Jared Buhanan-Decker

After HS graduation I went on a mission to San Fernando, California. Then shortly after returning home I met the girl of my dreams at a fellow 01'er's house, Aaron Stapley, while playing a rousing game of Settlers of Catan. Sharry and I dated for a couple of years, then were engaged and married the winter of 2006. We had a pretty awesome honeymoon where we backpacked through Europe for six weeks the cheapest anyone has ever done it. We did it camping, eating bread and cheese from little grocery bags we carried around, sleeping at rail stations (we pretty much were foreign bums) and when we were feeling ritzy in hostels. I graduated from Dixie with my Associate and then transferred clear up to SUU. While there I got my BS in Social Sciences Secondary Education. We then decided since we both graduated we might as well go teach English abroad. So we moved to South Korea where we were each responsible for an entire elementary school. I grew to love kimchi and Korean BBQ and to appreciate a very different culture. I am currently in Grad School through the UofU working to be a school counselor and should finish Spring 2012. No kids but we did put some roots down and got a cute little kitty last fall. Oh and I think I've put on like 30-40 lbs, married life and a love for eating will do that to you. (o:

HS memories: fun dances and the crazy nerves that came with those, what happens when you can't dance and are with whatever girl you had a crush on at the time. Cross country was good times not so much for the running (not good times, bad times) but for all the fun folks on it, math class with Mr. Christensen all three freaking years and watching him play Star Craft or whatever it was during class, the fabulous Mr Page, gummi worming, making cat cutouts and freaking out cars, sophomore girls, senior trip to San Diego and Tijuana, loads of fun concerts, journalism, and all you good people. High School was fun, horrible, crappy, amazing, happy, depressing, full of friends, lonely and so much more.

Alyssa (Cunningham) Shrout

After graduating, I immediately trained for and ran my first St. George marathon. I went to Dixie for 2 years where I got my Associates Degree. I also served on the Institute Council where I met my husband, Will Shrout (Dan Shrout's older brother). We got married in July 2003, and transferred up to BYU that fall. I got my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education, where I taught for a year as an intern teaching 2nd grade. I did a couple of long-term substitute jobs for a few months. I stay home now with my sweet, yet rambunctious two little boys! Ian is 4 1/2 and Calvin is 2 1/2. We are expecting our third boy in March 2011. I love spending my free time writing YA fantasy and reading anything I can get my hands on! 
 
Memories: Writing ongoing comic book with Georgia in Mr. Talbot's AP History class; CRAZY group dates with Georgia M., Chrissy C., Kori B., Kiarah C., Crystal F., Holly W., Cindy K., Heidi H., Nate W., Dustin H., Jared D., Jon S., Spencer E., Cameron M., etc; fun cross-country trips; going to Charlie's, Mr. Page's class (the video with the earthquake drill and him putting the stool on his head), band trips, pep band, Mr. Holt, choir trips, being late to first period Journalism daily, eating lunch in Seminary building hallway, Honor Society meetings with Alison K., Bro. Ford's scripture mastery cards, watching movies in Spanish (that I can never watch again in English) in Sr. Geiger's class, having my locker next to cool Crystal F., sitting next to Chris C. in Mr. Cottle's math class trying to figure out proofs, Wet 'n Wild Sr. Sluff trips, studying like crazy for AP tests/ACT test, DMB concerts with Nate W., Dustin H., Spencer E., and Jon S., girls' nights sleepovers and drive-bys, crashing the boys' campout at 3 a.m. Whew. That just exhausted my pregnant brain...

Wow, 10 years... part of me is shocked that I've already been graduated for 10 years and the other part barely seems to remember High School and all the fun (drama) that came with it!  After High School I attempted a little college at DSC and then thought I would attempt to experience life outside St. George in Logan, but it also was short lived.  I was back in St. George by 20 and haven't left since!  I truly love Southern Utah and am so grateful that I have been able to start my own family here.  I worked for about 5 years between Southern Utah Title and First American Title as an Escrow Officer (the person that signs the papers with you when you buy a house or refinance your house).  During that time I met my husband, Scott and we were married in January 2006.  Believe it or not we actually met at our LDS singles ward!  Scott is from Grantsville, UT (West of SLC in Tooele County) and he is a Graphic and Web Designer.  We have our own design business Dana Six, but he mainly contracts with H&S Performance (Bentley Hugie's company).  I loved working and learning, but jumped at the opportunity to be home once we decided to start our own family.  We had our first son, Nathan, in July 2008 and our lives were forever changed.  Nathan is a little mini-Scott, but we are discovering he has his mother's attitude and patience (or lack of) very quickly!  Jeffrey Von joined our family in May 2010.  We thought we were going to get a little passive guy, but his little personality is quickly making us think otherwise.  He is opinionated and wants what he wants!  Between making sure they are fed, doing housework, and wiping bums we are laughing, crying, and fit throwing (them and us), but we are one dang happy little family!  We are also lucky enough for our boys to have 17 of their 22 cousins all here in Southern Utah. As a family we love to ride dirt bikes and 4 wheelers, go camping, go on trips, play at the park, have popcorn movie nights, and hang out with all our friends and family!

