Ahh, my High School 10 Year Reunion! Such a blast, I had the best time. I am, however, super lame. Why? Considering that I normally take pictures of EVERYTHING, I hardly took any!! I am so mad at myself - I got to see so many rad people from my High School days and not one photo to show for it. The one photo I have? Me, Hannah and Kate. Um - girls I see all the time. I'm an idiot. (Ew...and I hate me in that picture).
Moving on! We met at the park on Saturday afternoon with everyone's kids - SO crazy to see your HS comrades with kids. Afterwards I went to help set up at the Country Club - the place looked awesome. Then I rushed home to finish printing the programs I made for the evening. They turned out so great -
The front and back...
I tried to make the inside look like a yearbook. I heard that people were actually using the 'contact square' to write down people's info - yay!
The dinner that evening was a total blast! It was great catching up with old friends (some of whom I went to Elementary School with!). We stayed very close to Frank, Hannah, Kate, Derek and Camille - love them! The program went really well - I was glad to go first so I could get my song out of the way. I was super nervous/emotional - I was really trying to focus so that I wouldn't start crying (I sang a song to honor those students who have passed since graduation). Afterwards we just walked around and chatted with everyone. At one point the 7 of us went out on the patio and enjoyed some cool night air (it was SO hot inside). That was one of my favorite moments! All in all, I had a total blast. I loved connecting with the people from HS and I hope that we stay in touch. Go T-Birds!

Okay, your reunion sounds so great! Hopefully no one who planned mine is reading this. Ours was okay but I think those programs are so cute and nice that you put an area for people to write down others info. You are super talented. I saw that Natalie Bobik offered to plan the next one. Natalie and I are old friends, she's so peppy! So glad you had a good time, and like me didn't take more photos, darn!
The programs turned out so cute!! You did a great job. I am sad I missed everyone, but I will for sure be there in 10 years!! Let's get together... I'm up for anything!
How come I didn't realize you and Rich were only a year apart in school? Sounds like you had a great time. I can't believe it will be 10 years for me next year- crazy!
