Back To Where We Became A Family

We are the average family so our lives are no more hectic than anyother. So, when my husband suggested last week that we take a little day trip to the campus of MSU for "Super Bulldog Weekend, " we were all excited. When we left 14 years ago, we just knew we would return at least a couple of times a year for various games and such, and even though it's not as often as we'd like, we always have fun traveling down memory lane.



Mike and I were married almost 18 years ago. He was 21 and I was 19 (such babies!) A week after we were married, we settled into the little town of Starkville, MS. It was my first year there enrolled in the School of Interior Design. My husband had been there for several years already. I remember it was pretty scary living away from my parents and home for the first time, but we settled into newlywed and university life pretty easily.


Our children like to hear the stories we tell and see the places that were special to us during our time there such as our first apartment, where we shopped, the local library, the place we worshipped, the hospital that our oldest was born, and lastly and most favorite the campus.

I always thought the cafeteria ceiling with it's flying buttresses was so pretty.

Many more pictures could be shown, all in all it was a very good day with family.
