This past year was such a good one for Keith and I. One of my favorite things about this year though... is that we've had this blog to capture it all. I've been having so much fun today going back through each month and reliving our year through pictures and stories. I hope that everyone has enjoyed reading about our lives as much as I've enjoyed writing about them. This was SUCH a momentous year for us... so here are some highlights:
In January I did a
recap of 2009 and marveled at how big our little Theo was getting:
In March my friend Molly and I posed like Rocky at the museum, then Keith and I went to Florida for
Spring Break, and I spent a weekend in
NYC to research for a paper I was writing. I did a little DIY project on our
futon and excitedly
counted down the days until our wedding.
In April
Katelyn Smith came to town and so did my
mother! Keith turned
24 and we found our new favorite
burger restaurant. We also went on a
date to see Date Night and then finished all our
apartment painting.
In May I completed my
first year of grad school and travelled to Nashville to see some best friends get
married. I put
wedding planning on overdrive, sent out our
invitations, went to my first
Phillies game and had an authentic
Jersey Shore experience with Aly.
In June
Carolyn and Isaac visited us and we spent many weekends
BBQing at Dan and Aly's. I had my first
wedding shower in upstate NY, went to the
zoo with mom and got
touristy with some family in town. I finished the month with a trip to
NYC for Father's Day.
July was the month we met the biggest cat in the world,
Henry for the first time. Jonathan
visited and took Keith to a couple Phillies games. I
went to Florida and said goodbye to my first pet
Lucy and then a couple weeks later we said goodbye to another close friend...
our car :(
In August WE GOT
MARRIED! Went on a fabulously relaxing
Honeymoon and bought our very first
car! It was the best month ever!
In September we took our new car on a trip to
DC, and we
went on lots of dates. We celebrated
Dan and Aly's engagement, and visited
Boston with them. It was such a busy month!
In October we roadtripped to
New York City and
then I baked a lot. Keith's
mother visited us and Theo turned
one year old! We celebrated our friends
new job and picked out a
pumpkin in time for Halloween.
In November we were FULL of surprises! We headed to
Florida for Kathleen's birthday and then
Jake and Robert visited us. Then! WE MOVED TO
NASHVILLE! I turned
23 and we had
Thanksgiving in Georgia.
And now to December.... we got some
snow, decorated our first
real tree together, and went to a
hockey game. We celebrated the anniversary of our
engagement and I fell in love with
my students.
SUCH an awesome year! It is going to be very hard to top this one, but I hope that 2011 will continue to impress us. We're excited to be here in Nashville and to see where this adventure takes us :) Thanks for sharing our world with us this year!!
