Old School!

The other day I was looking through other people's photo's on Facebook and came across some really funny pictures from high school. Actually one of them is the only picture I have from Graduation (my parents didn't take ANY!) It made me think about high school and how many fun memories came out of that time in my life. After moving SO much and having friends and memories in different places it's fun to look back. I may not have many people from my past that I talk to but I will always have the fun memories of those people and times. I am very blessed that there are some very dear people from high school that I still talk to, funny enough I am often surprised by them because, looking back, I would have assumed it would be different people. I am very blessed... although I don't see anyone very often I enjoy the emails, blog comments and phone calls with each person. I am very thankful for a very funny girl that is the mother of 3... her blog always makes me laugh and often reminds me to accept life and make the most out of it. Anyhow... I thought I would share my old school photos, courtesy of Aimee Bartelle (Rinderknecht)

I too am thankful you are in my life... you have a beautiful spirit and it shines. I think I'm closer to you now (funny) then when we were in highschool. I relate to you more now... and the path that you are on (as a mom and a wife.)
