Dear 2009.

I wrote the date earlier today and at the moment the New Year finally sunk in. I guess it took a day and a half to hit me cause as December 31st became January 1st, I was at home on the couch with my husband laughing at the New York City broadcast. Two minutes into the New Year... we went to bed.

There was no big celebration for us this year. To be honest, it's just another transition. We spent the end of 2009 together and started 2010 together. I guess that is all that really matters. But after I wrote 1/2/2010 today, I wondered where the year had gone. I was having a hard time remembering anything at all that had transpired the last twelve months. And like I always do in such a confusing moment, I panicked and felt like I wasn't living enough of my life.

So 2009.

I would hate for 2009 to be the year I zoned out on, so I will take some time to reminisce. Here are a few of the accomplishments, events, and moments of 2009.

We moved into our second apartment.

Brett turned 23.

We got a super cute nephew.

Brett got a new job.

I turned 21.

We bought a new car.

We lost a faithful car.

I graduated from hair school hell.

We got a 105 year old piano for free.

We took our car on a road trip.

Brett got employee of the month.

I refinished a kitchen table and bed bench.

We dressed as nerds for Halloween.

I got a new job.

As you can see it was so incredibly eventful that nothing will ever top it. Happy New Year.

Love.

The Days.
