I am now loving the tradition of taking Ceci to Bid Day at Southern Miss, right in our hometown, which fortunately for me is the university I graduated from where I was a Kappa Delta. I remember those days like yesterday and oh how I miss it!! I was such a nerd in school (hee hee, I loved to study and be super involved in every organization on campus (and be an officer in those clubs ;)). I had many friends in all sororities by joining so many orgs, and it paid off with lifelong friends today, not just Kappa Deltas. My hope is that Ceci has a similar experience, as well as my boys. College is an amazing, one-of-a-kind experience and I hope they are ALL IN! Since I am writing this for my kiddos, I wanted to include my involvement, so they knew what Mommy did... once. And I promise I was cool, although they will NEVER believe that.;);) This was my resume right out of college (ignore the copy and paste formatting issues).:) Daddy's will be posted soon too.

One of my best friends, Leslie Waters, was a KD at Delta State, so she came along with her daughter (and Ceci's bestie) Lucy Kate... and of course our Kappa Delta honoree Vera. (She WILL be a KD one day. Certain).
My best friend Caroline drove up from Ocean Springs to see her cousin go Tri Delt. How sweet to see her if only for a moment!
These girls had way too much fun!!:)
Mesmerized by the big girls!
