Summer Honors 87

Sunday, January 25, 2009

Hi everyone!

Wow, time flies. Until I heard from Trent I hadn't really thought about how long it's been since we were all goofing off in the name of education at ISU.
So here's what's been going on in my life...
After high school I went to NNU (NNC then) and graduated with a BA in Social Work. I married Chris Jimenez the summer of my Junior year at college and after I graduated we moved to Omaha, NE. We lived there for two years and then moved back to the Treasure Valley. I worked as an Activities Director at a retirement center until our first daughter was born in 1997. I then decided to be a stay at home mom and taught myself how to do residential design, which I have been doing ever since. We had another daughter in 2000 and last summer we built a new house on my family's property out by Marsing. My husband worked at MPC Computers in Nampa for 13 years and was layed of last November. He is still looking for work so if any of you have a project manager job up your sleeve we would love to hear about it.
Thanks Trent for putting together this blog so we could reconnect. I was so sorry to hear about Vicki. I hope we can all keep in touch.

Merry Christmas!

This is the busiest time of year by far for us. Out of the five of us, three have birthdays between Thanksgiving and Christmas!! I'm always amazed when we survive December. I officially now have a teenager and my baby is now 8 years old. Where did the time go? Highlights of the season for us were a fabulous choir concert and a second grade play where my son got to play Santa. Those will be some fun memories. I hope you are making some wonderful memories of your own this season. Merry Christmas everyone!!

Happy Holidays!

I'm, pretty horrible about getting things done on time, so this may be the only Christmas greeting I manage to send. (Hey, it took me 21 years to get this out out, so you do the math!)

If so, please know that the summer of 87 was special to me because it showed me that I could be anything I wanted to be, and you each had a part in driving that point home. Reconnecting with you all has been like a chance to return to that same energizing point and to realize that I can still be anything I want to be.

Thanks for being the cool people you are.

Best to you and yours!
