Homecoming 2013-

Looking forward to seeing my sisters tomorrow at a potentially rained-on parade.  Don't fret...a little coffee, fancy creamer and "remember whens" can handle the darkest clouds!  

Join us for Bagels and Brew (coffee that is) before the parade starting at 9am. Nothing formal or fancy.  We may even take the bagels out of the box for you. We may not.  The suspense is killing you, I know.

When I think Homecoming, I think of...

1.  Peppermint Schnapps and Hot Chocolate.  Is it wrong that this is my first thought that comes to mind? Yes.  :) And why didn't we come up with the name Hot Schnocolate?    

2.  Parade floats.  We're all very creative, but the chicken wire and tissue paper?  That's a great idea when it's raining.

3.  Walking with my fellow cheerleaders in the beginning of the parade and then running to find the Theta Nu float...

4. LOTS of Alumni.  Everywhere!  In our house, in the stands, lining the streets.  If that doesn't rev you up and make you feel proud of where you are, I don't know what would.  Knowing that I can call Otterbein home and even more so Theta Nu home...that's Great with a capital G. And by the way....I have a very hard time calling it "University."  I went to Otterbein College.  
End of story.     

So my question is this...
When you think Homecoming, what do you think of?
