Whoops!

OK, so we started moving this week and I'll put up pictures of the new place so you can see when I'm done filling you in on Convention (which I know you're all super excited about, but I'm not one to abandon a project!) BUT we haven't had internet so far! I'm using my wireless hotspot on my phone (man, don't I feel all tech savvy?) but we've been so busy and the hotspot can't support the blogger uploads like regular wifi that I haven't had a chance to catch up! Never fear, I will start again tonight! Lots to say here AND on the Agape blog!

Prickly Pear

After dinner, Morgan had heard such great things about the Prickly Pear Margaritas that we had to go try one! The view from the patio was amazing, and my camera just didn't do it justice! 

The margaritas were super yummy, by the way! Highly recommended!

Thursday Dinner

We missed the free 5:30 shot but hung out for a minute and enjoyed the view!

Dinner!

Totally fun centerpiece!

Squishy water balls from the centerpiece

PIP Story Telling!!!

Me and Barb-- she's a PIP now! 

Peg Kramer Crawford, PIP, and too funny!

The PIP Story Telling was probably one of my favorite things all week-- Peg Kramer Crawford is without a doubt, one of the funniest people I've ever met! I wish Blogger would work so I could upload her story about going to Canada twice for chapter installations; there's intrigue, breaking international law, defrauding the Canadian Government, and a plunger. 

Credentials, Please!

I had the honor of being asked to be a part of the Credentials Committee for IC which means that I helped check in all the delegates from alumnae and collegiate chapters to the business sessions to ensure the proper number of attendees. Below is our amazing CC!

Convention Kickoff

The breakfast wasn't that great (I DRENCHED my waffles in syrup and still couldn't chew them!!) but we had panda bear silly bands on the table and I think I finally like them... Pam Simon, a staffer of Gabrielle Giffords', is an AOII and spoke about the day of the shooting and her experiences with Rep. Giffords. I don't have a picture, but we also got little Peace Love and Gaby bracelets to wear around. It was really amazing listening to Pam talk about the experience and how close she is with Rep. Giffords! I have some TRULY amazing sisters!

Panda Bear Silly Bands!

Me and Brandi! I miss her so much!

Vicki, Rachel, Danielle, Me, EmJ, Jessica, and Morgan-- Gamma Sigma and the Panda!

Welcome to Tucson!

While the dinner/reception itself was a little lacking (I didn't get anything to eat by the time I'd gotten through the lines and found my table and said my hellos!), the company couldn't have been better!

Ginger and Joan (PIPs) and Gayle (Credentials Committee)

Joan was so sweet-- she took a picture of me with Ginger and Gayle!
