We had two choices on Friday morning when leaving Atlanta. We could get up VERY early and beat the morning traffic, or we could sleep in and wait until everyone was at work. We decided to get up and head out at 6:30am so we could get to Tallahassee in time for the Homecoming Parade. We continued our counting of water towers from our short drive the night before, and much to my sadness, Tyler's guess was closest to the actual number of towers spotted on our journey (36 in case you were wondering). As a side note, we were very impressed with the number of water towers that find home in South Carolina. We were spotting them every few miles!
We arrived in Tallahassee around 11:30 and dropped our stuff at Mike's, where we were staying for the weekend. We got changed for the Florida sun and headed over to campus. We walked through the Tri Delta house before the parade and enjoyed seeing the house mom and meeting some of the girls. We watched the parade in front of Painted Lady and enjoyed being back on campus for a beautiful afternoon!
After the parade we went to visit the Phi Delt house. We walked through and met some of the active brothers. It was fun seeing some new additions to the house and smiling at the things that will probably never change. We headed back to Mike's for a quick change into our Halloween costumes (a pirate and his treasure chest) for the BOOster Bash. We had a blast dancing to the 70's cover band and then, against our better judgement, we headed out to midtown. We did enjoy a visit from one of our favorite Tallahassee residents and her friend. We haven't seen Julia since our wedding and we loved meeting Peyton and can't wait until she visits us in Charlotte later this year!
Peyton was sweet enough to laugh at all of Tyler's ARRRGH jokes :)
