Bearkat Betsy

We spent three fun days in Huntsville, Texas this weekend, home of our alma matter Sam Houston State University. Ben, Betsy and I left Killeen at about 6:30 in the morning so Ben could make an early round of golf. Our reason for heading to Huntsville was the wedding of our dear friends Angie and Trey. I'm splitting the trip into a few posts because I took too many pictures to make one post for the whole weekend!

New Sam Houston statue toward the center of campus. It's a miniature replica of the large statue in Huntsville.

What a sweetie!

So tired, but so pretty!

Betsy in front of the old statue of Sam Houston. When I was an orientation leader at SHSU my fellow OLs decided we needed more traditions at the university. We started telling our orientation groups that if you rubbed Sam Houston's hat before you took a test you would have good luck.

Beautiful Sam Houston State campus

Now that she's so mobile getting Betsy to sit still for pictures can be a difficult task!

So tired after all the fun, Betsy caught a ride on the luggage cart on the way up to the hotel room.
