homecoming bound.


this morning, justin & i are headed over to our beloved college town: ruston, louisiana. while there, we will be partaking in homecoming festivities, touring the updated campus, & just generally enjoying being back where we spent our undergrad days. i am positively brimming with excitement. i can't wait to spend this lovely long-weekend saturday in the setting of my fondest memories.

these photos are from homecoming of 2007, which was our senior year. it was a very special year for me, as i was given a huge honor - one that meant the world to me: i was named sweetheart of justin's fraternity. i will never forget that day; it was one in which i was surrounded by some of my very best friends, in one of my very favorite places: louisiana tech university. i feel lucky to have such memories, & i also feel lucky that justin & i are still together after all these years, so that we can head back to our college town to celebrate homecoming together. and i really do hope it's a tradition that we continue. here's hoping this year is as lovely as they come.

happy homecoming & go dawgs!

(warning: sorority talk) was Justin a SAE? I see the phi alpha flag. (or perhaps you were an alpha phi and the photo is flipped).

What a tremendous honor to be the sweetheart. you must have sparkled for days.

Aw I hope you had a blast! My college doesn't have a homecoming :( I was in a sorority but the west coast college scene just isn't the same as the south.

the back and forth.

Justin had to turn on the air conditioner again last night.  It's October 26 - doesn't that mean the heater can stay on? Doesn't...
