I'm told bids were not handed out until 1:20 so there was a delay for some reason.

Congratulations, NUNUalumMUmom, SunflowerState, and NorthernMom and to your daughters! I am so thrilled for all of you! Now you can relax and breathe. I hope that your daughters have wonderful times ahead. Hoping to hear good news very soon from the rest of you waiting anxiously at home.

I'll be interested how many pledged. There were 1978 registered. No clue how many started. Someone on this topic posted that 2 houses have 130 pledges. With numbers like that, they can't have lost too many to dropping out.

And congrats to my fellow moms/aunts! A Zeta, a Theta, a Kappa and....come on, WalkintheWoods' daughter! Don't keep us in suspense!

Sorry for the delay! I've been texting all my friends like crazy. I'm very happy to say that my daughter is a Kappa Alpha Theta! So how fun that two of our own are in the same house! I happened to be a Theta at Mizzou too so, that adds another element of specialness for me. I was of course wanting her to be happy and trusting that she had her own journey to make--and I'm delighted. Big congratulations to the new members/pledges and to their moms and aunts!! And to the wonderful chapter houses that will be welcoming these wonderful girls.

I'm a sucker for a legacy ending, and chapter specific is all the more special!!
Congrats to all the girls.

YES! Congratulations. And I'm going to PM you! I know a Mizzou Theta and you might have been there at the same time. Just let me remember her name first.

I have it from a reliable source that quota was 90 at Mizzouri.

130 sounds more like what I have heard from Arkansas....

Yay!!!

I think that the excitement yet coolness and graciousness which all the moms have shown on this thread goes a long way toward explaining why their daughters are sorority material.

You are completely correct, my bad!! That is what I get for trying to watch my son play football and looking through Instagram! Thanks for the clarification!

NUalumMUmom that would be so much fun! I am not 100% sure on family weekend yet--will wait and see what Theta stuff is planned b/c we may also try to come for Homecoming weekend and I just heard that Nov. 1 is Dad's weekend. But if we are both there at the same time, I'd love to connect! PM me!

Congratulations to your girls, NUalumMUmom, SunflowerState, WalkintheWoods and NorthernMom! As classy as you ladies have been on this board all week long, I am certain those chapters got some classy young women who will be assets to their respective GLOs.

NorthernMom, since your daughter is now my sister, I can probably give you some gift ideas for birthdays, etc. I've had lots of practice shopping for turquoise blue and steel gray items, along with five-point crowns, strawberries and white violets! Sending some Zeta love in your daughter's direction!
