Listen up everyone!!

The posts have slowed down a little so I am sending a little information on the reunion and Duchesne County fair.

The reunion is being held on Aug. 11 (Saturday) in the high school. Muir's smokehouse does not cater anymore so we are still up in the air for food. Please send any ideas over.

The fair is full of fun events for the whole family. I have enclosed a list below.

Blast from the past

Yes I had to do it. I went searching and found pictures from the day. Here are some pictures from the very distance past.






That would be the 1984 style.


That would be celebrating a win over Beaver (1985)!









That would be junior prom 1986











Now it is your turn. I am finding pictures of quite a few people so if I don't see you posting pictures of yourself I am sure I can find a few of you. GET POSTING!!!

Hello From The Spencer Family

Hello from Twentynine Palms California, sorry I haven't posted sooner but between my 4 little girls and my wife exspecting our 5th little girl we are a very busy family. It has been fun reading all the postings from everyone.

I thought I would catch you all up on me and what I have been up to.

I work for the County of San Bernardino running heavy equipment, after driving truck for 12 years I finally decided to find a job that allows me to stay at home with my family. Between work, my church callings and my family I have a very busy life, but still find time to watch wwe wrestling and Nascar with my little girls(at the dismay of my wife)Hahahahaha

Next I would like to introduce my Family, the Picture at the top Is of Me and My Little One's From Left to right Is Jessie Lynn our 14 year old, Rebecca Rayna our 3 year old, Dani Grace Our 1 Year old and Michelle Vachon our 7 year old. and the Last Picture Is of me and My Lovely Wife Christina.

I was hoping to attend the reunion but it looks as we may not be able to being that we have a new baby on the way and that happens to be monsoon season out here in the desert and my boss isn't big on giving time off during the rainy season but we might sneak up anyway we will see. I am looking forward to getting back in touch with many I have lost contact with, It has been fun seeing what has gone on in everyone's lives and how they have changed in some cases or not in others. I look forward to blogging with you all soon.

Jessup Funny Farm (Lisa Paulson)

I'm not sure if "Jessup Funny Farm" is the most accurate description of our family's state of mind or our livelihood. You decide!
I have been married to my husband Eric for almost 19 years, and we own 250 acres of land in Adamsville (Beaver). We have about 100 dairy cows, 3 ducks ( 1 recently deceased after our foster care meeting, but that's another story). We have a bunny, a few wild cats, and 2 neighborhood dogs that think our home is theirs. We have lots of farm vehicles but never seem to have anything that runs.
Our state of mind stems from a choice we made 3 years ago to learn about foster care. We loved the classes and decided to give it a try. We got a 1 1/2 yr. old boy and his 3 yr. old sister 2 years ago. We had forgotten how hard and fun small children are. These 2 broke us in very fast as they are extremely hyper active, not shy, and outspoken. Things didn't work out for them to return home, so we adopted them last April. They keep us on our toes, and we have learned to not get so embarrased by what they say and do. For instance, the following comments came out of their precious mouths about the people in front of us in the check out line: "Mom, That lady's a jerk, huh?" "Mom, why'd that guy color all over himself?" (Tatooes) They never talk quietly either. Then just before Christmas, foster care said they needed a home for a baby for a short time. We took him and are happy to be adopting him in 2 weeks. He has been sick a lot and broke his arm for his 1st birthday, just as guests were arriving.
So now we are experiencing diapers and bottles with our youngest and driving, planning for a mission and college with our oldest. My husband says he's glad he didn't build our house any bigger, because then I would want more children.
I love my husband and children and am so glad to be a mother. I love being home with the little ones; Although, I am somewhat crazy half of the time. My other children are growing up fast. Ashton will be a Senior next year. Shalisha will be a Sophomore. Jenessa is going into 6th grade. Sharlee is 5 yrs. old. Jayton is 3, and Briston is 1.
I'm not very good with the computer, as you have probably already guessed from my blank messages. So hopefully this will work. If I'm really lucky, I'll figure out how to put this and pictures on the web sight. Danen said this is really easy. YEAH RIGHT!!!!!

Lynda (Randolph) Phillips Family

Thanks to the Blog-Master (aka: Danen) and a quick break from what I call work, I can now introduce my family to the Class of 87.

I finally with great reluctance settled back in Utah. I left my heart in Seattle though. Very jealous of Tom right now. I have two great kids.
Brittany is 16, need I say more. Jimmy is 12, basketball is his life.

I work in the Sports and Entertainment industry and at an Elementary. Most of my friends would tell you I work too much, but I enjoy what I do.

If I had to sum up the last 20 years I'd say minus a couple of curve balls thrown my way. I've had a lot more slam dunks.



Life is Good!

Where did everyone go???

I hope everyone doesn't forget about this keeping in touch thing ;). I know everyone is busy I just hope this wont fizzle out and everyone forgets to keep in touch.

This is me and of course my Baby.
