It was September of 1999 that I first met Matt, an adorable, witty, junior at Judson College. We quickly became friends and by October 1st we were on our first date - Judson's Homecoming Banquet.
Fast forward 12 years, to the day - a lot has changed. The beautiful campus where we fell in love is now Judson University. We are no longer carefree college students dreaming about our future, but a husband and wife that have been through so much more than I could've ever imagined. I've traded in my backpack for a baby bjorn and instead of running after my roommates, I'm chasing my kids.

It was so wonderful to be back on campus. So many things remained unchanged... making me feel as though I never left. I loved my time at Judson and am so thankful for the memories, the friendships and the growth that I experienced during my 4 years. It's hard to even explain the feeling that I had seeing my alma matter. College was such a precious time and being back made me miss those years so much. I wanted to grab every student I saw and say "cherish these years!!!" but I didn't.

It's so hard to say "goodbye". Thank you Ronnie and Christie for spending the weekend with us. It was so much fun for us.
