Out with the old and in with the New

2010 came and went with a bang, and now on the eve before the last day of the year, I was reflecting on how much that has happened in my life in the last year.

Tucker is another year older, still quite the puppy-enjoying his doggy life (loving this huge bone he got for Christmas from Auntie Nikki).

The fall was accompanied by going to an awesome play with my parents and Adam.

I was blessed to have found such an amazing man that can actully keep up with me and all my crazy quirks...funny thing is we're more alike in that way than anyone I know. <3

Started a new job at Starkey laboratories and met some amazing new friends.

The four of us got to hang out quite a bit, and I'm so thankful to have them in my life and for all of us to be friends...can't wait for 2011 and the crazy adventures we can come up with!

Was asked to become a godmother to a precious little baby girl. She will be here soon and I can not wait to see that tiny baby and help and guide her through a blessed life.

Hung out with friends...laughing, talking, sharing secrets, just having fun.

Watching some amazing people say "I do"

Traveled many places...to New York City. Total Tourists, but loved it.

Valley fair!!!-got to be a kid again..if only for a day.

Quite my job at Mintahoe, left behind some great people and friends (I still keep in touch though), but it was time to move on.

Spent some time on the boat with great friends...teaching some how to ski, and teaching some kids how to love tubing (and adults).

My favoite thing to do in the Summer...hands down. Lucky to be able to do it.

Went to another wedding with all of my best friends...was a blast to see another one get married...who's next ladies and gentlemen?!?!?

Went on the humaine society walk for animals.

Took a girls trip to Seattle with Abbey, awesome city, great time.

As 2010 comes to an end I can't wait to see what 2011 will bring...even though there are always ups and downs of the year, I'm blessed to have such an amazing life and thank god every day for the chance to share it with such amazing people!

I wish you all a happy, healthy and safe new year!!!!

Holy Snow!

20 inches of snow later, it's finally seemed to stopped! I don't think I can remember ever seeing this much snow at one time. Adam and I were supposed to have a game night tonight over at his place with another couple, but when I attempted to leave my garage (with Tuck in tow in the back seat), I couldn't even get out. Opened the garage door and got about 4 feet out and then got stuck. Luckily I could jimmy rig it a bit and reverse and make it back into the garage. So I went back inside and called Adam and told him I wasn't going anywhere. So with his Jeep and 4 wheel drive he's attempting to head over to my place. Since I only have a few weeks before I leave for Vegas for a month, this was one of the weekends we weren't both busy and we could hang out. :( Hopefullyl he makes it (safely), and I think we'll just be watching some Christmas movies and drinking some wine by the fireplace! Quick change of plans. If I've learned anything from this storm it's that a) I need to invest in a shovel, and b) Ugg boots are really just for style...no practicality in mounds and mounds of snow....may need to get another "snow" pair of boots!

On a side note, tuck loves it, he just bounds through it...even though he sinks up to his head when he's out there. haha it's kind of hilarious to watch! Happy Shoveling
