Haha - yes, I think that would be in order, lol. I'd be happy to pm you my address ...
My older daughter is the one I'm more nervous for. She tends to have a bit more reserved personality and is at Iowa State - so in a far bigger group. But no matter what happens, she's going to come out better and stronger than she went in - she has the right attitude (and I'm trying to as well ... I went through the process in the late 80s at ISU, so trying desperately not to superimpose my experience onto hers).
My WIU daughter is the outgoing, cheerleader, club president, musical theatre type and she will have a blast. Party after party is her idea of a perfect day - the more people she can meet and get to know the more fun she has. I appreciate the advice on clothing so far! She moves in on the 19th (for Camp Leatherneck - a leadership and service camp that 100 selected freshmen get to attend), so once we get her sister moved to ISU, we plan to use that bedroom as a staging area and figure out what outfits she has, put together possible combos depending on the guidelines (which she may not get until orientation for recruitment on the first night) and select an outfit or two for pref - and the color/shoes suggestions (Thanks Griffins and Quills - were you an AZD?) will be very handy!
thanks to both of you! If either of you are in the greater Chicago area and want to come join me for a margarita, you're more than welcome.
