I was scrapbooking and came across these pictures. Wow have times changed!! These are our friends from college, Rob & Michele, and Shawn & Amy. Some of these pictures were taken during our trip to the Dominican Republic in April 2003. What a trip that was--- the Paris restaurant lost power while we were eating, so we had to finish our meal by candlelight. The hotel ran out of beer because it was holy week and didn't get any deliveries. Rob & Steve went fishing- The only thing they got was a sunburn☻ Michele burned her forehead so bad that it puffed out like a beluga whale. Amy made a dance to "Love Shack". Shawn & Amy had cockroaches in their bed. The showers had windows in them that people could look in.
The other pictures were taken at some Toledo Rockets football games. We would tailgate before the games and then cheer our rockets onto victory. (Who could forget the cheer: T-O-L-E-D-O, Toledo, Rockets☻) All of us except Steve were also in the marching band at UT. So of course we would critique each week's halftime performance. (I don't think we could sit through another performance of Malaguena)
Since then, we all have grown up a bit. We all now have our own "little rockets". Shawn & Amy have welcomed two beautiful girls into their family, Katherine & Lauren, and Rob & Michele have welcomed their darling daughter Kendal and handsome son Griffin to their lives. Instead of worrying about vacations, we now worry when the next Gymbuck sale occurs at Gymboree! Halftime performances & the football excitement have been replaced by Elmo's World and Veggie Tales. It's funny how we now have the same enthusiasm for over sized stuffed vegetables and a red furry puppet that we had for vacations & football. Yes it's crazy how time changes you. But we wouldn't change it for the world♥
