So I have found out about this really fun Texas tradition where girls make these fake flowers called mums and put ribbons behind them and wear them to a Homecoming game.   And the HomeCOMING games are in this time frame of Rosh Hashanah.   It is a celebration of all the accomplishments of the student to show off what you were involved in during school such as drama, sports, whatever.   And it is an opportunity for girls to make these with their moms and friends.   I think some people have them made and spend a lot of money, but I guess they may not have time or expertise.   However I find it very interesting that these pretty decorations are worn during Rosh Hashanah for a HOMECOMING game.  And all the people are decorated.    I am floored right now seeing all these young and happy students wear decorations that sparkle.   All I can think of is the awesome decor and excitement we will have at the Marriage Feast of the Lamb!   Wow, what an awesome testimony if a girl put Christian symbols in hers!    I am in California, but I want one!   I am going to go make one for myself even though I am old and in my 30's!   Ha Ha.

Here is a cool picture that I found so you know what I am talking about....just a random search on Google, I do not know these people.
