Alright, so I realize I write in spurts, forgive me...

First of all I want to recommend the book Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers! It's incredible!  I can't put it down.. It's based on the story of Hosea and Gomer in the Bible, and by golly.. I have been sucked in!  :o)

Now, for the pictures!

First, Zeta's Wild Wild West Side party:  This was a fun post-initiation party!! Exciting.. we're members!! :o) Anyway, we could dress up in either country attire (Wild Wild West) or gangster (West Side)... Wild Wild West Side together...clever huh?

Here's Emily, Mark, and I... it's funny because Em and I ended up sharing him as a date, but he was neither one of ours to begin with!! Em and I decided to go without dates this time, and he was going with a friend of ours who ended up with the flu.  He was already at dinner with us when we found out she wouldn't be coming, so we decided to "adopt" him as our date!! lol...

This is Lydia and I in our ganster apparel... we're trying to look tough! 

Here we are having a blast!! lol I promise those are IBC root beer bottles!! Dry campus...

Audrey and I when we first got to the party... lol see i even carried a basketball for effect!  :o)

Mark and I at dinner.. and I have no idea what he's doing!

Now, for the Lambda Chi (LXA) Gangsta's Paradise party!! This is not to be confused with my "gangster" look.. this is the 20's mobster-type gangster...

Here is Tori and I... She's so beautiful.. and she's my prayer partner!

Here's some of the gangstas there!.. fun stuff..

all the lovely Zetas there...

Ashley and I all dressed up.. :o)

There are more pictures from that party in my photobox.. so look at 'em!

Next are some pictures from a birthday party... we celebrated Andrew Courtner's birthday with a surprise dinner at Longhorn!

Here we are singing Disney songs and displaying our crowns...

we played the face game.. this is where you move your face really fast and someone takes a picture of you.. and your face is forever stuck in that position.. at least in that picture...

aww.. such lovely girls! I just love them!

Seek the Noblest... that's all i have to say!  :o)

Last set of pictures is from the Monday after initiation when we could FINALLY wear our jerseys!! Yippee!!

me and some of my beautiful "new" members!!

Me and Carly outside the SUB

Some of the senior nursing majors I just happened to catch in the hallway while they were on a break...

Alisha and I in the hallway of the PAC

Lydia and I... I just love this girl!

Tori, Ashley, and I in New Testament... isn't that map in the backgroup cool?  it covers the ENTIRE wall!!  :o)  i actually go to class... despite what my pictures convey, i really do attend my classes.. and this proves it!  :o)

Well, I guess that's about it for the time being... Next time I write I'll probably have more to show again!! :o)

Everyone have a marvelous day!! and check out 1 Peter 1:3-7!! incredible verses!!  :o)

In Christ,
Ashley
