Sheila's wedding

Sheila and Joe's first "married" kiss :)

Sheila is one of my best friends from college...she's been living in Phoenix for many years now,...but we've always kept in touch. She was the most beautiful bride---looked just like Vanna White :) I especially loved her dress...the pink trim was gorgeous!

We didn't know a soul there...but still managed to have a good time.

A beautiful day for a white wedding...

another reunion!

This one is from a get together of old, new and current ESL TA's. We started the nite off with a little competition @ the local mini-golf course and ended on a high note w/ a few drinks at our usual watering hole. I've SO enjoyed working with all of you and will continue to rely on you for innovate ideas and support! :) Best wishes to you all!

summertime...

Dustin's Dad took us out fishing a couple weekends ago...we caught a few keepers and enjoyed beautiful weather in Randall, Minnesota. We like nothing more than being out on the lake...
Dustin shows us his,..ahem...fishing stance :)

we're gonna miss these days in a couple of months

high school reunion

A few weeks ago I was reunited with two of my best friends from high school. Michelle (on the left) currently lives in Minnesota, but Jill (middle) has been out of the country (in JAPAN!) for the last few years....she has finally moved back to the States but will be living out in Virginia. She has two little daughters --Despina is pictured above. They are THE cutest kids....EVER!

Though our paths continue to cross sporadically, they are still wonderful friends! :)

let the summer BBQs begin

After a day of fun and drinks at the disc golfing course, we finished up with some good friends, yard games, brews and a bon fire. Summer is finally here---at last --- it IS June after all!
