Class of '98 Today...
Mystery Couple
Mystery Couple
The female writing this blog is a Viewmont class of '98 graduate. The male writing this blog is a Viewmont class of '98 graduate. We are writing it together. We are using the same computer at the same time because we share the same house. We drive the same car. We have the same daughters. We sit on the same pew. Yes folks, it's true; two of your fellow classmates were wed four years ago. We are blogging to officially let it be known that it is possible, even highly likely, for good things to happen when you re-unite with members of the Viewmont High graduating class of 1998.
Following are some clues as to who we are. The first person to post a comment with our correct identification will win a prize. And—oh—it's a good prize. We will give the prize at the reunion.
His biggest relief since graduation: moving away from Davis County to avoid the awkward moments with Ike Yospe in the cold cereal aisle at Dick's.
Her biggest relief since graduation: that our daughters have turned out well, despite Mr. Jackson's repeated concerns that I sat next to the 'radioactive materials' closet day after day after day . . .
His biggest accomplishment during high school: scaling the front façade of Viewmont High
Her biggest accomplishment: getting Sam Hess banished from Mme. DuBois class
His most frustrating obstacle during high school: coming face to face with Brett Ihler down Stud Hall
Her most frustrating obstacle: the choir dresses always clashed with her hair color
What he misses most: Mr. Norton's stinky experiments
What she misses most: biting the heads off of tiny red Pooka bears
His favorite hobby during h.s.: The Calculus
Her favorite hobby: writing for the Danegeld
What brought her the most angst: trying to look cool during stomps
What brought him the most angst: I didn't have any angst in high school
The most enjoyable thing he's experienced since h.s.: discovering my sweetheart
Her biggest surprise in the past 10 years: marrying the dimpled boy I met in 7th grade
Her dream for the future: being published as a children's book author
His dream for the future: to make it to the 20-year reunion
Current stats: We live in Hillsboro Oregon where Mr. ____ works as an Electrical Engineer and Mrs. _____ teaches children's dance. We have two daughters and an imaginary kitty cat.

Dave Barton
After graduating from Viewmont, I attended Utah State for a year. Then, much to my relief, I went on to serve in the decidedly un-third world Iowa Des Moines Mission. I'll gladly take steak and corn on the cob over chicken foot stew any day of the week. Once I got home, I returned to USU to pursue a degree in Graphic Design and Marketing. My last year of school, I started dating Kristen Andrews, a native of Price, Utah. We were married on May 7, 2004, a week after I became a college grad.
We lived in Logan for another year while Kristen finished school, then we moved down to the Salt Lake area. In May of '07, we bought a townhome in the Daybreak development in South Jordan. Currently I am working as a Graphic Designer for Salt City Candle Company. A one man "creative team," I design all of their catalogs, packaging, and marketing collateral. Also, I pretty much always smell like apples and cinnamon.
And lasty, our first addition, Edward James Barton, was just born on May 3rd. He always keeps things interesting for his first-time parents. He is a spittin' image of his daddy, only he doesn't smell quite as sweet. We are considering making an appearance at the picnic on Saturday because we have never had $10 popsicles before. They must be delicious.
And yes, we too have a blog (davekristen.blogspot.com), where you can find updates on the fam, as well as my random thoughts on movies and pop culture.

Class of '98 Today...
Marissa (Bench) Browning
After Viewmont, I attended Weber State University for two years. After changing my majors a few times, I settled with Political Science with law school on my mind. I served an LDS Mission England (London South). After the mission, I transferred to The University of Utah and received my Bachelor's degree in Political Science in 2004. After working at a law firm for a few years, I realized that law school didn't seem like a great fit anymore. I currently work as a paralegal for the LDS Church working in Intellectual Property focusing on music copyright.
I married Jacob Browning four years ago. We actually met at Viewmont (he graduated in 1997), but didn't date until later (I was the last person that thought I'd marry someone from High School!). Jake currently works as a Mechanical Engineer for Van Boerum and Frank in Salt Lake. We work within a few blocks of each other and get to carpool to work together.
We currently reside in Salt Lake City and keep busy with home improvements/ gardening, running, teaching piano lessons and traveling. No children yet . . . but we are very hopeful! The last ten years have been growing time. It is wonderful to see old faces/names again on this blog and I look forward to the reunion!

Class of '98 Today...
Natalie (Nuzman) Edwards
It’s really hard to just sum up the past 10 years in a few words. But I will give it a try. After graduation I really didn’t want to go to school. I had burnt myself out with early collage and I had a good paying job, so I decided to just work for a while. In 2000 I got married and went back to school part time while working full time at an insurance agency. In 2003 I got divorced and moved to Las Vegas to restart my life. I quickly found another insurance job and some really great friends. I soon met my wonderful husband and we quickly fell in love. We were married in 2004. In 2005 I left my insurance job to have the full time job of being a mother to our daughter Juliana. In 2006 my husband left his job and we moved to the San Francisco bay area so that he could start an internship as a Public Health Microbiologist for Marin County. In 2007 I went back to school to see if I could at least get an Associates degree under my belt and after August 1st I will have accomplished that. And that brings us to 2008. In March my husband was accepted to a PhD program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. So, we will be moving from Marin County to Birmingham Alabama in less than 6 weeks (about a 3500 mile trek across the U.S). It is about a 5 year program so we are in this for the long haul. We are very excited about the move but I think we are both terrified to be leaving the comforts of job front for him to become a full time student.
I really love being a Mom and I am so glad that my husband had been so supportive of me staying home. It is a lot of hard work but it is very worth it. Because of our move in a few weeks I will on be able to attend the reunion this year and I am very sad about that. But, I have been really enjoyed seeing what everyone is up to for the last 10 years. Thank you for putting this reunion together and for putting this blog together I really hope you will keep it up after the reunion is over. And I hope to see all of you in another 10 years.
If you are interested we have a family blog at: http://natalie-livelovelaugh.blogspot.com/
