The beautiful campus of Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa welcomed us last weekend as we visited Grady's Alma Mater for its Homecoming weekend. It was a gorgeous, sunny fall day last Saturday and we took advantage of it by spending a few hours walking around and hearing many stories of Grady's undergraduate time there. This year the university celebrates its 150th anniversary and the architecture truly reflects its glorious history (even reminding me a bit of Europe!). And of course, we hit the bookstore to get decked out in our own crimson and gold! Thanks to Grady's old roommate Aaron and his family for hosting us!
