2009 via Nutshell

I saw a lot of blogs reminiscing about 2009, so shall I.

January - J and I had already been engaged 6 months! I hadn't done anything really wedding related because I didn't want to plan, I was lazy.  Thus, my wedding vendor shopping started.  Two of our really close friends had finally gotten engaged after 5 years of dating.  I started working more than 15 hrs a week. Blah!

February - My birthday month AND Valentine's Day! We usually do a 2-in-1 sort of thing since V-day and my birthday are 10 days apart.  Last year we went to the Bahamas, this year we went to Orlando to go to Animal Kingdom! It was awesome, we had a blast.  I also found my wedding dress this month! Yay.

March - We ended up at 3 or 4 different St. Pattys day parties and one parade.  We booked our florist, and cake lady.  This was a boring month I guess...

April - J's best friend got married, we had a great time at the wedding!  My niece was out of my sisters womb just as long as she was in.. she turned 9 months!  We did a lot of misc wedding related things and we moved into our apartment since buying a house was not happening!

May - One of my besties birthday was in the beginning of the month, we went to Taverna OPA in City Place and had a awesome time!  Our close friends who were engaged on New Years Eve finally tied the knot after their short engagement. It was beautiful to witness a love so strong and patient finally be sealed!

June - One of my other besties birthday! We got drunk and did our thing like usual.  We booked the rest of our vendors this month also. 

July - My Stink Bug turned 1 so we had a pool party at my pops house! :) We also had a kick ass 4th of July party complete with an awesome slip n' slide!!! Somehow we ended up in the Keys at the end of the month.  Nothing like a spur of the moment trip!

August - Very busy month! A few Marlins games, we scheduled to take our e-pics on a Friday, my bridal shower was Saturday and that Sunday we left for Vegas (for J's 26th birthday)!  Wellllllll, our photog Rebekah's hubby was rushed to the hospital that Friday afternoon, so we reschedule to October.  My shower was at Maggianos, it was great! Vegas of course, was awesome - we went with two of our best friends and my FIL! Good times.

September - Ah, yes.  The start of the Canes season.  My life now consists of Hurricanes football and beer from now until December.

October - Took our E-pics! Yay!  We finalized all the vendors, and all the little details for the wedding.  Then of course towards the end of the month we painted a pumpkin with Gabby, and did the whole Halloween thing! :)

November - Wedding month!  It was a crazy quick month, it was done before I could take it all in.  I didn't work at all in the weeks leading up to it.  Then it was there! Just like that.  Then we left for Park City the Monday after! THEN, Thanksgiving! Whew! Busy busy, but I loved every minute of it and think about it everyday.

December - Our first Christmas as Mr. & Mrs.  it was so surreal. I couldn't believe that we were where we had talked about for over a year!


I'm truely blessed.  I can only hope that this coming year will be 10x better. 
Happy 2010 everyone, be safe.
