I've just decided that 10 years flies by far too fast! But, I am SO looking forward to the reunion next year. Let's see...me. After graduation I went to Ricks for a little over 2 years then took a break to serve a mission. I spent an amazing 18 months in Melbourne Australia (which is my second home), then returned to BUI-Idaho to finish my Associates degree. Once that was accomplished I moved to Boise (which is where my family moved back in '98) to attend ISU-Boise in their Speech Pathology program. I got really sick and had to drop out of school, but then I found the best job ever at Micron Technology. I have been there for 2 1/2 years and just got a promotion on Tuesday!!! Yes, I am very excited about that. A few months ago I enrolled in a school called "LongRidgeWritersGroup" where I work with a nationally published author (Mary Rosenblum). I am currently pursuing my lifelong dream to become a published author. More about that later. I have the CUTEST niece and nephews and believe me, I am the auntie that spoils them to death. I'm sure their parents love it. I'm just lovin' life to the fullest and narrowing down my list of "Things to do before I die." And, yes....life is fun!

Has it really been ten years? I guess time flies when you're having fun! After we graduated I attended Ricks College for a year where I met my hubby Todd. We were married May 28, 1999 (exactly one year after graduation) in the Idaho Falls temple. We moved to Ogden, Utah where I finished my degree in interior design at Weber State University. We bought our first house in Rigby and lived there for four years. My two oldest kids were born there, Elizabeth Grace who is 6, and Caroline Jo who is 3. Todd was offered an opportunity to spend one summer in Puerto Rico for his job, so we enjoyed the surf and the sun in the summer of 2004. When we come back, we moved to Plain City, Utah. We loved it there, but Todd was offered a promotion a year ago, so we packed up again and moved to Federal Way, Washington where we live now. Our son, Louis was born 2 months ago, and I love staying home and playing with my kids all day. We love spending time at the beach, swimming, hanging out with our great friends here, and riding our motorcycle. Life is good, and I look forward to seeing you next summer!

It was great to see all the pictures of everyone from over the past 10years. I am currently living in Maryville Tennessee where I received my BA in Psychology, worked for a few years in social work, decided that was not for me, and now am in school again for occupational therapy. I will graduate in May of 2008! I got married this past December to a wonderful guy named Mark. He works for this huge car part manufacturing plant called Denso. No kids yet, but planning to have one or two after I am out of school. Here's a few pictures, hope y'all enjoy! (yes I have picked up some of the southern accent, I've been here for 9 years now!)

After high school I live in Jackson Hole for the summer, then to Ricks where I graduated with my Associates in General Health and Education. I moved to Utah after that and met my husband Jared we got married October 20, 2001 in Logan, UT. We've lived in Provo, Utah for three years while my husband finished his undergrad at BYU in Public Health, then Hawaii for two years while he got his Masters in Epidemiology at UH. After Graduation Jared received a three-year fellowship with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), that requires us to live in Atlanta, GA for a year and two years anywhere in the US. We picked Anchorage for the adventure and so I can finish my Bachelors in Rec. Management and Outdoor Leadership at UAA. Snow here we come! Kari Inskeep Parrish

Well, here's a little update on what I've been doing since HS. After graduation I went to Ricks for 2 years and got my associates degree. After that, I went to Utah State and graduated with my bachelor's in 2002. That summer I married my husband Jon, (who I met at Ricks) and we lived in Logan for a few months. In the fall of 2003, we moved to Washington state, and he started law school. I worked as a marketing rep for a surgical company in Seattle for 2 years,until I had Ellie in April of '05. I've been a stay at home mom ever since. Jon graduated in '06, and he accepted a position at a law firm in Logan, UT, so we have been living here for about a year. We really like living in Logan, it is in between both of our families, and it's small, but not too small!! Ellie is two and she is so much fun. She is a little chatterbox, and keeps me laughing most of the time. She loves animals and playing "mom" with her babies. I am due any day with our second baby (a boy) so we are really excited for him to get here and join our family.

Amy Sterzer Hancock


WOW! What have I been doing for the last ten years? I graduated from BYU-I with a bachelors in Nursing. I married Aaron Hancock from Menan, and we now have two little boys, Carson and Tanner. Of course every mom would say this, but they are the most beautiful boys in the world!! We built a house in Shelley, then moved in 2005 to Corvalis, Oregon. We lived there for about 2 years, then moved to Clinton, Ut. Aaron is a wires operation manager for Rocky Mountain Power, and I work part-time as an Emergency Room Nurse. It's an insane job, but I love it. I only work 3-4 times a month, so it's perfect with my little ones. I still get to be home with them, and I wouldn't miss that for the world. Life is great! I'm excited to see everyone next summer!

