I love being a Mom and Grandma, living in the country but not far from Dallas, have a horse, ducks, bunnies a dog and fish in our pond. I work with my husband with his construction co. and take care of my 98 year old Mom who is adorable

Always remember the days we all would go to the store by George Peabody and buy jaw breakers before school and get in trouble with Miss Simmons (2nd grade teacher) square dancing was really fun Phillip Wood was my partner in crime dancing we were actually pretty good!Remembering when we would have to do the ringworm/lice test and see some kids with a hose on their head with the hair saved off. Having cookouts at my house My mom being a girl scout leader and we would have the Boy Scouts over and telling scary stories. Sandy Ray lived by a sanitarium so we really told scary stories and sometimes think we would see people in white coats coming up my yard. Riding our bikes to Stockard for drill team practice so early and then stop by Page Drug Store to buy vanilla cokes. I do remember going to the Military Ball my Sr year with Steve Johnson. wow that was cool to see Sunset as that is where I was suppose to go had I not moved and pouted ever since. We both had a good time he was my BF in 7th grade!! at Peabody. a fun thing when we were Srs. Kimball, Sunset, SOC and Adamson all got together at Kiest Park and looked for Herbie the ghost well we girls never found him but the guys had fun. Then as Srs we had won the KLIF spirit party with Ron Chapman. We also boycotted the lunchroom as someone found hair in their food boy was Mr. Durett mad he made an announcement and was so mad at us

Miss Tarver, my firs grade teacher,and Miss Buttons, third grade, Miss Wright 7th grade we got to go the the show at a big discount sometimes free she worked at the vogue theater on Saturdays. Mr. Rhome, he taught Texas History, if you knew things about his son Jerry and I did my brother went to Sunset with him, you would be in good with him and he would help you in history class. The worst ones sorry to say was my 2nd grade teacher ,and Mr. Knox my 9th grade homeroom teacher. If we talked, he would make you stand in the corner and stand on your toes with you arm stretched to the top until he said you could sit down. Bad memories of that one and im sure many had him

Michele Carter and I have kept up through the years ever since 2nd grade. Barbara Rodens niece went to Dallas Christian HS with my son. Just recently Phillip Wood and Steve Johnson on FB and CM.
