We are so blessed to have 5 other friends from Mississippi here at Golden Gate with us. This past Thursday marked the first of many official Mississippi parities. I (Laura) must admit that this has been one of my better ideas since moving here. You just can't beat potluck home cooked southern food (BBQ pulled pork, mashed potato's, Homemade mac and cheese, and sweet tea) friends, and thick southern accents. We wanted to share a few pictures and moments from the party!
Decorations:
The goodie bags!
Southern Miss to the Top!

At some point in the night Carlena decided that we should all take a group picture. Even though many objected Carlena can be pretty persuasive and got her way. (I'm so glad she did!) We ended up taking about 20 and these were my favorite of the bunch.
For the Baptist Record :)

Tea Bags!
We love Grits!
Some how we ended up talking about planking. None of us understand it and none of us had ever done one before. Carlena decided that she must give it a try. This was the attempt she did before she knew that she was not supposed to look at the camera.
She quickly got the hang of it.
Steve's plank. Can you figure out what's wrong with this picture??
I hope this blog encourages any Mississippians who might be thinking about coming to GGBTS but are nervous about being so far from home. We'll be your family away from home. Y'all come now!
