I survived....

Well...the week is over and I survived and it was a BLAST!!!!

Seeing friends that I hadn't seen in 10 years....I was worried I wouldn't recognize some. But as soon as I walked up to the football stands on Friday night and looked down I instanted recognized a dear friend....I think we both yelled and ran to each other!!! LOL!!! Lots of catching up...then a great surprise to see a friend who I didn't think would be there. A friend I have known since I was a baby...almost cried seeing her. She was my matron of honor and only lives an hour away (in the same town we went to school in) but life hasn't brought us together for about 6 years.

Saturday family picnic and Saturday night dinner/dance brought more fun, more time to visit and catch up. My fears of not recognizing people never really came to life as most of the people I really was excited to see I instantly knew who they were....like they had stepped out of our yearbook!!! There were a few of the "WHO is that???"...but usually for the people that I really didn't know well in school.

One thing I noticed was that we still kind of grouped together like we would have in high school. Saturday's lunch had those of us who were there sitting where and with those that we would have sat with 20 years ago. Dinner was the same....those who were close in school sat together and unfortunately some really didn't try to mingle with others. But I saw those I wanted to...caught up with those who I hadn't seen in 10-20 years and left me hoping that we don't lose contact again!
