Lipani Family: Catch Up

The months of March and April have just flown by! March started with a weekend of Michael out of town and ended with me being out of town. I had a chance to go to Ole Miss for a reunion weekend. Most of you know that I spent 2 awesome years at Ole Miss before finishing college at LSU. I had two totally different college experiences at each school and wouldn't change it for anything.
I went to Ole Miss very naive about sororities and rush. I knew that most girls on campus went through the pledging process so I figured- why not. I swear I look back and wonder how in the world I got into a sorority. I just remember how "un-put together" I felt. All of these Mississippi girls knew just what to wear and just what to do.

My rush experience was pure fate and I ended up getting a bid from Kappa Alpha Theta and it was the perfect place for me. I met some of my closest friends in Theta and it is a bond that will always tie us together.

I will embarass myself and post some college pics in this blog post below.

This is what rush looks like from the outside. This was my Sophmore year so we're the ones screaming/singing out the front door at the poor Freshmen.

This is a 60's Swap from Freshman year. I have those horrible bangs in my face!

Me & Nat on Derby Day (1997)

This is one my favorite pics. This is our Sophomore year Halloween party. We are the Spice Girls-- can't you tell!

I had to include this one because this pants are hideous!!
Me, Emily, April, Andrea & Liz

(We were inseperable when that year!)

Me & Courtney Hendry
Courtney has always been one of my favorite Thetas. I think I always loved that she seemed to have it all together and I always felt completely opposite.

Theta has been on the University of Mississippi's campus for 30 years and the house has undergone huge renovations so they held a reunion in March. All of the alum were invited up and thanks to Facebook a bunch of girls in my pledge class and surrounding classes decided to go.

I hadn't been to Oxford in over 10 years. It's easy to realize why I fell in love with it in the first place. The campus is gorgeous and there is enough small town charm to suck in anyone! It was a very fast visit, but it was great! Although a lot of us hadn't spent time together is very long time we all picked up right where we left off. I am so proud to be a part of such a great organization with some incredible ladies!
