Hello Everybody,

So many exciting Lives everyone has led!!!!! Mine maybe not so exciting but here it goes.

After High School I went to the University of Maine for two years and got an asscociates in Animal Medical Technology. Lived at home the summer of "89". That Fall I met my future husband Paul, don' t laugh , at a dance club in Boston with Donica. This is picture of the festivities. There are some familiar faces.

We just celebrated our 15 year anniversary. Paul and I lived in Waltham for several years then rented a house in Maynard then eventually bought a house in 1998.

This is my wonderful husband/pervert Paul ---------->

So Paul is feeling left out of this so a little about him. He's a great husband and father most of the time. (He's flipping me the bird). He's been a Waltham Police officer for I think almost 15 years now. We tolerate each other!!!! *Kris has no idea what a blog is. I just thought this was about her past, sooooooo I think I should get at least an honorable mention. Anyone? Anyone? Class? - Paul*

My first REAL job was at Littleton Animal Hospital . I worked there for 10 years as a Veterinary Technician and eventually Hospital Manager . Then came the Children!!!

Austin was born in 1995. He just started 7th grade this year. He loves listening to music, video games and playing football . I know it's not soccer but what's a mom to do.

However I never realized how mental football fathers are! Also I suggest to any of you with daughters to lock them up now because the hormones have kicked in and he is on the prowl - *Austin not me - Paul*

Austin gets good grades and is a great kid for which I take ALL of the credit. I'm very lucky.

Mason was born Oct. 99. He just started 2nd grade. His nickname is "rainmain" because he can repeat the same phrase over and over and it's usually, Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom!!!!!

WWWHHHAAATTT!!!!! He is my Soccer and basketball player and soon to be football. I am a women drowning in testosterone!!!!!!! If you hadn't noticed Austin is his Fathers "mini me" and Mason is mine.

So I stopped working for about 5 years in protest of the crazy daycare prices and was a stay at home MOM. Those were the "Martha Stewart" years as my husband calls them. The house was clean. The laundry was done. I made the kids Birthday cakes. Taught Sunday School. YES Sunday school and no the building didn't get struck by lightning!

I started back to work about 4 years ago part time at Apple Country Animal Hospital in Stow the place was a nightmare but the hours were good. Two years ago I left and started working at Integrative Animal Health Center in Bolton full time well more then full time there were only 3 employees but I LOVE IT!! It's an animal hospital that integrates eastern and western medical philosiphies. We do Acupuncture, Chiropractic, massage, and Reiki as well as all your regular old Vet. stuff. I'm a Vet Tech and Manage the front office.

I don't collect wine but I am very very good at drinking it. I believe the only collections we've ever had at this house were about 500 Pokeman cards and some rocks.

I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone!!! I had to through this last picture in of the gang!

See ya in October!!!
