Hey Becca!

I haven't heard anything about a reunion. I can't wait till the next one either! I had soooooooooo much fun!

Thank you for sending me the information on Donny and Lee. They are now added to the Memory Page. If you happen to know the dates of the deaths...let me know and I will add that also.

I hope this message finds you doing great!! Have a great weekend!

Hey Kimberly!

I hope a lot of people also join. I think it is so much better than classmates.com or reunion.com. Those two sites make it impossible to share email addresses, numbers or whatever. Not to mention, if you or the recipient aren't a paying member, you don't get to read your messages. I hope by doing this site, we can all stay in touch!

I still have a few other things that I am working on, so bare with me. There will be some changes going on. I am going to add a slideshow on the homepage with pics from the reunion and I also want to add the best songs from 1986 on here as well.

Have a great weekend!

Lisa,

Thanks for sending out the emails. I have numerous emails as well that I will be sending out.

Do you have any pics from the reunion? If so, can you go ahead and scan them? I would like to put a small slide show on the homepage and add all the pics on it. I would love to see everyone add their reunion pics too.

I don't know how much time I am going to have to work on it this weekend. One of my sisters is in town from Texas and I am going to be spending time with them today and we are racing tonight. We won't get in till tomorrow morning sometime. So, I don't know how much I will get done Sunday and we will be at the lake Monday if the weather allows.

Tina Odom (Anglin) Wow, Thanks so much for all of the effort you must have put into this. It is interesting to see all of the names that I have forgotten since graduation. Can't wait to catch up with everyone! Tina Odom Anglin

Lisa Phillips (Wilson) Kim, I actually don't have any pictures from the reunion. Dumb me forgot to take my camera! I will try to get some high school pics scanned sometime soon. My in-laws are here this weekend. I sent out about 15 emails so hopefully more people will join soon. Lisa

No need to thank me! I am just tickled we all have a new place to communicate a lot easier!

Lisa, your not the only one who forgot your camera for the reunion! I was running behind, so I left mine too! That's why I would like to find some folks who actually didn't forget their camera! lol

I sent out about 70 emails this morning, so we will see how that goes. A lot of the email addresses were people's work email addresses, so they probably won't get the message until Tuesday!

Tina, thank you for the very sweet note! It's great hearing from you!!

If anyone happens to see that I left someone off, please let me or Lisa know so we can get them added. I realized this afternoon I had left off a few! I am going to add them as soon as I have time because its 2:15am and we just got in from racing and I am EXHAUSTED!

Rebecca Stebbins (Moreno) Kim - I have a few from the 20 year that I will send you. And maybe a couple from the 10 year. Have a great Labor day! :) Becca

Becca,

That would be great! I would really appreciate that. Just make sure you seperate your pics and let me know which ones were from the 10 year and which ones were from the last reunion.

Ok everyone! I finally got the music loaded and I also added a chat room for those who are interested in that. It's not one of those hightech ones like yahoo or aol has, but it will work for now until I can find something better. :)

Don't worry, all the crazy folks out there in cyberland aren't there! It's just for the 1986 classmates! ;)

Kim, This is so awsome. My husband's class has this same web site and it has been a huge success. His classmates get together more often now. And because of the web page they had a great turn out for their 30th reunion. His is www.mcclellan1983. I have some reunion pictures. I'll have to look for them. I'll get them to you one way or another. Thanks for all your work on this. I will pass the word along to sign up. Deanna Parker-Porter Oh you know who was taking a lot of pictures, Daron Mcafee maybe someone knows how to get a message to her.
Thanks, Deanna

Hey everyone! Kim...YAY! You ROCK! Ok, now that I am on, I have pictures from the reunion as well. I will find them this weekend and get some posted. If anyone is interested in doing a 25 yr. reunion I will be happy to help! We should probably start planning soon so we have a good turn out and give everyone plenty of time to make plans!

So glad we are up and running with this! Stackhouse...thank you!

Hello Deanna!

I am glad your here! How have you been doing?

Did you guys have any damage from the storms? We lost power Tuesday evening and we didn't get it back on till after 9pm lastnight. We have a few limbs down in the yard and it started flooding our downstairs. We finally got all the water up and it has been drying out. Now, I get to have the fun of putting all the furniture back in place! NOT!! lol

Yes, I know who Jeff and Kayla are. My mother is one of Jeff's mothers old classmates also. They still talk often.

My brother Mike Oliver (stepbrother) is the one who told me about the class creators and told me that we needed to get one for our class also. He was in the same class at Jeff also. He gave me his log on and let me check out their site. I loved it because it was so much easier to navigate and unlike classmates.com, it's free for all of us! I saw all the reunion pics also. Those were great and Mike has done nothing but talk about how much fun they had at their reunion and their little get togethers since then. I just hope we can get everyone joined up on here!

