Homecoming Weekend

So this year's homecoming weekend was a bit different than the past year's homecoming... My parents (non graduates of ONU) came down and my man and his family came in from Virginia. At the beginning of the week I participated in the homecoming class volleyball games in which the Juniors entirely dominated over the rest of the classes, which of course, no prize but bragging rights was given out. Then Friday I went out and watched some of the Powder Puff football games ... which was sad to watch the Juniors get ran over by the Sophomores =( But later that night me and my family and my man's family went to the girls basketball game, and they WON! The really beat the other team pretty bad... it was awesome! Then after the girls game, the guys varsity basketball team took on Athletes in Action which is like a traveling ministering basketball team. So this game didn't count for anything it was just an exhibition game since Homecoming came so early this year. BUT... at half time of the basketball game, in front of thousands of people... my man PROPOSED on the basketball court. The announcer came over the speaker saying there was a contest for the RA's to come down and shoot a free throw blind folded... and my name just so happened to get called... so I went down there, got blind folded, and was about to shoot when they told me I could shoot for 3,000 with the blind fold on or 2,000 with the blind fold off... and when the blind fold came off... there my (fiance now) was on one knee and he proposed! I was in complete and utter shock! But yes, that is the latest news of my life and how Homecoming went for me =) Super exciting time!
Classes are getting really hard and the semester is drawing nearer and nearer to an end! Stress levels are rising, but God is still providing! We have another Purple and Gold days coming up next weekend, so that's another exciting time for me at work! Thanksgiving break is only 28 days away... not that I'm counting... =)
