2016

HEY Y'ALL!!

So it has been FOREVER since I've blogged but I was home for six weeks for winter break and didn't think that was interesting enough to blog regularly. My break was wonderful. Here are the highlights:

• Thanksgiving dinner aka MASHED POTATOES AND GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
• Side note, my favorite side dish, green bean casserole was invented by an Alpha Sigma Alpha member, Dorcas Reilly. SUPER COOL
• I watched maybe 100 hallmark Christmas movies with Yaya
• Papou made me amazing dinners all the time
• We went to the Christmas Tree festival for the 19th year in a row
• I visited my old chapter at BSU and got to see all my sorority friends
• Celebrated Hanukkah with my friends. Thanks Ryann and Gaby for an awesome party. 
• I applied to graduate school
• I helped Tara and Kyle paint their kitchen
• I watched an entire Netflix series with Kyle and Tara
• Babysat
• Saw and reindeer
• Went to an ugly Christmas sweater party and won the ugly sweater contest
• Had a wonderful week of Christmas with my entire family
• My family threw a surprise 50th anniversary party for our grandparents-it was wonderful
• Saw Starwars...TWICE
• Went to Christmas Eve Mass with Brady
• Had a wonderful Christmas day with my family
• Burned our Christmas tree as tradition
• Got my wisdom teeth out:( 
• Slept ungodly amounts 
• Celebrated NYE with my grandparents
• Traveled to Pittsburg, Kansas for the wedding of my dear friends, Sydney and Jacob
• Aubrey came with me and we flew back to Indy together.
• I got to catch up with my long lost friend Jordan and was SO happy to do it

I am now back in Indy. I have been here since Sunday and am leaving for my first visit on Sunday morning. It has been so nice to see my LC friends for the week. 

Here are all the places I get to go this semester:

Galesburg, Illinois

Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Texarkana, Texas

Grand Junction, Colorado

Claremore, Oklahoma

Joplin, Missouri

Pueblo, Colorado

Rochester, New York

Kingsville, Texas

I will be helping recruit for a colony in Texarkana and I will be at their installation. I am super excited about it.

Now that I am on the road again I will be back to blogging.

Hope all is well! Happy 2016!

Ciao ciao for now
