2006.
I'm sad to see it go. I have to admit, I was trying to think of something in my usual Cranky Grandma style, but I can't do it. I can't think of anything bad that happened this year. Sure, there were a couple of plates chipped and few new gray hairs, but I have to say it was a truly great year.
It all started New Years Eve 2005. A few lies sprinkled around, "oh, you know we have a couple of NYE parties to go to" when secretly all we did was stay home on the futon. Alone. With spooky movies we were to spooked to watch. A great dinner cooked by Dave-0-vicious himself and dreaming of what would be.
What would be. Was. Great.
The new Husband.
The new life.
The Wedding. Glitz and Glamour
The trip Up North where we spent the day chasing down Moose tracks and counting the dancing deer.
Our fab new apartment that we love, love, love
Decorating
Trying new recipes
Discovering all the new "firsts"
Project Runway Wednesdays turned Top Chef Wednesdays turned just another excuse to eat a lot and be with friends Wednesdays
The Minivan purchase. Say it ain't so!
New friends
The weekend getaways
Driving the folks down to Chicago for a bonafide Midwestern Thanksgiving Extravaganza!
The lazy Sundays just sitting and reading
Our very first Christmas Tree
Watching Him run around the house looking for little treasures
The birthday trip to Chicago. The pimped out hotel!
Watching Jo and Kelly married!
Baby Jack
My best year ever at work
But the very best was just being. Just sitting back and enjoying.
Here's to 2007. Can't wait to see what's to come.
