Last night Dean picked me up straight from work to go to Jarod's football practice at the Magna Rec Center. We start walking through the park and I am seeing people that look a little familiar. Suddenly we come up on this big sign that says "Cyprus Class of 1989 Welcome to your 20 Year Reunion!" 1989 . . . Oh my gosh that's me!! Have I really been out of high school for 20 years!?!? Crap I'm old. And if I'm old, then mom and dad you are REALLY old!! : )
Apparently I have moved SO FAR from my former home that they couldn't find me to invite me to the reunion. Oh well. That kind of fits in with high school for me . . . never invited to the party!! But like I said, I had just come straight from chasing 25 six year olds around all day, I was sweaty and it's casual Friday so I was wearing my jeans and school shirt, AND I still had my ID around my neck. Not exactly how you dress for a 20 year reunion. So I had to kind of hide so no one would see me. Of course, Jarod's practice was RIGHT NEXT to the pavillion where they were having the reunion! Man, what a day.
By the way, if you graduate from Cyprus, that is your 20 year reunion - hot dogs at Magna park!!

SNOW?!?!
We took a road trip up the canyon again today. This time it was to take pictures of the pretty fall leaves for DJ's Reflections entry. There are some awesome reds, yellows and oranges up there right now.
It was a stormy/rainy day (of course, it's conference weekend) and as we got further up the canyon we found the rain turning quickly to SNOW!!
Didn't take long for the kids to start singing Christmas carols!
Here we are in front of our "Christmas tree" just dusted with snow. Everything smelled so good up there. It smelled . . . well. . . like CHRISTMAS! (Pine trees and cold).
We actually dragged Lindsie out of the car for this picture.
Catching snow on my tongue!!
Here we were at the peak. Well, as close as we dared go anyway. The roads started getting pretty bad at this point so we turned around and went back down. Before we left Jarod HAD to make a snowball to throw at mom. Notice he has FLIP FLOPS on his feet!!
On our way back down the mountain, this guy jumped out in front of our car (good thing we were down lower where the roads weren't too slick). He wouldn't get out of the road -- just kept walking in front of our car as we drove behind him. Finally he ducked off to the side and down the hill.
