Last weekend, I took the train up to DC to visit my brother for his fraternity's parent's weekend. Even though I had just seem my parents the weekend before for my parent's weekend, it was absolutely amazing to have my whole family back together even just for a short weekend.
Friday night my parent's picked me up at Union Station and we took the Metro out to College Park to meet my brother and eventually my aunt and uncle who happen to live 20 minutes outside of D.C.
Saturday morning after breakfast, my mom and I headed out to TJMaxx to do a little shopping. TJMaxx is out absolute favorite store, so we always have to stop by when there's one near. I ended up finding a pair of olive green pants that I had been searching for for a while and a pair of Steve Madden mid size boots that ended up being part of my birthday present.
After our shopping trip, we then went over to the Sigma Chi Fraternity House to meet up with my brother for the afternoon barbecue and corn hole tournament. It was so much fun to get to meet some of my brother's friends while spending time with my family! The President and a couple of Alumni made speeches and then my dad and brother ended up winning the corn hole tournament. After the barbecue we headed back to the hotel to hang out before dinner.
Sunday morning I took the train back to Richmond to get back into the swing of homework, papers, and my sorority chapter meeting. It was such a relaxing weekend and I loved being able to spend time with the fam. I cannot wait until Thanksgiving and Christmas when we'll have lots of time together!
This weekend I am headed to Los Angeles for my Fall Break. It's through my Modern Day Slavery class, so were going to the Museum of Tolerance, a home for women who have been rescued, and even the LAPD. Hopefully, I'll be able to write about that post a little quicker than this one!
What have y'all been up to?
Love,
