Paula's Story

Hello, everyone. If someone had told me 10 years ago that i'd be living in "Happy Valley", I'd have said they were crazy. Funny how life throws curves at you that you really don't have any control of!! It's true, I live in Cedar Hills at the mouth of American Fork Canyon. It is in NORTHERN Utah County. As south as I'll go. It is really beautiful down here and the people are really nice. Me and my family have been here for 8 years. Boy, does time fly!! Since walking out the doors of Weber High, I have pursued many things. I cheered at WSU for a year, went to France to further my french language skills, spent time in Israel with Jenny Jensen and Kristen Jones, ended up at BYU Provo for a semester (I hated that!!), worked for Senator Hatch in his Press Office as a grunt, went to Quebec on a Mormon Mission, (loved that!) got married, decided to get a degree in Interpreting for the Deaf, worked one year as an Interpreter, and since then, my life has been one hell of an adventure!! In 2002, I was involved with the opening ceremonies. I got to ice skate for 10 minutes in the opening segment "Fire and Ice". It was the sort of the "artsy fartsy" segment. I was one of many gray M&Ms on the ice. It truly was a great honor to be part of something really cool and spectacular. My husband is a patent attorney working for a firm in Sandy, called Thorpe, North and Western which means that we had to do 3 years of Law School. We ended up in Conc...Expand for more
ord, New Hampshire. It was one of the greatest times we have had in our married life. I am a mom of 3 boys and we have 2 big, dumb dogs, affectionately named, "Damn Dogs!" Occassionally, I will address them by their given names, Carmel, and Hercules. My boys keep me hopping with all of their activities. William is 12, and is excited for Junior High. He is very intelligent, loves to read, ski, swim, golf and hang out with friends. Nathan is 9, and will start the 4th grade. He is my athlete. He plays goalie for his soccer team, and shortstop for his baseball team. His fav sports are the ones that involve a ball. He is good at just about anything he tries. He skies, swims, and likes tennis. Tommy is 5 and my runt. He started skiing this year and loves it. He is an easy-to-please kid and everyone that meets him can't help but love the kid. He swims and wishes he was a dog. I still love to ski, I sometimes play tennis, and have taken up piano again. I'm pretty much the same as I was in high school...cranky and ornery, with the new label of just plain crazy! I think life is the greatest adventure and I hope that I never grow up!!! I had a blast in HS and it just keeps getting better. Even though my friends have dropped off the face of the earth, I hope we have grown up a bit to be able to forgive past offenses and be able to hold our hand out in friendship. Hope all is well with you and your families. See you at the 30th reunion!!
