for mindi
I thought I would re-post this message about Brandi Hill Delgado. I originally sent this to a bunch of Bobcats when it happened in December 2007. Since this blog is a great way to reach most (and hopefully all!) of our class, I thought I'd post it again.
Also, if anyone has any information -- obituaries, stories, pictures -- of Brand'n Neibaur, it would be nice to post those for our classmates to read and remember. Brand'n, Brandi and Jordyn may be gone for now, but they are not forgotten.

From December 2007:
Brandi Hill and her daughter, Jordyn, were killed in a car accident on Thursday.

If you would like to send any thoughts to her family, I will be sending a card this week.
Brandi Marie Delgado, 26, died Dec. 19, 2007, in an automobile accident in Mexicali, Mexico.
She was born Nov. 25, 1981, in Rexburg to Kenneth Ray Hill and Sandra Lynn Dyer. Brandi graduated from Madison High School in 2000. In 2005, she moved to Idaho Falls on and Sept. 30, 2006, she married Jaime Delgado in Idaho Falls.
She enjoyed dancing, cooking, traveling, visiting with friends and spending time with her family. Her children were the joy of her life. She was her mother's best friend and had an infectious smile and great laugh.
She was employed at McDonald's restaurant from ages 16 to 23 and loved her job and customers.

She is preceded in death by grandfather, Don Robert Hill; grandmother, Diane Dyer and grandfather, Loring Dyer.
Brandi had so many friends that loved her. They were always there for her and she for them. Her family knows she and Jordyn are together and very happy. We will all miss Brandi as she brought joy to so many. And just like her daughter, our Heavenly Father needed her more than we did. We love you forever.
Funeral services will be held 11 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 27, 2007 at the Rexburg North Stake Center (314 East Second North).
The family will receive friends Wednesday from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Flamm Funeral Home in Rexburg and Thursday at the stake center from 10 to 10:45 a.m. prior to services.

Reminiscience..
This past holiday weekend I sat around lazily in my air conditioning with my husband and his family. Somehow the subject turned to the awkwardness of our past, particularly high school. Each pulled out the skeletons and told the 'true story' of life in high school growing up varous places. The closing statement from each was similarly "I am glad I don't have to go back." Most disagreeably, I said "I would go back, I loved high school!"
Understanding, I do not believe that everyone had the "High School Musical" experience at good ole MHS, but I believe there is something nostalgic about that school that we can all call up in the times of reminiscience. Most of us could remember where our locker was, what our favorite cafeteria food was, and how many times we sat in the commons soaking up the luxorious sun of the commons. If you can't remember, check out the prolific photo albums you have of all the most important people of your life of the past.
Probably most of our memories will not be about the amazing scientifc discoveries or life changing mathematical formulas we learned, but the quirks and kicks of everyday high school drama. What's your most vivid (hopefully happy) MHS memory?

oh, the places we've been
Hi, all. Terrah Conrad Harper, here.
Over the years I've collected newspaper clippings of missionaries, engagements and new babies from our classmates. I'm sentimental that way, and it's fun to look back. I also thought it would be fun to post pictures of what I've got ... which is a lot!
I know there are many I have missed, so feel free to leave comments about any other pictures, announcements, etc., you'd like posted.
I'll be posting pictures soon!
