Our 80's reunion

A few years ago when we were in California visiting family and friends we were sitting around talking about the things we did when we were in high school. Someone made the comment of how good it would be to get together with friends from high school. I know high schools have their reunions, but this was different. There were quite a few LDS kids when we were in high school and we all ran around together. We went to two different high schools and were friends with some younger and some older than us. We did early morning seminary and they did the classes by our year in school so we got to know many of the kids in the stake, not just our ward. Well fast forward and several people that still live in the same town we grew up in got together and got a 80's reunion together. We had it the last weekend in July and it was so fun to get together. there were some people that came that I haven't seen in 20+ yrs. Most had not changed that much. A couple were shockers, but despite the extra wrinkles and wider waistbands we looked pretty much the same. We had great food, music, and loved visiting and catching up on what our lives were doing. There are some great pics I saw on Facebook but I don't know how to hijack those so these are just a few that I actually snapped. Not the greatest but a great memory.

These were "the guys". My good friend and I were in another ward and we used to hang out with these guys and head to the stake dances, skating at the skating rink, hanging at the beach or someone's house. There were 3 VW bugs between the them that we would put as many people in as possible, this was before seatbelt laws. So many great memories, so many stories we could tell on each other. We keep them under cover since our kids are too eager to learn of our past deeds.


this was everyone that came on Fri night for the reunion. these are the actual graduates. Interestingly there are many couples in there.
