LU Early Orientation

Well, today was the big day for Early Orientation up at Liberty University. Clay, Chris & I were up there til about 2:30 yesterday afternoon......doing financial check-in, getting his student ID card, lunch with the chancellor- Jerry Falwell, Jr., meeting with an advisor & discussing classes & scheduling, registering his vehicle, etc., etc....after all the 'must-do' stuff was done, we piddled around & walked around campus some.....showing Chris around & reminiscing about our time at Liberty. Who would've ever thought way back then, when we were students there & first in love & talking about getting married, that 20 years down the road we'd be up here again getting our son ready for his first year at LU! Wow!!!Leaving Demoss & walking up to check out the dorms.

The field behind the mansion over-looking the baseball field with CVCC in the distance. Clay said they used to sled down this hill when there was nothing out there.

The Carter Glass Mansion---Chancellor's office

Over-looking the guys working on Dr. Falwell's memorial garden.
You can look straight across & see CVCC where Chris went to school last year.

How amazing for your son to attend the college where you and your hubby both attended. That is wonderful. Looks like a beautiful campus.

Very cool! My three have all been talking about going to LSU, which, needless to say, just thrills me!
