GoodBye to 828

The year after college I lived with some of my dearest friends in apartment 828. This apartment has been in our circle of friends for several years now, and the girls that live there currently have decided to move out, so it's goodbye to 828!

All the girls that have lived in 828 gathered for one last shinding tonight before it's not longer ours. (We were sad to miss the newly married Ms. Nagel and also Ashley far away in Virginia.)

We've had great memories. Here are a few that stick out about the "mack shack":
- Finals week Disney parties
- putting together invitations for Meryl's wedding
-trapping a cockroach in a glass bowl until it could be killed and disposed of by a boy
- Ashley, Ashley, and Meryl dinners
- Liz accidentally turning on the voiceover on Christi's laptop
- David asking me to be his girlfriend
-fun trips to 59 diner
- fun stories with Melody and Liz (about 'jousting')
- a LOTR marathon
-lots of cooking
- gnoming the Richmond boys
-card nights with David and Mark

I'm so grateful for these memories. I'm grateful for the shelter 828 was to us. I'm grateful for the girls that lived there and the friendships that were formed there.
