Reflecting on 20 years

I graduated from high school almost 20 years ago this June. I'm a Toro through and through. It has been fun connecting with old friends as we prepare for our reunion this fall. I will get some pictures of high school up one of these days, but since today was my last day of classes at ASU for the semester, I am posting these for now.

Me, Jen, Janet, Jennifer. Sadly, we lost Jennifer a few years ago to cancer. I keep her husband and two babies in my thoughts and prayers.

I can't remember this guys name, but he was a baseball player and I thought he was so cute.

I took a sewing class and made this dress then Jen pulled out this dress she had and we totally coordinated. Cool hair, huh?

My cousin, Wayne, saved me that year. I was so glad he was there with me. He had a car and took me lots of places since I didn't have one. He taught me how to drive a stick shift and he was the ring leader of the Dead Prophet Society. I was the only girl. Thanks, Wayne. He left for his mission during second semester, so a bunch of us drove down to Salt Lake to say goodbye at the airport. The picture below is Mike Shurtleff and I at the airport.

I was lucky enough that Mike and his brother, Dave, were introduced to me by Wayne, and they stayed second semester. We had so much fun listening to them play their guitars, having mud fights, taking Korean lessons, eating toast and hot chocolate, motorcycle riding, and wearing their leather jackets. They were so good to me and my roommates. I had the funnest year ever and even used a free airline pass to fly to Oregon to see them off on their missions that summer.

They took me shooting and we had rabbit stew for dinner.

I think this was Jen's cousin, Jason, he was totally cute. Man, I had big hair.
