Two years ago I was lucky enough for Gamma Sigma to sponsor me to AOII's International Convention in Tucson. It was amazing, and I couldn't resist heading back for another go this summer in Chicago!
I saved up my moneys and split a room with the lovely Monique and made more friends, saw old friends, and fell even more in love with my sisterhood!
Yeah, that's right, the Foundation has edible cupcake toppers.
Cayla (our Network Specialist in Leadership), Ansley (Collegiate Standards Chair), Monique and I on Red and White day.
Sandy, one of my favorite alumnae
PEG! Peg is a Past International President and has been to more conventions than anyone! She is AMAZING and I love seeing her at Convention!
I went to Pizzeria Uno and had some amaaaaaazing deep dish pizza. YUM! I went back later and got a frozen one that I trucked back to Jeremy who loves their pizza.
I wish I'd had more time to walk around and take pictures-- the architecture in Chicago was very cool!
Me and my airport friend Cathy-- she is from NC and I met her at Hartsfield when we were all a little delayed getting in to Chicago. It was a lot of fun running in to AOIIs at the airport and ride sharing and not being alone on travel day!
The Panhellenic Luncheon is always fun -- our speaker this year was Maureen Syring, a Delta Gamma from University of Idaho and she was AMAZING!
I met up with a group of Kappa Omicron collegiate members - it's so wonderful to go from seeing nobody from my home chapter to running in to FOUR at Convention!
Crystal and I - I aaaalllmost stole her dress!
Ginger Banks, another amazing Past International President
My friend Kim and I-- Kim was my Network Specialist Recruitment and continues to be a wonderful friend and recruitment resource!
View from the platform of the El when Monique and I realized we were not on our way to the Airport... at least the view was nice!
I have some more pictures on my computer, but I figure I can break it up-- still to come is our first night out at Navy Pier! We had so much fun!
