My life has changed quite a bit since our 20-year reunion. Last year we moved to the Bend, Oregon area and we absolutely love it! Since the relocation, I have been concentrating on work - I am now a therapist- and acclimating to this outdoor mecca. I'm hiking to waterfalls, floating the river through the middle of town, and immersing myself in the yogalisciousness of it all!

The hubs is still a contractor - trying to restart in another state with few contacts has been interesting. My oldest son Kyle moved out last year and is making his go in the movie industry. Our middle child is about to start her sophomore year at Central Oregon College, majoring in...theater. And our youngest daughter is about to start high school where she wants to concentrate on...drama. Needless to say, it's never dull around our house!

*Everything is not life and death at this age!
*Spend more time with your family - they won't always be around.
*Expand your horizons and realize that your life doesn't revolve around who you're going to the dance with on Friday.
*Don't ever stop being so brave that you go after whatever you want.
*Just say no to the parties at Cal Poly and go back to your dorm room to do your homework!
*Finish college the first go-round!
*Don't be in such a rush to get married.
*Don't obsess about your weight - you're hot!

These are more fun than funny:
*I remember having the best time out at the Ag farm and being in FFA. There was so much freedom out at the Ag Farm and going to the fair all week to show my lambs was awesome.
*Being a flag girl and going on band trips to Disneyland and Great America.
*Being on the Jr/Sr Prom committee. Decorating the memorial building was so much fun.
I had a great time in high school!
