Auburn University and its wonderful Creed....

Auburn, Alabama~ The Loveliest Village On The Plains!

For generations, Auburn University students, alumni and fans have celebrated Auburn victories at the center of the Auburn Universe..... The corner of College Street and Magnolia Avenue.
This is also the home of Toomers Drugstore (an Auburn landmark for over 150 years), the world's best hand squeezed lemonade. Hanging over the corner are two massive old-growth oak trees, and anytime anything good happens at AU, toilet paper can usually be found hanging from the trees. This tradition is known as "rolling the corner". Of course, a few weeks ago when AU football won the BCS National Championship, a celebration was held at the corner!

THE AUBURN CREED

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn.

Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.

I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.

I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.

I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.

I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.

I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.

I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."

And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.

Graduation Day at Auburn University...

Whit graduated Friday from Auburn University with honors. We are so very proud of her and so excited about the next stage of life for her. Whit is the first graduate coming down the aisle with cords.

Whit's family in attendance... Papa, GinGin, Reid, Yvette, Lauren and Sonya!

Whit's graduation was at 10:00 and JD's at 2:00. This is in between the two graduations with both families.

Recycled Ladies Pump into Sunday Go to Meeting Shoe...

This is my last post before I announce the

winner of my Giveaway on Monday morning!

So... if you have not put YOUR name in the pot

do so over the weekend dear chickadees!

Next week I will be sharing with you my adventure over the past week. I had to take a day trip to Auburn, Alabama to take Whit some formal dresses for a dance she had last night. Sob, Sob... Oh, how I miss all of the wonderful Homecoming, Prom and Debutante dances she went to in High School! I am just thankful that she is getting the opportunity to wear all the wonderful dresses again! Anyways, Anywho and back to what I was discussing before I so rudely interrupted myself with the sobbing.... I went to Auburn and I DO NOT PLAN a trip to Auburn, Alabama without going Junkin'..... Girlfriends... Going down Interstate 85 between Atlanta and Auburn you can find some of the best little antique and junkin' places in the world! And my favorite little strip is in Opelika, Alabama! But, I can't get carried away now or I will totally give away my post for next week! So Stop Yvette and go Post NO More on that....
I will share a project that I could not wait to do once I arrived home! I pondered on it all the way, trying to figure out exactly how I was going to manipulate all the pieces into part to make it what I wanted!
I started with a plain old black simple ladies pump and a old torn up Baptist Hymnal that I found at Salvation.... whooops, can't tell you the name of the store yet because that will blow my post. Anyways and Anywho it was a "store" where I made a very, very, very cheap purchase.

This is my completed project~

I call it my

Sunday Go to Meeting Shoes

I will be using this to hold my business cards at

Vintage Village!!!
