Ivey Banks Murdock

Ivey Banks Murdock here! It makes me sad to say that I won’t be home to Opelika for this year’s reunion but I’m counting on being back for 20th! Hard to believe that it was 15 years ago when I moved 15 minutes away from my doorstep to my dorm room at Auburn where I went on to meet my husband (Brian Murdock). After graduating from Auburn, Brian and I were married, we moved to Nashville, Tennessee where we have been living for 10 years. I worked in Alumni and Development at Vanderbilt University but “retired” to be a stay at home mom when Banks was born. Brian is a Senior Project Manager for American Constructors.

At this moment I’m in the kitchen starting dinner for my family while Banks (6 years) and Sally (4 years) watch Pet Star on Animal Planet and baby Ridge (16 months) tries to eat crayons. I can’t pull myself away from the computer with Square Dance rap playing!

Banks returned on Sunday from a week in Opelika and I am so jealous I didn’t get to go as well! My parents are still in Opelika and so I do get back a couple of times a year. Unfortunately, it won’t be the weekend of the Reunion--- Brian has a work trip that takes us to Pebble Beach, California. I’ll be thinking of you all and want to hear stories about your time together!!
