This is the garter Alyssa made for her Homecoming date. With the amount of bells on it, he should be heard all over campus. Texas has a tradition where the girl makes a garter for the guy and the guy makes a mum for the girl. (a mum looks just like the garter, but much, much longer. It hooks around the neck and on the shoulders. They're suppose to be full of ribbon down to the girls feet that represent them and their date.) And they cost and arm and a leg (they start at the store for $70 and go up into the hundreds.) We made our own and saved lots of money. Ha Ha Ha...Ask anyone in Texas and they have no idea what the tradition is about, but nobody is about to break this wonderful tradition.
Watch for Homecoming pictures after October 18
