Flashback Friday

Here we are at Junior Prom.  As you can see I have been a Ute for a long time!  This was the first formal school dance that Jonny and I went to together.  (I didn't realize how cheesy that back ground was.) Pictures like these are bitter sweet in many levels.  I still remember how nervous I was before Jonny picked me up that night. All I remember about the party is dancing The Way You Look Tonight, and kissing my future husband-to-be! Stay tuned for more... Cindy and Allisen.

Amazing



It's amazing to think that I lived to see the day that the Fifteenth and Nineteenth amendments were fulfilled to the fullest extent. History shows us the struggles of women and African Americans and I love to be witnessing these life changing, history making events. I can't wait to vote!

Greenies

So we (Jonny and I) have our very own blog! How exciting. The beginning-- We got hitched on April 12, 2008, thus the title. Then we spent a few days in San Francisco, resulting in our firmer buns and thighs, all thanks to those unforgiving hills and the absence of a car. (Pictures to come.) Before all that happened, we said our first words in the commons area of Hunter High during our sophmore year. A few dates, kisses, I love you's and I do's later, we find ourselves here. I think that sums up everything quite well. Over and out!
