October

So it seems I completely missed the month of October. This is very sad news indeed because October is my very favorite month. I love the weather, Halloween, pumpkins, the smells, and the excitement of the holidays coming near. October was eventful for us. ΣA and BYX participated in homecoming together and I got to work on my first float. Pomping is fun! We walked in the parade and I got a slight tan. Then at the football game my best friend, Sarah, was crowned Homecoming Lady! So exciting!! Also this month our Fall 2011 pledge class was inducted as new members! What a blessing it was to be on the other side of pledging. I have such admiration for the 9 beautiful girls I can now call my sisters. God has blessed Sigma and I am so eager to continue this journey with them. We also found out this month that Crockett has been accepted into the Coast Guard! His estimated ship out date is April or May of 2012. I am so thankful he won't be leaving any time soon. God is so good.

Right before Halloween something incredible happened... Jess & Aaron & Noah moved in with us! Yes, our tiny, one bathroom, house now holds 4 people, 1 baby, 3 dogs, and 1 cat. It has been a tight, fun adventure. I love coming home and seeing Noah. I love not missing any of his life. I love having my sister around. I love laughing with her and talking with her and finally having someone around who knows what I'm talking about. Right after they got here it was HALLOWEEN. Crockett & I celebrated 3 years together Oct. 31. It really has flown by. I am so in love with him still. This year I was a NASCAR fan and a cat.

Speaking of NASCAR...
I survived my first coordination of TMS! The weekend went by almost flawlessly. :) Have I mentioned how much I love my sisters? How fantastic they are? How much they love Jesus and how it reflects in their lives? I. am. blessed.

And on a more academic note, there are only 2 weeks in the field left! I will be done with the first half of student teaching in just 2 weeks. I can't believe it. I still have classes till December and the projects never stop, but I'm one step closer from becoming a college graduate. Class of 2012!