Angie Bramwell Wycherly




Ah, the last ten years of my life.
After HS graduation, I went to Ricks College for 2 years and then BYU Provo. I spent a semester there and then decided to go on a mission. I served in Zagreb, Croatia for a year and a half. It was lots a great fun there and is a wonderful vacation spot-you should totally check it out.
After I got back, Shana Brown and I went to a New Year’s dance, and I ran into an old BYU friend Andy. We were married a year later. I went back to BYU and graduated in Nursing and Andy graduated in Accounting. I worked at Primary Children’s hospital in SLC, and then we moved to San Jose, CA. I spent a year working at Stanford Children’s Hospital. I absolutely love being a pediatric nurse. Just last year we moved to Boise and had a little girl, Maren. I’m staying at home now with Maren and spend my time camping, shopping, hanging out with my sister Megan, road trippin', snowboarding, and trying to find all of your e-mail addresses! (send them to rigbyreunion98@gmail.com)
I’m excited to see how you are all doing!

Hilerie Scott


Hey everyone! I hope everyone is doing well and I can't wait to see you at the reunion. I have created a blog at http://hileries.blogspot.com/ to update everyone on what I'm up to. I recently graduated from the University of Idaho with a master's in Recreation (emphasis: Sport and Recreation Management). Before that, I received my bachelor's in Journalism and Mass Communication from the UI in 2005. Right now I am searching for a public relations/marketing job in sports or higher education. I'm pretty much a professional job searcher now;) My life has been a little crazy since I graduated. I went to UI after high school for a year. I then moved to Las Vegas for two years. It was cool living there, but things with my boyfriend didn't work out and I ran into some health problems. I moved back to Rigby with my parents and recovered. In January of 2002, I moved back up to Moscow to continue my education. I met my boyfriend Shon a year and eight months ago. We are still going strong. I am moving up to Kellogg where he is now, so I can focus on my job search. We have two miniature dachshunds named Chipper and Rocket. They are both a year old now. If you want to read more about what I'm up to, check out my blog!

Jennifer Bellows Sessions



After graduation from High School I went to Ricks/BYU-Idaho. Graduated in Business management. There I met my husband, Shaun. We were married August 18, 2001 in Idaho Falls Temple. Currently we have two children. Taylor Ann will be 5 on November 2nd, and our son Trevor will be 2 on October 30th.
In April of this year we moved back to Rigby from Rexburg. Shaun is an employee at BYU-Idaho; he’s been there for just over 5 years. As for me, I am a very busy stay at home mom. I can’t believe we are old enough to be celebrating our 10 year reunion. I still remember lining up on the back fields of the High School getting ready to graduate. Time may march, but it also stands still.

Jana Brown Ferrel




Hey everyone! I'm excited to see our blog. Here is a little synopsis of what's happened in my life in the last 10 years.
After I graduated from High School, I went to BYU Utah where I met my husband my junior year, 2001. We both graduated in 2002. I got a bachelor degree in Neuroscience and he got a bachelor degree in Accounting. In 2002, we moved to Washington DC for my husbands job with an accounting firm. I had a little girl, Alyvia, in 2003 and a little boy, Berkeley, in 2005. They're 19 months apart. I've enjoyed being a stay at home mom and am continuing my "parent" education. I've enjoyed traveling up and down the east coast and have ventured outside the US once to Ecuador which was really cool. Since I've been away from Rigby, I haven't had the chance to see a lot of you. I'm glad we have this blog and I hope you will follow my lead.
Take Care,
Jana

Class of 1998 reunion

We are planning and organizing our 10 year reunion. We are narrowing down a date and getting the details polished. Our first feat will be to find everyone. It would be a huge help if you could email the names and emails of all the Rigby High School 1998 graduates that you know to rigbyreunion98@gmail.com. We would love to have everyone come, but realize that some will be unable to attend. This is why we have created a blog. You can email us pictures and an update about where you've been and what you've been doing for the last 10 years and we will post it on the blog for everyone to see. Please remember to leave out any addresses and phone numbers as this is a public blog. We can also add links to your own blog if you happen to have one. Have fun getting reacquainted with everyone!
