Some old pictures of us...

Our story really starts in high school. Kim asked Brent to the Sadie Hawkins dance and they wore matching shirts, jeans, and even matching Vans. The other two are our friends Monica and Steve.














We were friends for a long time first... we went on a trip to Palm Springs together during our senior year at Villa Park High School. Our friends, Sarah, Monica, and Jill were there too!

























Then on a very HOT day in June 1996, we graduated from high school together... and started dating a few weeks later. At the end of the summer we left for college - Brent to USC and Kim to Westmont in Santa Barbara.

We dated for the first two years of college, seeing each other on weekends and during the summer. We spent many a summer day at Brent's family beach house in San Clemente.

Grandma June turns 80!

Yep! Kim's Grandma June turned 80 on April 1, 2007. We had a big party at Kim's parent's house. And Grandma June was all smiles! She got to see many old friends, eat some of her favorite foods, and sing to an audience. It was wonderful to honor her 80 years of life!

Her cousin, Alfred, came all the way from Pennsylvania for the big event! He sang a solo and a duet with grandma June for the evening entertainment.









Grandma June loved telling stories all night... one has many good stories by the time they are 80! We enjoyed hearing them!













She got to wear a tiara at dinner! The theme of the evening was "sparkle" and jewelry! Her fav...




















She embarrassed Kim's mom when she talked about how well Evelyn takes care of her! It was so cute!























Kim did the centerpieces for the tables... all pink! The tables turned out amazing. So beautiful!











Todd was home! It was great to see him... and in a shirt and tie! WOW!



















Kate and Laura were there too! It was such a blessing to have Laura there to help... she was awesome and did so much for Evelyn!





We had a great time!




















At the end of the night Kim helped Grandma open her gifts... she got so many nice things!














Brent's parents joined us for the big occasion. They love Grandma June!











Ted enjoys being the center of attention... just kidding! We made him pose like this...
















Kim's parents really out-did themselves with this party. It was amazing! Thank you!!
















Evelyn had a wonderful time and did such an amazing job on the planning the whole party. Her feet were dying by the end. Ray was kind enough to rub her feet!




























Our friends agreed to serve at the party! It was fun to have them there and they were AWESOME! They did such a good job. Thank you Allison, Allegra, Christan, Sean, and Shannon!!
