House Hunting

Well, the past few weeks, Charles and I have been out looking for a house. Apartment life just isn't cutting it any more. We have outgrown the apt with all of our junk and we need more space. So, we got a realtor, a friend of a friend, who just so happens to be AWESOME! I'll recommend him to anyone.

After a long search, we have found a winner. It turned out to be a really great deal that we can't pass up. It is in a great neighborhood and it has tons of space with a big back yard. Rowdy and Bailey are very excited about that and so are we.

I'll post pictures soon, but we still have a lot of work to do.

Run a 10K?

Last night my friend Anna Beth and I somehow came to an agreement to train for and run a 10K. I am not exactly sure how I agreed to this...I haven't run more than a mile in FOREVER. I guess I haven't run that much since high school cross country. Plus I have torn my ACL twice. What was I thinking? Maybe it was the fondue or the wine, wait...I wasn't drinking any. Oh no....

I'll keep you posted.

Happy New Year...looking back

NEW YEARS
Charles and I celebrated the new year with our friends Ryan and Alycia, and Peter. We had a great time. We stayed in, played pictionary, and ate Alycia's yummy enchiladas. We stayed up till way past midnight, 4:00...talk about being tired the next day. I think we all got up around noon. We ended up watching our wedding video and we had some more laughs. Unfortunately my camera battery died and I didn't get to take any pictures. :(

LOOKING BACK to 2008...
What can I say about 2008? Well, a lot happened.

*I got married!!! After 4 + years, Charles and I finally tied the knot. We had a beautiful wedding and a great reception. It was just the best day ever! I have the best husband.
*I got a great bunch of kindergartners this year. I have the best class. They are so smart and so sweet. I can't complain there. There were a bunch of changes this year with our school, but things seem to be getting better. Our team has bonded so much this year, I am really glad I have been able to get to know them away from school.
*I also have gotten to reconnect with some friends this year, old college friends, work friends, and even some that I have known since elementary school.
*Charles and I had the best Halloween costumes this year. We were He-Man and She-Ra. My sister did an AWESOME job on our costumes. YAYYY!!!!
*I got hooked on Twilight. Charles still hasn't read them yet, but we are reading more for fun. I also went to see the movie with my sister and Abby.
*Obama got elected...
*Gas got cheaper....finally.
*Britney made a comeback.
*We discovered our love for wine, Divine Wines in particular. Yumm-o
*I discovered that I liked the show True Blood on HBO.

That's not everything that happened, just a few. I could go on and on forever.
I can 't wait to see what 2009 holds for us. ;)
