It's very hard to believe that it has been 20 years since Jason was in high school. We celebrated at the reunion in our hometown this past weekend with lots of laughs and good ol' friends (some whom we haven't seen in 15+ years). Conversations revolved around old stories, jokes, and friendly jabs about teenager situations or misfortunes from the past. It was great, but interesting what people remember about you :) Lots of talk about tormenting Mr. Carl in art class, cheating in geography (Jason, not me), and LOTS about football/locker room stuff, jokes gone wrong, car wrecks, and some other unmentionables. It was a good time!
Overall, his class is looking pretty good (a few surprises, but that's to be expected). I must say, my hubby was one of the most handsome guys there (even with less hair ;). But, no matter how much people change in looks, or mature in behavior and character, you can still see those unique personalities peeking through. Those characteristics that we remember about our childhood friends will always remain.
As we departed, we knew it would be several years or happenstance before we saw some of these people again; however, there are a few old chums who we have committed to getting together with...look out Oklahoma and the E. farm! Our kids will love visiting you; hope we can get together SOON!
