Off to Stilly!

Ryan, Sage and I went Friday afternoon to Stillwater for Oklahoma State's Homecoming. My parents and sister and brother in law came too! Homecoming at OSU is so fun. It is a huge part of attending OSU. I have gone every year since I started at OSU except for last year. I was so sad I wasn't able to take Sage to his first Homecoming last year. This year was probably a better first for him anyway. He was old enough to enjoy the house decks and football game. I loved sharing Homecoming with Ryan two years ago and now Sage this year.

We got there Friday evening for walk-arounds. This is where you walk around the Greek communtiy and see the house decks the sororities and fraternities have been working on for months. They cover the house that they are infront of, they are huge. They were great this year, like they always are.

Here is a picture of one of the House Decks. They are made with chicken wire and tissue paper. Its called pomping. Its hard to explain, but its amazing when its done. It takes months to finish. Both the sorority and fraternity members work on the house decks and the decks are judged each year.

Here are some pictures of Friday night!

Showing Sage a house deck. Some of the house decks had moving parts, he loved it! It felt so special to share this with him. (if you are from OSU, and a mom, you understand)

Looking at the Sigma Chi hosue deck with Papa, a sigma chi.

Sage as Pistol Pete!

Having fun walking around with Dadda! He did NOT want to ride in his stroller, of course.
