I have the best sisters....

Hey y'all,

I need to brag on my sorority for a minute and if you are new to the blog or do not understand greek life I am sorry but these women have shaped my college experience and life and I am blessed to serve along side them as an adviser, sister and friend. My sorority chapter has a blog component on the website and one of our new members wrote a beautiful post today that had me reaching for a tissue. This young woman has been a part of my sisterhood for just over a week and already feels so comfortable and excited about PBX. This post shows that although there is a stereotype of Greek life it means so much more to wear letters, it is not about Lilly, monograms and pearls but rather about finding people to love on you, accept you, and help you grow. It is about the service of others, scholarship, and being a part of something greater than yourself during college and afterwards. 

If you have a free moment please read Hailey's post here. Ashley another one of our new members wrote a sweet post on her blog.

I am so proud of my sisters for recruiting an amazing class of new members and for each one since together we create PBX. Ok, I will stop talking about these amazing girls for now.

Hey y'all,

I am in a weird rut when I don't feel like myself and it has been for the past few days so I apolgize. But here are a few things I am loving this week....

...hanging out with my sorority family. On Monday, my littles, one of my grandlittles and my great-grandlittle all came over to celebrate my birthday, watch the Bachelor, and generally hang out. It was a great chance to see everyone and for me to get to know my great-grandlittle more since she was taken this fall and I have only met her at reveal and once for dinner with her side of the family. We also might have had fun playing Cootie. Childhood games at their best (I also happened to WIN!)

Can you guess which bug is mine?

....my baby sister, kDi is visiting on Friday/Saturday! I am really excited to spend time with her since I haven't seen her since Christmas. We are really close and I am lucky that she goes to NCState which is only 30 minutes away from Chapel Hill. We plan on watchings some Disney movies and might go utilize a Groupon I have to go see Skyfall on Franklin street.

throwback to when kDi came to PBX formal Spring '11

...one of my best friend's is becoming a great-grandbig. rMc and I have been friends since our evil Western Civilization TA back when we are first years and we became PBX sisters our sophomore year. I am really close with rMc's little and grandlittle. Actually, both our Fam's have been really close for years and I am excited for kRe and might have been sending her craft ideas all of yesterday.

We were twins in our J.Crew dresses.

....finding a small group. Last week I visited two small groups and I have finally found my place. I am really excited to see where God leads us in the coming months.
