As we start 2009, its hard not to look back on the previous year and reflect on the goods and bads of that year. I can't say that there were really any bads this year ... Nick and I are truly blessed and each year it just gets better. Its so funny to think back to when we first met ... we were so broke, we could barely afford dollar beer night. I just started my first job after graduating from college and was adjusting to a very new way of life ... responsibility. I can't say that I wasn't responsible before ... but it was a different type of responsibility. This was my first REAL job, where people actually depended on me. I had new bills to pay as the grace period of my MANY school loans started to expire and it was time to pay up. WHEW ... I am still paying on them today ... one more year to go ... WOO HOO!!!! I had a very different way of life in college ... never really committed to anything other than my friends, sorority and school itself. So the whole growing up thing was in full swing.
Then I was sent to Atlanta (was supposed to be in Australia for the Olympics) but I was low man at work and was booted off the trip ... so I was sent to Atlanta to a training class to give me something to do. Thats were I met Nick ... hmmm ...
Nick moved to TX after only a couple months of us knowing each other and the rest is history .... I was blessed with my best friend, partner for life and amazing daddy for our kids.
We have come a long way since meeting 9 years ago ... from our tiny one bedroom apartment to our 2nd house. We have a amazing 2 year old daughter and 2 wonderful dogs. We have been blessed with super supportive families and awesome friends!!! We have jobs that are both secure and rewarding ... who could ask for more!!!
So heres to the past ... and I can't wait to see how amazing our future is going to be :)
Happy New Year!!!!
