Some of us got together over Thanksgiving break. It was so nice to see these girls and catch up on their lives! It had been since High School since I saw most of them. I still can't believe that we are all grown up, and I am sure most of us feel that way.


The two little munchkins are Preston and Paisley meeting each other for the first time.


Thanks Nicole for letting us have this little get together at your home. It was perfect!!

Hey all! Sorry that I haven't posted yet. This is such a great way to get together with everyone from high school. After graduation, I worked for a while at Idaho Fresh Pak to save money to go on my mission. I left on September 11, 2002. I will always remember that. I served in the Calgary Canada Mission and loved every minute of it. I planned on coming home early in order to start school, but ended up coming home earlier than I thought because my companion got into trouble and I had to escort him home, so my mission president decided to let me leave one transfer earlier than planned. When I got home, my family took a trip back up to Canada where they were able to see the areas of my mission. It was a blast. I got in touch with Rigby High School 2002 graduate, Charlene Stoltenberg. She was attending Idaho State University in Pocatello. One month after returning home from my mission, we were engaged and married that December. One year later, we were blessed with our first child. A little baby girl named Melody Dawn. Just recently, we had our second child. Another little girl that we named Emilie Joy. We are currently staying busy. Charlene is almost done with school, getting ready to do her student teaching, after which I will go to school and get my degree in computer drafting and design. We live in Rigby, but will be moving back to Pocatello at the start of the year. We are a typically busy family of four and love to spend time together. It has been so nice to catch up with everyone to see how they were doing. Most of the pictures I am including are of our kids. There is one family one that includes a friend of Charlene's outside the Twin Falls Temple during their open house.

Hey everyone,

So I guess technically i didn't graduate from Rigby but I did go to school with you guys for a little over three years so that counts right. After getting married in Oct 2000 of our senior year I transferred to Madison High in Rexburg (big mistake I hated it there). Then I decided to get school over with and went to Central where graduated in March of 2001. After that me and my husband just worked and lived in Sugar City. About 9 months after that we decided to move to Jackson Hole where we lived and worked till I found out I was pregnant with our first baby. So we decided to move to Logan Ut were our daughter Tycee was born on Aug 2 2002. We lived there for 2 1/2 years then moved back to Idaho were in 2005 our second daughter Azhlinn was born. Then in 2006 we decided to move back to Utah but this time it was Clearfield Ut. I was working for a loan company so I transferred. While there I went to school for esthetics. While in Utah Jareds little brother who was 14 at the time came to live with us and is still with us. In June of 2008 we got the opportunity to move back to Idaho for a job for Jared. I finished school in Aug and we moved. Now we are living in Idaho Falls and are glad to be back.

Elaina had her baby!



Hey Everyone!
Here are the pictures I've been meaning to send out when I had a chance. So, here they are. The first one is of Justin and Annalisa. It's a little fuzzy but it the only picture we got of him smiling. The other picture is of Annalisa and I at the hospital. Scary pic of me! I guess you can't look very good after having a baby. She actually came out natural as well. On Monday I went to my dr. appt. and when the dr came in and said I was at a 3 1/2 he sent me to the hospital because I was in labor. He told me what a strong women I am for going this long without any problems. I couldn't feel half of the contractions that the screen was showing. When I was at a 6 I still couldn't feel half the contractions. The nurse didn't check me and I started getting really hard contractions then I called for an epidural when they were getting really bad. Put the epidural needle in and I laid down and right then I told the nurse she's crowning. The epidural didn't even have a chance to take an effect really. They called to get the dr. in immediately and the nurses were scrambling around to get the baby stuff in the room. The nurse was holding her head in because it was coming out without me even pushing. When the dr came in barely got his gloves on I pushed once and she was here. Weirdest feeling when I felt her come out. She was actually face down this time instead of face up like Justin was.
The dr. said, "We know for next time when you are having really hard contractions you better come in NOW!" My dr. didn't have time to come in she was here before he found out. My labors must be coming a lot faster now. This scares me on the next baby I will have. If I will get to the hospital in time before I have a baby again. CRAZY!!
This is a little bit about what happened and enjoy the pics.

Love, Elaina

After high school I went to BYU-Idaho. When my first year ended I went back home to wait for the next semester start. My sister lived in Rexburg going to school so I always hung out with her. One night we thought it would be fun if everyone set each other up on blind dates. Well, it turned out to be really fun because, that is where I met Curtis. He wasn't my date but, half way through the night my friend and I decided to switch dates. I ended up with Curtis and we've been with each other ever since. We met September 27th, 2002 and was married in the Idaho Falls Temple December 27th, 2002. After the wedding we moved to Rexburg, Idaho where we both continued our education. After starting school again I decided what I really wanted to do was go to Beauty School. I was signed up to go when my doctor told me I had to get my Thyroid abliterated. Before I got married I was diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism. I was really sick at that point because my medicine wasn't controlling the levels of my Thyroid properly. I put my health first and was unable to finish school at that time. I ended up working at Rexburg Nursing and Rehabilitation where I earned my CNA license and worked to put my husband through school. Eventually I want to return to become a Nurse. I worked for 2 1/2 years before we had our first baby. I had her on July 20, 2005. Her name is Lydia. Curtis graduated BYU-I with his Bachelors degree and then we moved to Twin Falls, Idaho. 20 months later on April 3, 2007 we had our second baby. His name is Brody. Our kids are the pride and joy of our lives. Curtis has a great job working for Health and Welfare in Twin and I stay at home with our two kids. We are so happy and love every minute we get to spend with our families.

Hey everybody! After a semester at BYU, I served a mission in Paraguay, Asuncion. After arriving home and returning to BYU, a family friend introduced me to my wife Kate, and we were married April 2005 in the Salt Lake City Temple. While at BYU I became involved with the a cappella group, Vocal Point, and I sang with the group for one year while pursuing my studies. After a not-so-fun year of applying/preparing for dental school, we were accepted into a program in Kansas City. We have been here since August 2006 and we love the big/little city feel (but we definitely don't love the humidity). In October 2007, our little stud muffin Hayden was born, and of course our lives will never be the same. He has been so much fun to come home to, and I'm convinced that he has already said his first words "Dadda".
We are in our third year of school, and we are already anxious to be closer to home and family. When done with school I hope to go into practice with my Dad in Rigby, but we all know that there are no guarantees in life, so we'll see!
We are extremely happy and extremely busy, and we love to see the familiar faces when we come home to visit. Thank you for your posts/updates, and we hope to see everyone soon.
