Let's Break This Down

I don't know if anyone will care to read this, but I had a lot of fun going through the calendar to revisit what we've done through the year. It was actually funny to do this because some of the things we did, I almost didn't remember that it was this year!

January: Justin decided to take the plunge and get Lasik. It was pretty funny to watch him on Vallium and wearing "bug shields."

February: Ski trip to Monarch, CO with the Eudeys, the Strouds and Kevin. Such a fun trip and it was over my birthday!! This month marked 26 years for me.



March: Trip to LAS VEGAS!! We went with friends Tim & Krystal. While we were there we also got to visit the Hoover Dam. Las Vegas has become one of our new favorite vacation spots.



April: Officially found out our lives were going to change completely! So excited to find out we were finally pregnant after trying for 16 months. Such a blessing and the start of a new journey.



May: Trip to Chicago, IL for Justin's cousin's wedding. Beautiful bride, beautiful wedding.



June: This was a busy month! Justin turned 28, we had two weddings of good friends, I went to Frisco, TX with my cousins, aunt, mom & sister, and we finished up the month with our annual garage sale!



July: Spent most of the month relaxing from previous month, with a quick trip up to Kansas City to attend the wedding of Justin's high school buddy Drew.


August: We went on our annual Cornell family vacation to the beach! Such a fun, relaxing week. We got to spend some time with our friend Sandy Collins on the way down and then spent the rest of our time soaking up the sun!


September: We went on a weekend trip to Scottsdale, AZ with good friends - Hutchisons and Lovetts. Got to see lots of sights and spend quality time with friends. Loved it!



October: Spent time preparing for our upcoming baby by attending our first childbirth class and we also attended my cousin Andrew's wedding.
November: Almost there - lots of time getting the rest of our "to do" list done before the baby. Had a wonderful shower hosted by awesome friends from church. We also wrapped up Financial Peace University that Justin coordinated for the first time.
December: On the 1st we welcomed Haylie Brooke! It was a wonderful and much anticipated day. This was a month of firsts, but mostly as a new family of three.
Happy New Year! Have a wonderful 2010.
