A sis-n-law visit, and 2 rivals Duke and UNC

Our first full day in North Carolina was spent visiting Jay's other sister (one of four) before all the festivities began.  We definitely wanted to see Valerie while we were there, it's been several years since we have seen her.  She is a sophomore at UNC Chapel Hill so we met up for lunch and she showed us around campus and her townhouse.  She is a ZTA (we are ZTA sisters too!) and she just made the UNC All Girl Cheer squad!  She is very smart, responsible, and as beautiful on the outside as on the inside.  We are soooo proud of her!  Isn't she adorable???

We ate lunch at Mama Dip's (a Southern cooking restaurant) and then she walks around campus. It is a beautiful campus...it made me miss the good 'ole days of college!

It was so great to see her and we were sad to leave knowing it might be a while before we see her again. :(  But thankful for the time we did have.  Love you Valerie!!!

I know this is unheard of for UNC or DUKE fans since they are rivals, but we left UNC campus and went straight to Duke to see the campus.  Jay and his family are Duke fans and have been for many years.  His dad used to work there and 2 of his sisters (Kelly and Nicole) both work there now.  It is a beautiful campus and every time we go to North Carolina, a visit to Duke is a must!

The campus is so beautiful!


Some of the buildings are breath-taking!



It was a wonderful day!  Looking forward to wedding festivities to begin!
