An Early Thanksgiving at Aunt Kappa's







This year I guess I will be having 2 Thanksgivings. My dad's oldest sister, Kappa, was having an early Thanksgiving dinner for my uncle's side of the family because they were in town. My roommate, Lauren, came with me. It has been almost three months since we have had a good home cooked meal. We were in heaven! We couldn't move for a good 20 minutes. We just sat on the couch and went into a food coma. It was really nice to relax on a Saturday and hang out with family.

Theta Formal



Me and my "date"




Last night was Kappa Alpha Theta's formal. The venue was a surprise so we did not know where formal was until we got there. It ended up being at the B-side Lounge on Pearl Street. Unfortunately, Michael had a boxing match at Air Force so he was not able to make it. So, I was dateless, but I still had a good time. The theme of formal was "Theta Mascaraed". Instead of wearing masks we had custom sunglasses made that said "Theta Formal 2008" on the side. We will have another dance in the spring, so we will see how it compares.

SNOW SNOW SNOW!!!








I was woken up at 7:30 this morning by a phone call from Lauren (my roommate). She was walking home from a friends house and she called to tell me that it had snowed last night. When I first looked at my phone and saw her calling I almost didn't answer. She told me to look out side the window and all I could see what WHITE. I guess that the first snow has always been on Halloween, but not this year. It came a little late, but I guess that is a good thing for me. 

Tonight is my sororities winter formal, so I will post pictures as soon as possible. The venue is a secret so I will fill you in on the details tomorrow.

Halloween in Boulder!




Michael came down to Boulder got Halloween! He didn't have a costume so we went to one of the biggest costume stores in Boulder, The Ritz. We went early on Friday night (the store was PACKED) and after about an hour of searching Alex and I decided that he should be a 70's hippie. He loved the afro so much that he was thinking about trying to grow one himself (that will never happen)! I found this t-shirt at a vintage shop on the "Hill" and thought that it was hilarious. It had a backside but I didn't get a picture of it. We spent more of the night with Michael's sister Alex. Overall, it was a really fun and long night.
