This is our youngest son Tim...The photo above shows him just after he picked up his tux for the Homecoming dance at his High school on Saturday~
But before he can wear his tux he had to put on the Panther mascot suit and get the crowd all cheering for the Home team~!
Here he is all decked out and ready to go meet his date's parents~Corsage in hand~♥
While Tim was away, I set the table with my Grandmothers beautiful china. You might recognize the lighted fall decor~I took it off my mantel here in another room for tonight's special dinner. I can't believe how beautiful it looked with the lights in the room dimmed just a little...
Tim and his date waiting for dinner and for their good friend to arrive also...
Friend arrived, dinner is served~!
~The Happy Homecoming Couple~
This was a really big day for Tim, not only did he do all the things stated above BUT he also...(drum roll please) GOT HIS DRIVERS LICENSE~!!! I may not ever have to leave the house again, Tim keeps asking me if I need anything from the store, he'd go pick it up for me!
"Anything at all mom???" :)
Somebody has a great looking grandkid, OH WAIT! It's me.

You rock Aunt Robin!!!
What a handsome young man!! Tell Tim he had a beautiful date, too. Your table looked beautiful but I wouldn't have expected anything else from you! You made everything special for this important night.
ReplyDeleteLOL your mom's comment is precious! Yes BJ you do have great looking grand kid - must take after you!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a big day - didn't you say you needed something at the store Robin?? Congrats to Tim!!
You should be so proud of your son and yourself. It really turned out lovely. The table is just beautiful. Your son is so cute as the mascot. Love that. He seems so grounded and such a nice young man. And his date is gorgeous. Wow.
ReplyDeleteYou have really done a great job raising him. Driving and asking his mother go get anything you want. Nice nice and nice.
He's a cutie Robin and so his is date! Love the table setting and I am sure he will remember this also down the road when he looks back. Great job Mom!
ReplyDeleteLove the dishes also!
Robin- What wonderful pictures! Timmy is so dashing in his tux (and such a cute mascot!) and he and his date make a lovely couple.:) The table looks absolutely lovely! And a BIG Congratulations on Timmy getting his license!! Yippee!! What a big day! Lori
ReplyDeleteSo handsome...and helpful!!!
ReplyDeleteMy father put on a breakfast for a group of friends after the dance. Such a special night!!!!
Hi Robin~
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet couple they make! I chuckled about him asking if you needed anything from the store and being so willing to grocery shop! That's great! :) (And I can't wait until our son can do that for us! Then again, on second thought, maybe not!)
I hope you had a wonderful weekend! :)
How fun to be the mascot!!! Put on that mask and dance around!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the table you sat!
The couple looks VERY handsome!!!
He is handsome!!Take advantage now of them wanting to go to the store because in a year you will get the whining and complaining "Do I have too?" LOL I was sneaky and always took advantage of it when my 3 boys received their license. Tell him congrats and the couple looked wonderful! have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteJuanita

They look adorable! What a beautiful table you set for them. Hope they had a great time at the dance. Maybe you should send him out for a coffee especially if he's paying ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Robin- I came across your comment on Jan's blog and saw that you were from Cheney. So, weird- I lived in Cheney back in 1970-1974. We are roughly the same age so I'm wondering if our parents knew each other? What is your maiden name? My parents are the VanWie's...Just curious!
ReplyDeleteYour son is so handsome...he just looks like a really great kid!
ReplyDeleteMy youngest is now a sophmore in college...I miss homecoming and formals!
What a happy day when my oldest daughter got her license and she could run to the store, drive herself to all of her activities, pick up her sister.... Then she went off to college and I'm back to driving again!
ReplyDeleteWhat a big day! They're so cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking couple!! they grow so fast don't they?!! And what a gorgeous table you set for them, and I bet they so enjoyed their meal and felt so special!:0) Congrats to him for getting his license!!! Oh and how awesome your grandbaby will be here before Christmas!!! Take care!~Wendy
ReplyDeleteI would be soooo nervous cooking for those couples! I am sure you pulled it off beautifully! That is so great that he can now drive! I find myself wishing my 13 year old could go run some errands for me!
ReplyDeleteThis is sooo precious. I love homecoming pic's. They are just fun!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Debbie

ReplyDeleteRobin, Very cute. I remember those days with my 3 boys. Take it all in because time really flies. I have 2 boys that are 29 and one is married. Just wait till they get married, and you just can't believe it. Enjoy this time with Tim and having him home with you. I love your dining room and your chairs. did you make the covers?? Hugs, Tracey

Hi Robin!
ReplyDeleteI left you a comment yesterday, but it must not have gone through...I couldn't find it! Oh, well...try, try, again!
Your son and his date make a great-looking couple. I am so impressed that you made dinner for them at your house! I've been told that's the new fad. My daughter?? It was a no-go. She just HAD to go to a restaurant. At least we didn't have to pay for her dinner!
I really enjoyed your pictures! Thanks for sharing and have a glorious day!!
Hi Robin
ReplyDeleteI am so pleased you enjoyed your walk with me in the deer park via my blog. I will try and do another one soon. Thanks for your lovely comment.
I hope your week is going well.