Thanks for telling me about Daron taking a bunch of pictures. I know Paul Rumbaugh has stayed in touch with her over the years. I have his email address. I will email him and see if he can give me her email address or write her and tell her about the site.

Have a great day Deanna! :)

Hey Leigh!

Well, I see it finally worked for you! lol I went ahead and went back onto your profile and marked you as an administrator also. I will send you an email and give you the system password. I appreciate you wanting to help! With my brother Scott's health issues and my daughters health issues, there are times when I will have my hands full with them and I won't be able to get on here and tend to things. However, I would always let you and Lisa know! If anyone else is interested in becoming an administrator also, just let me know! I want opionions and ideas on the site. I want this to be fun for all of us!

Thanks for the help with the pics also!! Rebecca, Lisa and Deanna also have pics and they are going to try and find theirs also.

I agree on the 25th reunion! The girls did such an awesome job on the last one!! I will also help with that if they would like me too.

Have a great day Leigh!

Kim, Tony Johnson is moving back to the US from Japan in Oct. He thinks they will be in Texas. I got his e-mail from his sister if you have not already talked to him. Anthony.s.johnson@us.army.mil I'm going to look for the pictures this weekend when things slow down. I should have looked yesterday when I was stuck at home with flood waters everywhere. I hope you didn't have to much damage from the weather. Deanna

Kimberly Kirkpatrick (Jewell) I have pictures from the 10 year and 20 year reunion also. As soon as I can I will look for them and get them to you! Great job on this website! I am really enjoying it!

Dana Miller (Emmons)

This is awesome! I hope we all touch base with one another and maybe help find some of the long lost classmates. Anyone heard from Danna Williams? I have tried to locate her, but no luck. I am willing to assist with any reunion plans for the future. I can help out from Texas, anytime!!! For those who didn't make it to the 20th, you missed a FABULOUS time!!! I look forward to the next one!!!

Tina Odom (Anglin) Looks like I missed a great 20 yr reunion. Guess I'll have to rely on this site to keep me up to date.

09/05/08 08:13 AM	#22
Kimberly Kirkpatrick (Jewell) I want to find Carlynn Martin if anyone knows where she is! I miss her!

Deanna, thanks for Tony's email address. We didn't have to much damage. Nothing that can't be fixed or replace anyway.

Girl, I wouldn't have done anything Wednesday either if I didn't have to. That was such a yucky day! A good day to just kick back and relax snuggled up on the couch with a big afghan!

Kimberly, thanks for wanting to help with the reunion pics. When you email them to me, please put "Reunion Pics" in the subject area. :) I am glad you are enjoying the site. I added a "Remember When" link today. I still have some tinkering to do with the page and some more things I want to add to it. I will have to wait till the weekend or next week to finish it. I have a ton of things I need to get done today.

Dana, I haven't heard anything about Danna. Do you know where Kim Dennis is at these days? I still think about our old cheerleading days from time to time! haha Both of my wrists give me problems till this day from that old accident Trish and I had in my backyard from practicing!

Tina, you did miss a great reunion! I missed the 10 year one, but I won't miss anymore. This isn't going to be a temporary site, it's here to stay so everyone can stay updated! I can't wait to see you at the next one. :)

Donnie, don't let all us women talking scare you off! :) Thanks for jumping in and saying hello. I hope you and your family didn't have any damage from the storms.

Can anyone scan me a pic of Donny Luzader and Lee Henderson and send it to me for their memory page? Lisa offered to do it, but her scanner is down right now. I would do it, but I no longer have my yearbook. :(

I'm trying to find a way to get the music to play throughout the site instead of just on the homepage without having to do a html code on all the pages. For now, you guys can pause the one on the homepage and click on the popout player. When you do that, another window will open up with the player and you can minimize it and still surf the site. Just make sure you pause the one on the homepage if you do that or the popout player will compete with the original player on the homepage. Now that I have probably totally confused you, I hope you all have a FABULOUS weekend! ;)

09/05/08 11:37 AM	#24
Kimberly Kirkpatrick (Jewell) If I get a chance this weekend I will try to scan those pictures of Donnie and Lee for you.

Thanks Kimberly!!

I noticed you live on Congo Rd. Girl, we are practicly neighbors! I live off of Congo Rd on Sunny Oaks. That's the road where the big gray two story house sits on the corner.

That was some scary weather the other night! That was as scary as having a tornado headed your way!

Did you have any damage?

Tonya Sparrow (Fair) you are absolutely the best :) thank you for being so thoughtful with your efforts...... I am so proud of you :) love you girl, tonya

Cheryl Covill I can send any photos needed. I have my yearbooks and a scanner. I'll scan Lee Henderson's pic from the yrbk. Just let me know of any others and where to send them.

09/06/08 01:46 PM	#28
Cheryl Covill OOPS...forgot to mention I also have pics from the 2006 Reunion.
