Ben let his wife and her best friends take the bed while he slept on the couch! He knew we had a lot of catching up to do.

I brought my Texas boots to Tennessee!

Everyone always says that they will never drive a mini-van, well I don't have a choice! This is my rent-a-car for the next semester, a very cool mom mini-van!! It has automatic doors side doors and large cargo space for all the boxes we will carry!
Our carts at Target getting all of our apartment items! I think we did a pretty good job.

This is our dining room that we have transformed into our home office.We have spent majority of our time here already.


Our lovely living room!

growing up!

This month has been SO busy! I have been in Indianapolis for almost a month now and I see myself growing everyday. My co-workers have become my friends and my days off have turned into laundry and house cleaning days. Oh, don't worry... I will always be a kid at heart!!   I apologize for not being able to blog a whole lot, but I do plan on posting pictures to let you see what I have been up to!

We were able to take a look inside the gym where the famous movie Hoosiers was filmed!

All of the ELCs at the NKOTBSB concert! It was like we were 11 all over again!

For a team building exercise we were told to find materials scattered all over an island and build a raft. We had 4 hours to build a raft, all get on board then paddle across the lake.

80% of people who attempt this challenge do not make it. We MADE IT across the lake in an hour and a half  on our first try! Grandaddy, Daddy and Taylor would all be proud of me for tying West Texas knots!

ELC Training in Indy!

Well, I've  been in Indiana for 12 days and a lot has happened! Here are some photos from Indy and a little bit of what I have been up to!
This is where I work, Kappa Alpha Theta Headquarters
2011-2012 Kappa Alpha Theta Educational Leadership Consultants

This is what we look like everyday on our lunch break, lots of food and smiles piled into one minivan!

Looking through Kappa Alpha Theta archives, we came across Kerri Strug's USA uniform!
All of my new friends and co-workers at a Risk Management on the Road Conference for womens organizations hosted by Kappa Alpha Theta.

This is Katie! She will be moving to Nashville with me to help colonize the new Eta Phi chapter at Belmont University! So excited to be working with her to provide more ladies the opportunity to join Kappa Alpha Theta!

Crying with joy at Dallas Love Field

This weekend I was so blessed with the chance to go see miss Courtney in Chicago! She is up in the windy city for a fabulous internship in fashion doing what she does best. I knew she was in dying need of a play partner in the fun city, so it was up to me to make that happen. So, I decided to hop on a plane and keep her company for a couple days! On my way there I had an hour layover at Dallas Love field and guess who  had the same hour layover in the same city on the same day... Emily MENKE( Bayer)!!! Of course there were tears shed in the middle of the airport and people were staring at us like we were crazy, but we didn't care! I hadn't  seen my best friend in 5 weeks and she had been thousands of miles away from me in Florida. She looked great, of course, and very happily married. We had a short (too short) visit in person and then it was time to say goodbye again. It was too perfect for us to see each other in an airport and I thank God that he placed that fun and surprising plan in my life. Now, it is off to see another one of my best friends, Courtney in Chi town!

See the world, come home for love.

I am getting ready to become a big girl now with a big girl job! I am about to start an adventure traveling for Kappa Alpha Theta as an Educational Leadership Consultant. First stop is Indianapolis on July 8th for a month of training at Fraternity Headquarters. I thought this would be a perfect way to keep everyone updated on my life while I am away and working.
