Throwback Thursday

Ahh the memories of sorority days...

My parents, John and me at one of the many fun Parent weekends in Alpha Delta Pi. Mom and dad always looked forward to this weekend each year and my senior year they were super sad that it was over :( I also love how we always had a photographer to follow us around throughout the night. Is it sad that I would like that in everyday normal life too? It would be so much easier to capture the memories and enjoy them at the same time. Also - I vow to look about this same size at some point in my life again - ha!

Throwback Thursday - Sorority Girls

Throwback Thursday - sorority style! I think this was one of my favorite formals in Alpha Delta Pi. All of them were so much fun, but this one - wait, actually I do remember one bad thing happening, so maybe it was not the best, but it was great fun! I believe this one was right before spring break and I had gotten my braces off about two days before - maybe that is why I thought it was the best. John went with me even though we were on "a break" from dating trying to figure ourselves out or something - who knows. It was our junior year which I think was the best year at college. Or not, I really liked my sophomore year too - and the others...I really enjoyed college :) I really would love to go back to this time in my life. I love my life in its present time, but I really loved my time at Valdosta State University.

Pictured here are Amanda and Melissa. These ladies were two of my very first friends in college. We were in the same pledge class and all were part of the same activities within our sorority. Of course we still keep in touch, but I miss the days we all were together in school....hopefully we will get to have some time together in June at Mel's wedding! Love you ladies!

Sorority celebration, Homecoming, and sneak peek of our baby!

This weekend I went "down to the 'ol stoppin' grounds" back to my alma mater for homecoming and a celebration of my sorority's 50th year on campus. It was such a great time! John was unable to go because at the last minute his work won a trip to Miami where apparently they win all sorts of free stuff - so far he was gotten an HD touchscreen camcorder, a laptop, video editing software, a blueray player, and other things! I guess it was worth it - especially for the camcorder! That will definitly come in handy in a few months. I enjoyed seeing so many of my sorority sisters - some I had not seen in ages! We went to a "check-in" and then a Sister Hazel concert on Friday. I bunked with a couple of sisters at the hotel I worked at when I was in college.

Saturday we had a brunch and then tailgating (yeah, I tailgated with my big belly!), and then dinner. On Saturday I also went to John's old fraternity house (where a few friends would be as well) and visited with all of them. It was a little awkward being "the pregnant girl" at the fraternity house, but it was fun to see some old friends. I think some of them were wierded out seeing me pregnant with John's baby =). At the dinner we also had a live band and I learned the Cupid Shuffle - a new favorite dance. I love to dance and I am determined that my little one will be a dancer. I figure that I can install some rhythm in him/her now!

Sunday when I was about to leave I went by the hospital to see a friend/sister because she told me to come and we could see if we could get a sneak peek of the sex of little baby Henninger. I went to the ER and the little rascal would not open his/her legs! I guess baby H wants to wait for both mommy and daddy before the unveiling!
