Last night I attended my 20th high school reunion. The reunion took place at the Newport Harbor Yacht Club on the Balboa Peninsula. When we arrived we were given our name badge with our senior picture on it. You've got to love the hair. I was glad to see that EVERYONE had big hair in my class (it was the 80's after all). We had a great turn out (about 1/2 of our class) and I was able to see lots of people whom I haven't seen in a long time (at since our 10 year reunion).
Aimee Eason (now Glenn) and I went to middle school together at Maranatha Christian Academy. I have the pleasure of seeing her every once in awhile around Irvine since she and her family live near by.
These pretty ladies and I went to Elementary School together at American Christian School. The school is no longer around, but I have lots of fond memories of that place. It was a small school with only once class per grade- you knew everyone there. Allison Root and Julie Gendron (now Arny) are both still local and looked just as great tonight as they did in high school.
And here are my girls looking great. We are missing Carrie, but she was off socializing someplace. Even though we had spent many hours catching up during the day, we could not stop chatting it up. Liz came the farthest (all the way from Connecticut) and Rian and Paula flew down from the Sacremento area. I am so glad they made the effort for such a special night. I love you girls!!
It was a great night and a reminder of how special high school was and how glad I am that I transferred to Newport Harbor after a miserable time at CDM. God knew where I needed to be and that was with these girls and many more!!
