I Currently work as a Project Coordinator for a Commercial Contractor in Salt lake City. Life is good!

My wife Candace and I are currently living in Salt Lake City, Utah after we both graduated from Utah State University. I graduated in Theatre Education and my wife graduated in Watershed and Earth Systems (Natural Resources). I am currently teaching Drama at Skyline High School in Salt Lake and pursuing my Master's Degree from Central Washington University. My wife is currently the Aquatic Nuisance Species Biologist for the Northern Utah Region of the Department of Wildlife resources. We have a daughter, Shiloh, who will be 2 in February and we are having so much fun watching her learn and grow. There is not a day that goes by that we do not hear a new word or phrase come out of her. You can follow my blog at http://nickhutch.blogspot.com/

Friday evening we will be having a dinner for the adults. Saturday we will have some sort of an event/lunch for the entire family. We are still working on the details so if you have any suggestions, now is the time to let us know.

Ryan Capson

After living in Washington D.C. for two years, I returned to Idaho to attend Idaho State University. I married my high school sweetheart, Emily, in 2002. Surprisingly, I am a nurse and have also been in the Air National Guard since high school graduation. I am currently working in Pocatello at a behavioral health rehabilitation home. We have two boys, Elliot and Gabriel. I have traveled a lot in the guard, most recently to Arizona/Mexico border to continue construction on a vehicle barricade. In November, I will attend military schooling for 6 months to train for yet another job. Following that, I hope to continue my nursing education at ISU. We plan to live in Pocatello for a while, but would like to move out of the city. I really enjoy home improvement projects, but only the ones that I pick. In the last couple of weeks, I have painted the exterior and replaced our roof (stupid Idaho wind!), and remodeled the kitchen, sort of. Emily is still waiting for me to complete that project.

Michael Blauer

Since High School I have developed a love of Spanish and I have been fortunate to live, study, and work in various Spanish speaking countries. I attended Idaho State University where I received degrees in both Business Management and Spanish. While at I.S.U. I worked as an interpreter for the court system and for the local hospital. I also met my incredible wife, Amy, who is from Caldwell, ID; we were married in 2005. Currently I am finishing a master's degree in healthcare administration at the University of Michigan and I recently accepted a position at a health system in Fort Collins, CO. We've loved living in Michigan but we're also excited to return to the West.

Kasey Adams

I went to Utah State for a semester before taking a break for a year. I ended up transferring to Idaho State University where I received a BA in Secondary Education--English in December 2004. I met my husband, Clint Heward, in 2002, and we were married in May 2003. We live in "downtown" Declo, Idaho where I teach ninth and eleventh grade English and coach JV volleyball. I love my job--I love working with the kids and being so involved in what they do--sports, drama, dances--it is a worthwhile job. I hear I'm a bit of a drill sergeant, but what do they expect when I look like a student myself? This is my third year teaching, but only my second year at Declo. My first teaching job was for sixth grade language arts and math. Yikes--I was terrified. During the summers I work for the BLM fighting wildland fires. This will be my sixth and hopefully last summer doing this job. Of course, I've said that every summer for the past five years. This job does help me stay in shape--I run everyday rain, shine, or holidays. No kids just yet, but we are proud parents of three dogs and a cat. Reading other classmates' blogs I think, "man, I didn't get very far away from Burley." but it is nice living close to both our families--and let's face it--I do enjoy this area. I stay busy with school, and my summers are shot with the fire season, but when I can I do spend time in mountains with family and having get togethers with our friends. Where did the years go? Can't believe it's been nearly ten years.

Richie Call

I am currently living in New Jersey where I'm in the second year of the graduate acting program at Rutgers University. I met my beautiful wife, Chrislynn, at Utah State University. We met doing a play for the Old Lyric Repertory Company (we played husband and wife). Chrislynn is an actress, a scenic designer and artist, and a mother. We have two babies! Richard Buleigh Call III (little Richie) and Sophia Christina Call (Sophie). I came right to grad school after Utah State so I've been a student since high school. I've worked as an actor during my summers, and that's what I plan to do when I'm done here. You can visit our family blog at www.callfamilyproductions.blogspot.com, and I have a sepearate blog, www.polarbearproductions.blogspot.com, to keep people posted on shows I'm in and stuff. I can't believe it's almost been 9 years since we graduated!

Shawna Welch

I enrolled at CSI where I graduated in 2002 RN degree. I started working at Minidoka Memorial Hospital in Rupert. While in my last semester of school, I was setup on a blind date and then married Jared Bingham. After shortly being married we bought a house in Rupert where we are still currently living. Jared works for Minidoka Irrigation District where he is the assistant water master. In 2007 we became parents to Abigail Rose. We are just enjoying our little family. I love the married life and also being a mom.

Carolina Gonzalez

finished a B.A. Music from BSU Spring 2004. I will finish a Master's of Music Ed from The University of New Mexico in Fall of 2009.

I am a professional Mariachi violinist, and singer. I am currently performing with Mariachi Nuevo Mexico in Albuquerque. We have a few cds, which are very good. I am working on a solo album project that will most likely be released this summer.

I have a NM teaching license for k through 12th grade music. I'm having too much fun being a professional Mariachi, so I don't have a full-time teaching position. I am a half-time Mariachi violin teacher at a dual language title 1 elementary. I am also a clinician for area orchestra festivals. My master's thesis is based on topics in Mariachi Education.

I currently live in Albuquerque's South Valley, aka "little Juarez" with my dog Cuba and I love it. I miss Idaho every day!!! You can't get any decent potatoes down here in the desert.

I have lived in Boise for about 3 months. We moved here for my husbands job. I got married in Sept. 01 to Travers Berg (from Rupert). We have 2 kids. Madisyn will be 6 in March and Logan just turned 3. I love the married life and spending time with my family. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Sara Bowen

I attended Ricks College where I graduated with my associates in Office Systems Management. Then I later moved to Provo to work and I did Accounts Payable for a Drywall company for 4 1/2 years. I met my husband, Simon Östhed, in Provo and we were married in May 2003. We currently live in West Jordan, Utah and Simon works for the Jordan School District in the Special Education department as a teacher specialist. I am a stay at home mom and love every minute of it.
