10 years!

I often get the question asked, "Where are you from?" I find this difficult to answer. I usually say San Diego because my family has been there for the longest and we moved there when I was 14, but here's the rundown

-Born: Salt Lake City

-Stansbutry Park UT til the 5th grade

-Mexico until 9th (ended 8th grade)

-9th Grade Augusta, GA (9 months)

-San Diego from Freshman year til halfway through Sophmore year

-Moved to UT for the last half of Sophmore and beginning of Junior and then back to SD for last half of Junior year and then back to UT for the last half and stayed my Senior year.

So where does that mean I'm from? Your guess is as good as mine. I did run for Senior Class President the end of my Junior Year--no one tells you you'd have to plan reunions for the rest of your life--this might of changed my decision about running. I ended up having the "privledge" of closing out the 20th century at Tooele High School as the President.

I often wondered why I went back. Say what you will about Tooele (most of it's probably true, sorry mom), but some of the best people I know are from there. After going to the reunion I knew exactly why I went back--I love these guys.

aren't we sexy?

Not only do I have rad friends, but they married rad people! I love these guys!

Awww...best friends. Holly and Alana and me and Tom. We were all inseparable. Alana and Tom married each other, Holly and I...would have murdered each other if we were ever together, but as friends we are extremely fun.

Some of my best girly friends...clearly I was closer in this picture than I thought. Don't worry she is married and pregnant--how great does she look?!
10 years ago I could have told you these girls would be the "life of the party"--which means drunk. Still, gotta love em!

I wished all my dates in high school were this hot and ended like this--not so much. I actually don't even think I had a date in high school.
Here are some pics of the venue, The Salt Lake Hardware Building. I searched all over for a place to have the reunion and this was by far the best--it was one of the best parts of the reunion. I felt cool just being there.
Needless to say it was a blast...not sure if I ever want to plan another reunion, but I wouldn't trade this one. Though I find the lyrics of our Alma Mater slightly creepy as they read, "We are here to stay until we die, forever and forever in Tooele", I do know my friendships will last that long.

Thanks for following this long post--I have some very important things I need to get off my chest about Michael Jackshon and Walmart (separately), so look for mean posts ahead.
