It’s homecoming season and for Texas high school students their focus is largely on one thing – mums.

“I told them I wasn’t going to be here for Thanksgiving,” Caden Wulf said. “When I turned and then I saw camouflage ... and then it dawned on me who it was,” Richard Wulf said. Richard Wulf cried in his son’s arms as Alvin ISD captured the moment on video. “I hugged him, and at that point, I lost it,” Richard Wulf told KPRC 2. “Now, this military will be able to celebrate Thanksgiving together as a family,” Caden Wulf said.

HOUSTON Just like everything else in 2020, homecoming is going to look a bit different for Texans. Though the longtime tradition of lugging massive mums through high school hallways continues, now people are adapting to todays health crisis with a creative, Texas twist the mum mask. The idea for the timely invention was sparked by Shay Mueller, a mum maker from Rusk, Texas. Im always trying to think of something new, everyones gotta wear a mask, what better way to remember homecoming 2020 than a mum mask!Its that Time! We made MUM MASK!
