Fall 2013 - First Weekend

I can't believe I'm a junior...

Anyway, that aside, I thought I'd post a few pics for family's sake of the first weekend here on campus.

Kevin and Blaise were wonderful gentlemen and helped me carry all of my stuff from the car to the dorm room.  I am immensely grateful!  They managed to move a van load of stuff in an incredibly short amount of time.
