My younger sister was asked to attend the Marine Corps Birthday Ball by one of her best friends from home. He is a freshman at the Citadel and was invited (from what I hear it's an honor to be asked as a Knob) to attend.
So, my parents and K came down to stay for Saturday & Sunday the first weekend of November. We hung out and then I helped K get ready by doing her nails, hair, and makeup :)
We drove downtown and took some pictures of them around the grounds of the Citadel and
then took them to the Ball (freshman aren't allowed a car).
It was fun to hear about the Marine traditions, the food they ate, and who they sat with when they got back later that night!!
T and K
I love laughing photos
SO serious
We enjoyed having T stay at our place and attend church with us Sunday morning.
We went to lunch at Red's Ice House and then my mom and I left for North Carolina.
While we were gone, everyone hung out at our apartment before taking T back to campus before curfew. Thanks T for taking my little sister to enjoy a once in a lifetime experience.
{Thankful for honorable friends}
ps- She's growing up too fast!
Hi Jamie, how lovely that your little sister was invited to attend the Marine Corps Birthday Ball with an old friend. I see that she had a wonderful time and you all got to visit. What a special weekend that must have been. I have recently found your blog and am now following you, and will visit often. Please stop by my blog and perhaps you would like to follow me also. Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Chris
