of the week they had a different 'dress up' contest. The first day was 'Dress to Impress' and they put on suits and ties. They both won the competition on that day for the Junior and Freshman classes. Tuesday was 'Hawaiian' day. They put on their Hawaiian shirts and board shorts. They looked pretty cool! Preston won on that day, too. Wednesday was 'Come as you are' or 'Pajama' day. They wore their pajamas - Preston won again! Then Thursday was 'Twin Day'. That's when they dressed as seen in the above picture. They both won on that day. (Teachers and friends couldn't tell them apart and kept calling them by each others' name). Friday was blue and gold day. They just wore their school sweatshirts. Preston did paint his hair blue and gold striped, but alas... he didn't win on Friday.

Thursday night was their school 'Powder Puff' football game. That's where the girls play football and the boys are the cheerleaders. Keaton got recruited to be a cheerleader and he looked so cute in his long blonde hair - wig. Some girls even put makeup on him. It was a hoot to watch him out there cheering and attempting to do a human pyramid with the other freshman boys. Preston was the official photographer - taking pictures for the yearbook. He was hesitant to go down and take pictures at the field. Tom and I had to convince him that as yearbook editor he had a 'virtual press-pass' to go down there and take pictures. He finally relented and got some really good pictures of the game. Being parents of High Schoolers really is fun sometimes!
