Baylor Homecoming Advancer

Ever since my older sister, Jessica, was a freshman in college at Baylor University, Baylor Homecoming has been a weekend that I look forward to. When I was in high school, I especially enjoyed skipping a Friday to fly down to Waco for the festivities. Jessica participated in multiple aspects of homecoming including Pigskin, the parade, and of course watching the football game.

Now that I am a student at Baylor, I have the opportunity to participate in the events, myself. Last year as a freshman, it was different to experience Homecoming as a student. Although I had attended  Homecoming for four consecutive years, this time, I could finally participate.

This year I was nominated for Homecoming Queen by my honors fraternity, Alpha Lambda Delta. I am especially excited for this since I will get to be IN the Homecoming parade IN a convertible.
I am also participating in Pigskin in Kappa Kappa Gamma's act "Little Red Riding Hood." I will dance in two songs and was also chosen to sing a solo "Mercy" with four other Kappas. This picture is from Pigskin 2010. Mary Bentley (KKG president) is on the far right.

The parade is also another one of my favorite parts of Homecoming. My family usually watches the floats on the Penland lawn right across the street from the Baylor Bookstore. This picture was taken while me and my family were standing in the rain...oblivious.
