50TH High School Reuntion


I no sooner got home from Retreat in Los Osos then it was time to trade out suitcases and get on the road again.  

We had our 50th DeAnza High School reunion held in El Sobrante Calif.  I still can't believe it has been 50 years.  



We snapped photos in the hotel room before going down to the party.  Here I am.  

Here is Paul.  We were High School sweethearts.

At the reunion there were four couples that had been married 50 years,  We were all honored with
a cake.

It was really interesting as three of the four couples were all sitting at the same table.  (NO Not Planned).
I can't wait for the photos that were taken that night to be put on a CD and I can see everyone again.  It was wonderful and sad at the same time.  We have so many classmates on the deceased list.  We miss them all.

Thanks for stopping by.

Our Breakfast table.  Each person was responsible for a meal.  Of course we had to have Mimosas with our wonderful breakfast.  

Just another angle.

Juanita's Baby Quilt

Sharon, Brenda, Joan and Juanita

Persis and Marcella - Kitchen duty.

We had a block exchange this retreat. Each person  was given 1/2 yard of the same fabric and it had to be used somewhere in their block.  What fun it was to see all the different ideas people came up with.
Can't wait to get my blocks put together.

Thanks for stopping by.
