college roomies
the six of us met each other in college in 1957
Janette, Theresa, Lynne, Elaine, Judy, Lorena
we lived in Brigham Hall dorm in our first year of college
later, some of us moved to a house
which was known as the
Feather House
so we became the
Feather House Girls
some of us met our future spouses
one of us already had met hers
we studied and played together
experienced a bit of mischief together too
we have laughed and cried
wished, hoped, dreamed together
we used to get together each year
to catch up with our lives
we became
wives, mothers, teachers, grannies
and some of us great grannies
(these pictures were taken at Theresa's home in the nineties)
***
we graduated from the
University of Wisconsin at Platteville
one of several state schools in Wisconsin
***
I am proud to be a graduate of UWP
my entire family graduated from there
mom, dad, brother
***
hey there roomies . . .
I am in the mood for a reunion catch up
let's choose a place and make it happen
Love ~ Lynne

Hello, Lynne! Pretty shots of your roomies. A reunion would be fun! Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!
As soon as I saw Brigham Hall........ I thought, "huh! That's a coincidence. Platteville had a Brigham Hall". We are fellow alumnae of UW-P!! Or, as it was called back in the day, Wisconsin State University- Platteville. I was an Elem Ed major when I attended. Wow! That is funny!! That is where I met my husband (of 44 years!!)
Small world!
It's wonderful that you all still keep in touch..Happy Monday
Wow, that is wonderful that you still keep in touch.

FRIENDSHIPS

You gals definitely need to get together!
How fabulous! I had my first roomie meet-up in decades a year or so ago and it couldn't be beat. I'm glad yours was just as delightful -- there is something so powerful about enduring friendship.
What a beautiful circle of friends!!! I hope your reunion comes together. Nothing compares to a gathering of hearts.
Love these photos, thanks for the share.
nothing better than old friends...
loved looking at these photos so much...i need to drag some of my photos out and scan them...
we are getting a tiny shower and before I could finish this sentence, it's stopped...
Looks like a beautiful group of ladies with all sorts of beautiful memories.
Hi Lynner,
Thanks so much for posting these pictures! I don't remember seeing them before. What's with all of us wearing glasses? I think that is tea slush in the pitcher . I always used to have an ice cream bucket of it in the freezer. I'd forgotten about it. Wonder if I still have he recipe.
A get together would be super -- maybe in the fall? xoxoxxo, Tess
It would be great to catch up with old friends.
Wouldn't that be so special to get together again? I hope it happens for you soon!
