Sweet Home Kappa Gamma

Theme for the weekend was definitely... Kappa's It!

Before I get started recapping this great family filled weekend, let me give you a little glimpse of how I got there..

Heres a pic that I not so sneakily snapped of the best travel partner ever! Not. I have never seen a perosn consume so much alcohol on such a short plane ride.  Long story short, this guy was a champ until he passed out in my lap. Shaking, poking, and mildly yelling wouldn't wake this man up.  Hope he didn't miss his connecting flight!

It was like love at first sight seeing this red sign again! NY why don't you have Chik-Fil-A? So unamerican.  I thought this would be a perfect meal to grab on my way back to the city on Sunday. Yes, I have been counting down the days to get my chicken fix and I plan my visit for Sunday, the one day I-know-in-the-back-of-my-mind-but-never-remember-until-I-want-it that Chik-Fil-A is closed.  I might be forced to sneak into the NYU cafeteria soon..

Was excited to sport my new city walkin' shoes on my travels!

This weekend was one for the books.  I have been planning for some time now to surprise my sister at her bid day at the University of Alabama.  Check out some fun pics from my weekend!

Just a little glimpse at the 1,500+ PNMs going to get their bid cards!

And here they come...

Running..

All the way home to KKG!

Fun fact-- only family was allowed to sneak in the house for lunch and a tour.  When questioned by the security guard, who do we say Joel is? Our brother naturally.  Did it work?  Barely!

If any of you TCU people are checking out this post, please just swoon over these snap shots of the KKG house.  Sorry y'all, the Zouse has been downgraded to the Zorm.  Not in my heart though!

So much fun spending a quick 48 hours with the ones I love most!

Check out Maddie and her 118 pledge sisters!

Don' worry, my mom throws what she knows!

I was a converted Kappa for the day!

 But I couldn't help but sneak by the true Zouse to check out the Bid Day after math!  ZLAM!

Quick trips like this totally magnify how I took my sweet fam for granted when I only lived a short 30 minutes away.  Now to get to them I have to take a train, plane and automobile! Good thing a weekend cures my homesick blues!

Until next time Bama! Next stop, Family Weekend 2013...
