College Throwback & A Giveaway

08/22/14 | assorted, Georgetown

This weekend I am heading down to Washington D.C. for 36 hours of what I am sure is going to be utter ridiculousness – it is my friend Lindsay’s bachelorette and a swim team reunion two years in the making.  I am still not sure of all the details but spending time with a group of my favorite people in my favorite part of the nation’s capital is going to be fun.  

As if I was not excited enough for the reunion, I took a walk down memory lane via-Facebook to remind myself of some of the amazing times my friends and I had at Georgetown.  Just for fun, here is a photo from every year on the Hilltop: 

Freshman Year: Heading to the annual swim team “date party” holiday formal. 

Freshman Year - 2008

Sophomore Year: At a Georgetown basketball game, go Hoyas!

Sophomore Year - 2010

Junior Year: In my campus apartment before a truly memorable night out. 

Junior Year - 2011

Senior Year: The seniors at our last home swim meet. 

Senior Year - 2012

Many of the people who will get to be at reunion this weekend were the same ones who were at the Fake Wedding, in fact, I am having lunch with the “bride” and “groom tomorrow”.  To say I am excited about this weekend is a drastic understatement – it is going to be amazing!  And while I am certainly not going back to school but then, that does not mean I can not pretend and you can to with this $150 Back to School Giveaway to Target! 

Dara : The Southern Thing // Melany : Melany’s GuyDlines  // Kelly : Sparkles and Shoes 
Logan : Logan Can  // Jess : The Fly Away American  //  Kelly : Six One Six
