It's hard to believe that it's been ten years since we graduated from college. Wow! Time Flies!!! This past Friday our family along with Matt's parents, Nani and Poppy traveled to Abilene for our ten year reunion. It was lots of fun and brought back many special memories. Let me fill you in on a little history...Matt's parents both attended ACU and his dad played football there. He was then drafted by the Los Angeles Rams and then went on to play for the New Orleans Saints. I think that is pretty neat. So, they saw many old friends too. We had fun going to the carnival on Friday night, attending our early morning breakfasts on Saturday for the clubs we were a part of, aka fraternity or sorority (they aren't national so they are called social clubs). After the breakfast, we had fun seeing all the floats at the parade and the kids loved it too. The theme this year was Elvis. We then went to Homecoming Chapel which was so wonderful. I loved attending chapel as a student and I love it today. The singing is amazing and every "special occasion" chapel is closed with the song, "The Lord Bless You and Keep You." It was great...however very different now having children there with us. We enjoyed the football game that afternoon and that's the first time I've ever seen an ACU game packed! It was great to see that spirit...guess people want to come when you're winning! We had tons of fun and enjoyed our special weekend at such a special place! We love ACU! Below, I scanned in some old pictures from when we graduated ten years ago and then posted pics from the weekend. It sure is fun to see how things have changed.
