This weekend Missy & I were able to outsource the kiddos & the dog and sneak away to Virginia for my 20 year reunion. With kid #6 coming in November and me leaving for South Sudan this evening we figured this was an opportune time to get away. We got to stay with my brother which was awesome (except that his sweet wife Paula was out of town)!
It’s been 10 years since we were last in Woodbridge so we took the opportunity to experience some nostalgia by visiting my old neighborhood, my old high school AND my old junior high & then we had our little reunion get together lats night in Crystal City.
A couple of observations:
- The high school & middle school looked a lot smaller than I remember them
- My friends from high school have gotten OLD!
- I am thankful for a really good high school experience – not perfect by any stretch…but I’ve got good memories.
Here are some pictures of our weekend away:
It was great seeing you, brother! It was even better to see our wives connect so well on this trip. There never seems to be enough time though, does there? Glad to see you made it safely to Sudan. Talk to you soon.
Wow , I didnt know you went to woodbridge middle school ! I did …… when my father retired in 87′ from having 23 years in the army, then we moved to woodbridge thus my teen year has begun.
Wow! What a great time for you guys, although I did not recognize most of your classmates (except Mark Dawson). Our old home looks great.
