Hello and Merry Christmas from long lost "Mustang"...

Hey everyone! Haven't really stayed in touch well, so don't blame you if you don't remember me. Living in Vancouver, Washington now and doing ok. If you'd like to drop me a line, my email is deliliahssampson@live.com (if your wondering, there is a story behind the email account name, but too long to get into here and fairly depressing - not a good topic around the holidays.) Also on Facebook - don't check it very often (maybe once or twice a week), but your welcome to look me up there as well!

Suffice it to say, I'd love to hear from any of you if you have the time and inclination. I know holiday season is upon us and things are hectic, but if you get a chance, drop me a quick hello! I would have loved to have made either of the reunions, however military service interfered the first time and family issues this last time. Take care and hope all is well with each of you and your families where ever you may be.

Merry Christmas! - Malachi

(and like our senior year with the roses at Christmas time - this is a wish for you to have a Merry Christmas from me, not someone else wishing me a Merry Christmas and accidentally putting it in your locker!) ...... ;)

Happy Turkey Day to You All

Where oh where is everyone?
Happy Thanksgiving to each and all of your families. Do you all have plans and traveling in your futures? I will be cooking at home and gathering family at my house. Step-kids and thier friends, my mom, Dave's dad, and cousins....last I counted it was around 14 or so.

Now, I have heard through the grapevine that there have been a meeting or two about this gathering we are having next year. Stace, I am here to help, seriously. If you need a block of time filled up, I have an idea called the Olympics that would fill in time. Also if you give me a list once we are closer to the actual events I would more than love to make the nametags. My husband has a cool machine at work we can use for them.

Anyway, noticed no one has been talking or using the board so I thought I better do something about that. I know with school, work, and all sometimes there isn't time, yet I always find time to see if anyone else has written so I thought maybe I should try and get the ball rolling.

Hope this note finds everyone in good spirits, I know our economy has a way of bringing us down, which blows since it's the holiday season. Would love to hear how everyone else is doing.

Contacting Rob Turner

Rob, I have been sending you emails at the school and they all bounce back. What is up? Is there a new e-mail address we should send things to. Thought if I posted it, you may respond. Just hoping that you and your family are doing well. Keep in touch.

All Class Reunion

So what's the news on the all class reunion? There's a buzz going around about it and some emails being circulated....is there anything official yet?? I had lunch with Brenda & Kory Emond today and asked if they were planning on attending and they were open to it. What about our class, anyone planning on going?? Any reunion will be hard to top our 20th!!!! I still talk about it! Well about how my team finished 1st and I finished 2nd!!!!!!! Anyway, someone give up the scoop and tell us if you know anything and if you plan on attending.

Birthdays and Stuff

Hello Everyone,

My you are all so quiet! I just thought I would break the silence. It just occurred to me that this is approximately the time period when a few of the girls in our class have the same birthday. So Happy Birthday. Don't you wish you could come home and find one of Mrs. Smiths Chalkboard Birthday Cakes. I miss the simple things in life and occasionally long for a time machine so that I can take a break from reality. Also Happy Birthday to all of us because most of us basically never see each other and if we do it's usually not for a birthday.

Take Care

1st day of school

Well, I imagine by now everyone's kids are back in school. How did everyone cope? I'm not gonna lie....I cried like a baby and my child is in 5th grade!! It got me thinking about when we were kids and the first day of school. Does anyone remember any first day of any year? I remember my first day of 5th grade......I thought Mr. Tollefson was so cool and how much fun it was going to be. He put a big damper on that by handing out dictionary pages to some of us. I'm pretty sure that year I copied A-M of the dictionary!!!!!!!

Reunion- NEXT YEAR

Hello everybody! I finally got on this blog. It has been so long, I forgot my password etc. There is an ALL class reunion next summer in conjunction with the City of Malta's 100th birthday. The dates are July 10-12, 2009. Our class needs to send a representative to the planning committee, which will meet after labor day. I guess we need to know what people are thinking/feeling since we just had our awesome reunion and the possibility of Bridgette's camping trip. Let us know. All is well here. Just getting ready for school to start in 3 days. My oldest boy is heading to kindergarten all day, every day. It will be quite an adjustment for me and his little sister. To say I am a little worried is a big understatement. I'll be getting the box of Kleenex out, and Kory, the belly flashbacks will come in handy. HA!
