Ash Grove Elementary

I attended kindergarten at Ash Grove Elementary in Denver. My mom was wonderful enough to write all of my classmate’s names on the back of my class photo.

Row 1: Mr. Seeber, Mrs. Coffey, Sara Wilkins, Scott Hays, Katie Kennedy, Andrew Samaras, Lauel Gregory, Michael Wolfson

Row 2: Laurie Hansen, Cara Olin, Richard Mohr, Jody Ambrose

Row 3: Katie Flanigan, Adam Welter, Danielle Pokonney, Patrick Bailey, Jill Fogel, Brian Geraghty, Christa Michele Doty, Steve Higgins

Row 4: Me, Meghan Jones, Lisa Burkhart, Gabriel Gehia, Charne Schmidt, Jenny Olson, Seth Matus, Millyon Pak

Row 5: Lisa Berg, Nicole Campbell, Marcella Epper, Joy Wagner, Dana Swartz

Seth Matus lived directly across the street from me and was  my very first best friend.

I’m pretty sure that plaid shirt was blue...

...and my jumper was red with red yarn ribbons at the end of each braid.

We were all pretty stinking cute.

Sara Wilkins, from row 1, was my partner in crime. No, really. I committed my first crime with Sara. We shiplifted stickers with our initials from some hardware store. Mine are still stuck to my toy chest.
