AOE Always,

Maharet aka Joanne

YEAH! txtiger.... another AI among the midst! I still cannot get over initiation it was truly beautiful, touching and something i hold very dear!

So tell me what kind of A Phi gifts did you recieve? i am jealous! hehehehe. That was sooo cool that they suprised you with the banquet afterwards:D:D

aoe,
Laura

well, let's see....it was really quite a lot of stuff! one of my sisters painted some ivy and "alpha phi" on a little box, and inside the box was a handkerchief with "alpha phi" embroidered on it, and a little pillow to put my pin on ... there was also a huge mug, filled with alternating colors of jelly beans that were all alpha phi colors, that had alpha phi and the year of my initiation painted on it ... they also had a paddle for me (which soon will have, as i'm told, the family tree that they made for me, on the back!) ... a teddy bear :) ... assorted candy and chocolate, in little tin canisters and some in the shape of bears...an alpha phi songbook from 1942! ... some forget-me-not and ivy leaf stationary ... a frog puppet, which was the mascot for the pledge class of one of my sisters ... and last, but certainly not least, a little ivy plant! :) i was so completely surprised by all of this, i had no idea they were going to do what they did!

also, when my sponsor and one of our officers asked me to join, they gave me a little welcome package filled with all kinds of cute alpha phi stuff!

SCORE! I got great gifts when I was initiated too, but I think you hit the Motherlode! :D

GEEEEZ you certainly hit the motherlode alright! heheheh:D COngrats!

Laura

i know, i was so overwhelmed! and i felt so bad - i had planned to get something for each of the girls (from the ivy connection) that were at initiation but my schedule was so crazy that day and the previous that i didn't have time to run by and pick up what i had planned! I'll get them all back though! ;)
