Wednesday was Judy and Brent's last day at the admissions office. Judy had a great retirement party and I was so happy with how many people took off work to come out and support here. Work is a bit stressful as of late, and I was excited to be able to take a mini holiday to Huntsville. I got to catch up with old friends in the admissions office and visit LEMIT. It feels like home there. Lee and I say that everytime we go back and it's so true. :)
Judy and Brent were among the most important people I knew at Sam Houston. They were trusted mentors. Without Brent I may not have had the extra chance to show all those who believe a standardized test can determine your worth in college wrong. I got through college with great friends, experiences and a fairly good GPA. All thanks to those in admissions that work with the PREP program. Brent will be missed at Sam Houston.
Judy was always a supporter for all things relay or student ran. :) She really believed that all of us would make a difference in the world, whether it was raising money or standing on the field as we welcomed everyone to an event - she was always right there. She will be missed at Sam Houston.
Saturday morning we went out to the St. Francis Festival -- A Blessing Of The Pets with the dogs. The shelter was out doing microchips/tags and out with our mobile adoption team. All three of the dogs that went out to the mobile adoption event were adopted!! It is such a great feeling! We saw turtles and donkeys. Gus was terrified. Snickers was more concerned about the dogs... LOL. We have very special furkids, as you all know. All in all, it was a lot of fun.
Lee and I at the SHSU game (before all of the rain)
Sammy and Me! I love Sammy! <3
Lee and I ventured out for the second Saturday home game today after the St. Francis Festival. The last game rained through the second quarter, this game was a bit different. The weather was nice and cool, overcast and seemed as though it would be perfect football game weather. I was mistaken. Two minutes into the game it was delayed due to lightening. It then proceeded to rain on and off throughout the whole game. Lee and I had to head off to the bookstore to buy jackets because UPD wouldn't let us bring in our umbrellas, because they claimed they could be used as weapons (but they don't check your purse or backpacks...hmm...). Anyways, we went home wet, with new jackets and winners. SHSU won against St. Josephs 41-0. YAY.
Now onto Sunday. A day to relax, meet with the Avon lady, clean and get ready for the week ahead.

Did you see my swine flu sister? Her cheer coach may or may not have made her cheer (even with a dr. excuse and being doped up on vicodin) but I know she was at the game with her bf.