What do I remember from HS?  My head goes directly to all the teams I played on, mainly Soccer and Basketball!  Those were some good times!  Eating Charlie's sandwiches, Pasta Factory the night before a game, bus trips, N Sync, Damn Gina's, Page bball tournament, swimming after soccer tryouts, really the list could go on forever!  I also remember good times with Gordo (Jessica Gordon) and let's not forget all the fun HS boyfriend memories!  haha :)  Oh and restitution.  Sadly, I spent way to much time there!  I hope everyone is healthy and happy and can't wait to catch up with everyone at the reunion!

Janese (Bateman) Botelho

After graduation I went to Dixie and got my Associates in 3 semesters.  I then served a mission in Santiago, Chile.  After my mission I went up to Logan to attend USU's elementary ed program.  There I met my husband Carlos.  He was visiting from Brazil for General Conference and was in Logan staying with some friends who happened to live next door to me.  We started a VERY LONG distance relationship and were married about a year and a half later in May of 2007.  Since that time my husband has corrupted my Spanish and turned it into Portuguese.  I transferred down to BYU and changed my major to Linguistics and graduated in August of 2008 with a very large pregnant belly.  In October of 2008 we had a little boy, and we had our beautiful little girl 3 weeks ago in February of 2011.  My husband just got a job in Boise so we've moved up to Idaho and are still adjusting and making new friends.

 Some of my favorite memories from High School are eating lunch on the floor of the Seminary Building with Brother Day and my friends.  Hanging with Alyssa Cunningham, Caralee Banks, Kim Dickman and Marie Jones.  Doing service projects with the RASKALS and Honor Society and spending time at football games.

Chrissy (Campbell) Lee & Tamron Lee

THEN

NOW

After graduation, Tamron went on a mission to the Czech Republic and Slovakia. I stayed in St. George and went to Dixie and worked at Pine View High and Sunset Elementary in the Special Education Departments. Tamron returned home April 2004 and we were married July 31. Our first year of marriage was filled with school, work, and some traveling through Europe.

We had our first baby, Phoebe in March 2006 then moved to Shanghai, China in November that same year.  Tamron ran an exporting company for the 9 months we were there. We moved back to St. George after China and Tamron finished his Bachelor degree at Dixie. We had our second baby, Nate, July 2008. We moved to Cedar in the summer of 2009 so Tamron could finish up school at SUU. He graduated with an MBA in May 2010. After graduation, Tamron was offered a job at Dixie College as the coordinator of the testing center so we moved back to St. George. We just had our third baby, Suzy, December 2010.

Some of my favorite memories from high school would have to be cross country trips, eating at Burger Place (so sad that it’s gone), dances, drive-by’s, dating Tamron, choir trips, having funny friends, inside jokes with Kori Boren, writing notes back and forth in Psychology on Melenie Lloyd’s book cover, going to Bishops for breakfast, working at Charlie’s with Crystal and Abby, swimming at the canals, and night hikes.

Chris Jones

I served a mission to the islands of Micronesia. Served on the Island of Guam and Yap (google it). It was awesome serving in such a remote and awesome place. I went to Dixie State College and was on Student Government there for 2 years, President of the Rebel Crew, served on the Institute Council and received the Dixie spirit award. While at Dixie I did high end cabinetry/woodwork and worked part-time as a Limo Driver, "It's ok I am a limo driver!" was my favorite thing to say every time I drove. I also started a DJ company with my younger Brother and we have been doing dances, weddings and parties ever since. I also have my own side company doing high end custom woodwork and furniture. I met my wife Jenalyn at a singles ward in St. George and we have been married for 5 years. We have a super fun 3 year old girl named Aniston who just turned 3 last August. After DSC we moved up to Salt Lake City so I could continue my schooling at the University of Utah. I am studying Exercise and Sports Science and also getting a minor in Nutrition. I am applying for grad school at the U of U in Sports Psychology and then I will go on to get a doctorate of Physical Therapy. I hope to work with college and elite athletes by helping them physically and mentally prepare for their competitions. While in SLC I started working for Backcountry.com, an online outdoor retailer. I have been working there for a little over two years and work with the four online bike sites. I am the merchandise programmer for Chainlove.com and Bonktown.com. I also do the social network/marketing for the four sites as well. I really enjoy anything to do with bikes and I have been racing road, mountain and cyclocross for the last 2 years. I have also been competing in triathlons and running events.

Memories:
Some of the best times I can remember about high school was just hanging out with friends in the halls, messing around during track practice and hanging out on the weekends. We had an awesome class and I am glad I am still in touch with a lot of you.
