reunited...

Through the wonder of Facebook, I have recently been reunited with some friends that I have not seen in around 15 years. Carolyn and I were best friends in high school and we kind of lost touch then reconnected a couple of times, but the last time I saw her was probably around 1994. We went out to dinner a couple of weeks ago with another friends, Scott. It was so great to catch up over a nice meal and a bottle or two of wine. I have borrowed these photos from Carolyn's blog (I hope you don't mind, Carolyn). The first one is of us in 1985, the second one 23 years later in 2008. Can you believe that...how old!





The other friend that "found" me on Facebook was Melanie. When I was in Year 11, I decided that I wanted an after-school job. I needed some money to buy records with, you know, it was 1986. So I very bravely walked into this takeaway food shop and asked for a job. The wonderful Faye (Mel's mum) decided to give me a job. At that time I was 16 and Mel was probably 11 years old. She was like the little sister I never had. So fast track to 2008. We are both married now with three kids. Her and I have caught up a few times over the past few weeks but on the weekend all of the kids got to meet for the first time. They had the best time. Jordan and Jazz hit it off like all 5-6year old girls do. Mackenzie and Jett were like long lost twins and the babies, well, we'll have to see what happens when they get a bit older. Here is the result of trying to get a nice picture of all of them together....too funny!

I remember Mel as an 11 year old signing a piece of paper that said she hated boys and would never, ever kiss one... fast track to now and she's married with children!

Wish we still had that piece of paper!
