Parents Weekend

We headed to Tallahassee for Parents Weekend. We had not seen Mackenzie in six weeks. In those six weeks she had survived sorority recruitment, a hurricane named Hermine that closed down the FSU campus for a week and an outbreak of virus.

On Friday we attended the Alpha Phi Red Dress Gala at the Tallahassee Antique Automobile Museum. This gala was a fundraiser for the Alpha Phi philanthropy - promoting awareness of women's heart disease.

Red dresses were admired but not required. We had never seen so many red dresses in one place.

As you can tell, Mason was having a blast (just kidding).

On Saturday we were invited to two fraternity houses for pre-game parties but we ended up tailgating with Mackenzie's hallmates from Bryan Hall.

It was a great game but no so great of an outcome. The Noles lost in the final three seconds when North Carolina kicked a field goal.

On Sunday morning we were invited to the Alpha Phi house for brunch and a tour. The house is amazing. It is huge and beautiful. It is one of the newest houses at FSU.

The house has an amazing second story balcony that overlooks part of the FSU campus. Mack walks to the house twice a day for her meals.

We were sad to say goodbye to Mackenzie on Sunday afternoon but luckily Thanksgiving break is just around the corner. Miss you already, Mack!

Welcome

Mason is 13, and he is a big fan of basketball and football. I work as a technology teacher at a local elementary school. Darin has his own business called Ascendant Wealth Management. Mackenzie is 16, and she loves to spend her time practicing for drumline and watching movies.
