Prices can go up or down but once you book, they can NOT go up, but if they do go down then you get the lower price.

The wonderful class of 79 had a birthday/Christmas get together on Saturday, December 3. We meet at Rolling River Estates in W.N. 19 classmates on hand for hours of great stories, laughing till every muscle was aching...and tears flowing. We celebrated with Sherrie Nail Burns as she will be retiring after 34 yrs of working with the SBA in Jan 2012. Congrats to Sherrie on becoming a full time grandmother! Sherrie also had the oldest grandchild of those who were in attendance. Out little group also had 7 grandparents...some one told us we were old..since they didn't have grandchildren yet...and there was a reply of NO, the 7 grandparents just started having sex earlier! it was a good laugh :)
We all are looking forward to our next get together really soon..what a great group of life long friends we are!!
