Virtual Candlelight!

AUDeltaGam · #1 10-12-2006, 08:38 PM

So I have been informed of some great news from one of our sisters! So I thought we should do a candlelight for her...GC style!

I have found my dream man, he's sweet as he can be
I have found the one I love, he's all the world to me...

Who wants to hold the candle next?

Ooh ooh Laura! Can I hold it next? (Since I know who it is for!).

He wears the golden anchor
And the Bronze, the Pink, and Blue....

(Smiling a big smile and very excited for this person

)

You don't know the words to "Dream Girl??"

Oh honey, bless your heart.
Ladies, please join me in 3-part harmony:

Dream Girl
I have found my dream girl
She's as sweet as she can be
I have found the one I love
She's all the world to me
She wears the golden anchor
And the bronze, the pink, the blue
Delta Gamma, I love you
And to you I will be true.

College memories linger
Never fade nor disappear
Anchored till eternity
With lasting love so dear
Wherever I may wander
All my thoughts will turn to thee
Delta Gamma, my dream girl,
And to you I will be true.

When we did candlelights in my chapter, we always used:

I have found my dream man
He's sweet as he can be
I have found the one I love
He's all the world to me
His pin is by my anchor
The bronze, the pink, the blue
Delta Gam I love you
And to you I will be true

We basically did what you did to the "Dream Girl" song with our candle passes, Laura, except we used the lines that I used above.

I guess it goes to show that despite all being sisters, our each individual chapters have their own identities.

But let's continue the candle passing...because it's still not for me.

Well, I wasn't very good about keeping it a secret, but it's ME!!

Since I teach at a year round school, I'm just wrapping up my 2 week break between quarters. Chris and I decided to take a week of the break to go to Maine on vacation!

Well, on Monday, at sunrise overlooking Boothbay Harbor, Chris asked if I would be his wife!! I, of course, said yes! I'm soooo excited. We don't have an exact date yet, but we are shooting for next October (we **LOVE** fall). Once we find the location we want, we'll pick the exact date.

He are a few pictures from our vacation!

Chris and I in Baxter State Park.

The Engagement day! Still stoked and showing off in Acadia National Park.

I love this man!! And I get to MARRY him!!

Beautiful sunset at Cape Elizabeth overlooking the Portland Head Light.

Real men drink from pink DG bottles.

We were tipped that moose like to hang out at Sandy Pond in Baxter State Park...it was quite a hike in - especially in the rain, but it paid off...big time!!

My amazing fiance stopping for a picture as we hiked in Acadia.

This picture was taken about 10 minutes after he proposed.

The bling up-close. Yeah...I know it's tacky to post a picture of the ring...but who cares! Ya'll my girls!

Sooo...that was more pictures than I expected, but I'm super excited!!

Oh, but school starts back tomorrow! Boooo!

CJ-

Congrats and best wishes!

mini-hijack: I sang "Dream Girl" last weekend with 12 Delta Gamma alumnae from Colorado College who were back celebrating their 50th class reunion! That has become one of my favorite DG memories!
