Tucson

Wednesday July 9th I boarded a plane to Tucson Arizona. I went to my fraternity's convention. I did not know what to expect and I was a little apprehensive about going, since I did not really know anyone. I prayed that the Lord would protect me and bring me someone to connect to. As always the Lord provides above and beyond my expectations. The first day I arrived I was eating lunch when who walks in the door, but my friend Sarah from UTA!!! Sarah was travelling for ZTA when I came in but we got to know each other through mutual friends and I was good friends with her husband Efren in college. I was sooooooooooo glad to see Sarah it brought us both to tears!!! I really enjoyed catching up with her and seeing pictures of her beautiful girls!

God also provided some new friends! I met a ton of people and fell in love with all of them. I am so glad to have my new friends. Some are from the Houston area so I know I am going to enjoy lunch with a few of them!!

Tucson was beautiful. I enjoyed a hike with a new friend from Bedford Texas and 10 other ladies from OHIO! We had a great time. Although, the only wildlife we saw was ants and 2 birds. My week was jammed packed with meetings, dinners, and changing clothes. I was worn out! I was glad when Sunday rolled around so I could head back to Texas!
