My fourth folder only had one picture in it. I went to the fifth folder and went to #4. This is it!
This is from 5 years ago when all of Dad's childhood friends turned 50!!! They were all together when they turned 40. They decided to get together for their 50th Birthdays and invite the wives this time! We met in Carlsbad and spent a frantic, crazy, hilarious weekend. I'll introduce everyone starting with the left:

Gary Oddou and Jane. It was their house. He's really quiet but quirky! He's the guy that has only spoken French to his children and dog! They have a vacation home in France.

Steve Baldwin and Judy. They live in Corona and I've become good friends with Judy lately. He owns a pizza place in Long Beach. We had our last reunion, Aug. 22nd, at their home. The guys are all now turning 55! Steve's the guy I asked for a ride to Institute when Dave thought he needed to date some other people....Steve turned me down because he couldn't be seen with "Dave's girl!" I wasn't happy...I had to wait for him to come back to me and it's been 33 years!

David Greer and Susan. They live in Provo. Susan is sitting on the couch and doesn't seem too impressed with the 6 stooges! They are a hoot and there was nothing funnier than David singing the Chuck Barry song during our Keroake time....He sang "My ding-a-ling!" We were laughing so hard, we all felt sick! They couldn't join us for this last reunion. We really missed them! Their oldest son David married his wife on His and her birthdays, 7-7-07.

Tony Goodall and Sue. They live in Austin, Texas. Tony is a crazy guy! Sue is very talkative, more than me! They always have interesting stories about their kids. Their 19 year has gone a little off the deep end. She got a tatoo on her back. I asked what it was of and you won't believe this......

A typewriter! Guess she loves typewriters but has never owned or used one!??? Guess there could be worse things to have on your back....

Kent Williams and Kelly. They live in Tucson. Kent was the best man at our Wedding. They weren't able to come to the last reunion. We missed them and the Greer's so much. I'd say we're closest to them. We missed them so much, we're going to see them Nov. 16-20!

Last but not least, David Bills and Janine. We have tons of fun with everyone and just laugh!

Don't you love the party hats! We're all trying to go on a cruise together. Judy Baldwin doesn't want to go, she gets sick. We're just going to drug her and bring her along. She can be our "Weekend at Bernie's" prop!!!

Hope you enjoyed meeting our friends! I'll have to download the pictures from the most recent reunion. I'm not sure how to download the CD and get pictures from it. Someone will have to tell me how to do that...

:) Yep! Just like that Mom! I will show you later if you have trouble! That was a fun post! I need to start doing more of those with my high school friends! I guess it will probably work better when we are all more well established and our kids are older though!
