Mum exchange

This is the traditional Texas Mum exchange before Homecoming.  The kids make mums for their dates and then give the mum to the date on teh Thursday before the game that is on Friday. They wear the mum to Friday school and to the game Friday night.  The dance is Saturday night and they do not wear them to the dance.  I know...it is not anything that we(those 3 people that read this) grew up with...but the kids love it!

As a Senior, the girls mum is to be white.  We added blue in for some color. She loved her mum! It had pics of her and Deane and the top lit up. Her bear was an artist as she is into art.

Brenn's date, Paula is a dancer, her bear is a has a tutu and little shoes. So cute! She is a sophomore so hers has the school colors and very little white. The top also lit up on the mum.

The boys wear garters on their arms.  This is Brenn's garter that Paula made him. He is a basketball player so the theme is basketball.  She did a great job on it! Deane is in college so we did not make him one....plus he did not go to this high school so that would be of no interest to him.

Dance pix to come next......
