Alta 20 Year Reunion

A couple of weeks ago, I went to my 20 year high school reunion..... sort of.

I grew up in Sandy and attended one year at Alta High. Three days before school started in my junior year, we moved to Salt Lake, where I attended and graduated from East High. I didn't love my time there and didn't make any lasting friends in those two years.

When the time came to go to the 20th reunion, I contacted friends from Alta, who were planning the reunion, and they extended an invitation to me and Sandy. I wasn't sure I was going to see anybody I knew, but thought I'd go and see how it went.

I was so excited to run into friends from junior high and even elementary school. We had a really great time.

Here are the pics from that night.
As we arrived to Snowbird, we saw this moose in the parking lot, drinking from a puddle of water. I think we startled each other equally. I didn't have my camera ready to go, so I used my iPhone:
Greg Hunt from junior high - he also was on the planning committee:
Michael Scott, also from junior high:
Tiffany Uriarte (was Mounteer) from all the way back in Kindergarten:
Tiffany and Sonia Olsen - I didn't recognize Sonia because she was a brunet in high school.
Lisa Eggers Kimmel - from Sunbeams!!
Angie Pantuso Smith:
A group who attended Eastmont (junior high) together. There were others at the reunion, but this is the group we got together from the picture. Tiffany, me, Melanie Fathers Belnap, Liz Watt, Brandi Williams Campbell, Angie Pantuso Smith:

Missing Videos

Last time I posted, my computer was having an internal battle with itself and therefore, me, and didn't want to post any videos (small or large), so I'm trying again today: The first one is from the reunion weekend.

It starts right into the water weenie crashing:


The next several videos are from the Pioneer Day Rodeo in Kamas:








We had such a great time while Sandy was in town. I always realize just how much I miss having her home when she's here.

Echo Lisonbee Reunion

This past weekend we met up at Echo Reservior for our Lisonbee get-together. Angie and Jason brought their adorable (and fast growing) family, their trailer and their new boat. Brent and his children also accompanied them down from Idaho - and that was a wonderful treat.

This was our third year getting together and as usual, it was very nice (minus the BLM and their new "rules").

Here we have Elise playing in the tube. Angie and Jayden. Jayden has grown up SO much since last year. Classic waterweenie experience. From back to front: Madison (Brent's daughter), Carter (Angie's son), Collin (Richard's son), Chris (Lori's son) and Wyatt (Brent's son) Richard joins the crew - you can see Elise has also joined. (The boys ditched the the banana-boat not long into the ride) It's a bumpy ride. Richard falls off the back side. (I love that Collin looks to be half bored) Eric hangs out in the tube.
