Where Are They Now? — Jill Anderson

The day after graduation I moved to Salt Lake to start life's new adventure! Not sure what was going to happen or what was out there for me, but ready for the ride.

I went to LDS Business College and got a Medical Assisting Degree. Met and married Steve Yeates, and ended up in West Point in Davis County. I have 2 girls and 2 boys. Mickelle, Trent, Austin, and Kjerstie. I worked in the medical field for about 7 years then stayed home to be mom. Now I am working part time at West Point Jr High teaching study skills.

I'm thinking now, just maybe, I'd like to be a teacher and am considering going back to school. Am I crazy at almost 40?! My kids think it would be great :) After 19 years of marriage I am now divorced.

My life consists of track, Scouts, dance, soccer, youth council meetings, homework, PTA, church, work, and mostly taxi driver. But I wouldn't trade it all for anything, it's made me who I am.

I've loved traveling the last few years, going to: Germany, Haiti, Jamaica, the Virgin Islands, the Bahamas, and Mexico. I wish I had time to go a lot more! But when I do have a spare moment I love to scrapbook all my kids exciting adventures.

It's so nice to read what Jill has been up to. It's sad how quickly you lose track of your friends.

Jill- Whats up Chica? Thank you for remembering senior prom and not denying that you actually went out with me. I love the family photo - what an awesome family. Your oldest daughter looks just like you. Glad to hear things are so good. Look forward to seeing you. Jayson

Jill,
It looks like you and your husband have been up playing "kick-the-can" a few times.

Jill,

It was great to hear from you. You hair is so long. I remember you with only short hair- that's how it was all the time we were dating. Sounds like you have a wonderful life and a great family. I have such wonderful memories of our friendship and will always be grateful for the fun times we had. It ends up that we will be making it to the picnic on Saturday, hope to see you and meet your family.

Jill, I would love to see those pictures. I'd forgotten about the trip to Colorado. What fun! I won't be at the reunion, but would love to keep in touch with you. My email is OSULady36@aol.com. AFter all, we did share the same boy for awhile. Haha.

Hey Jillie! I know you know how much I love our friendship. You are such a HUGE part of my growing up memories, from sleepovers almost every weekend to sharing our locker, to you stealing my boyfriend (oops, did I say that last part out loud =D). I know that my family still remembers you fondly. It's been so great to find our friendship again. I hope to continue that, even from wherever in the world I am. See you soon!!

Jill I would love nothing more than to keep in touch. Maybe when I CAN make it to Utah we could get together! I so missed being there with y'all. I kept saying to Taelor "well, the dinner has started" or "well, it's over" and yesterday i told her we could be at the picnic with some great people right now. You all were definitely in my thoughts.

You look so great, and look at your cute family! I haven't seen you for so long. I have so many fond memories of you, and sleepovers, and birthday parties, where did all the time go?? Great to hear from you!
