Becky's Update




Hi everyone! Here is my update. After graduation, I moved to Provo in June and started college at BYU. My plan was to go there for a year and transfer some place else. I ended up staying there for four years. I graduated from BYU in 1992 with a B.S. degree in Travel and Tourism. I met my husband, Kelly Dastrup from Roosevelt, in 1989 through a friend of his that I was on a dating. We were unimpressed with each other. About a year and a half later, Kelly and I both moved back to the Basin to work for the summer and ran into each other. Kelly asked me out and we had our first date on June 11, 1991. We were engaged by July 24, and married on September 12, 1991. (Yes, it was that fast!)

We moved to Roosevelt in 1992. During that time in Roosevelt, we had our three children (Braden 12, Stacia 10, and Bryson 5). We bought a business "Buchanan Feed" in 1995 and ran it until 2002 when we shut the doors and tore the place down.

After we had Bryson, we moved to Idaho for about six months. Things there didn't go according to our plans, so we moved to Vernal. We have been here for the past four years. We have built two houses here in Vernal and have moved four times since we got here. We have been in our current house for about 14 months, but plan to build again in a couple of years. I have learned a lot about framing houses and doing finish work.

Life is good. I am really excited about reconnecting with everyone and look forward to seeing you all at the 20 year reunion next summer.

Can't wait to catch up on old times. I thought I would dread our twentieth, but I am actually getting exited. You have a great looking family.

Becky,

I don't believe I know how to slow down! Gotta keep goin to stay young. I can't imagine how busy you are with children and I'm sure there is so much pleasure and enjoyment in your life as well.

It's amazing to think back to cheerleading days. . .football, basketball games and wrestling and the long rides on the bus to get to some of them. Then look at where we are today and how far we all have come.

Thanks for writing it's nice to hear from you, stay intouch.

Hi Becky! You have been a busy woman......owning a business and building houses...whew, you go girl! And... you still look marvelous! Your kids are too cute and your daughter looks a lot like you did when you were younger. Remember all of those crazy slumber parties that we used to have at your house? Those were fun times!!
