August Highlights
- Mandy's wedding the first weekend - it was beautiful and we had a great time!
- Theta Full Board meeting to prepare for our general meetings starting in Sept.
- Spent a weekend with my parents and brother in Manhattan - an end of the summer visit.
- That same weekend, Chris went to Minneapolis to go to a Twins game with his buddies.
- We went to the Sound of Music at the New Theatre last night- thank you for the tickets Kirk, Kathy, Kristin, and Ashley! We got the tickets for our anniversary and decided we wanted to wait to see The Sound of Music. It's a dinner theatre, and the food was AMAZING! We had a great time.
- We're going to one of my Theta sister's house for dinner tonight with her and her husband. She was older than me, but we met when I was president of Theta and have been good friends ever since. She's helped me to get connected to the alumnae chapter here in KC. They live right down the street from us and we've been talking about getting together, but this is the first time we've been able to make it work!
- We're going to Derby this weekend to go boating with the Ward family. Ashley & Justin are coming back from Arizona to go with us! It should be a great time! We're taking Friday afternoon off to head down there.
September Happenings:
- Chris is going to Iowa State next Wed. - Thurs. to look at their power plant. His company is doing something for them, so he's traveling there to check it out.
- 62nd Annual Geist Family Campout Sept. 4-7 at Marion Lake.

- Theta Weekend Sept. 26-27. We're going to the K-State football game and WildKAT Chase. It's our traditional "reunion" weekend where I get to see all of my closest Theta girls!
I'm starting to plan my fall phone-a-thons. So far, I've only scheduled one. I will be going to Iowa State November 15-16. I'm working with Ohio State and possibly Minnesota as my other locations. We'll see!
Chris is doing well - still loving his job! His summer softball seasons are finally over this week. It was a busy summer with 3 softball games each week! He just finished arranging soccer teams for the Shawnee Soccer Club, where he volunteers as the U5 & U6 soccer coordinator.
I'll post pictures from our boating adventure this weekend. I'll see if I have any other new pictures to post too!
