2008

January saw us knee deep in snow and trying to keeps our heads above water with work. Not a spectacular way to ring in the new year, but some months are like that.

February saw the arrival of a new little one in our family. Yes, that's right...we bought our Blueberry Yaris!! We love this little car and the money it has saved us this year!

March saw the arrival of another new little addition to our family; my most prized possession...my Macbook Pro! I can't believe I've only had it for less than a year! It feels like we've known one another all our lives.
March also saw us having a blast in Fort Lauderdale with this very fun couple! Oh, the memories!! "Las Olas!!!!"

April was a month to hook up with good friends in Kingston. I have never laughed so hard in my life and have never been as surprised as I was when I saw my best friend and her husband walk through the hotel doors!! What great times!!

May was a month of highs and lows. We experienced another miscarriage and it was difficult to work through the pain of it all. We pushed through it, though and are stronger for the challenge.
The highs in May included a much needed trip down the 401 with Catherine to catch up with Michelle and Mark at Doris and Dan's house for our annual Montreal Bloggy Summit. VERY good times were had.

Another fun high in May was seeing Sex and The City with Tanya in Kingston. A tradition that I think will continue for a long time.

In June, my brother and G-Man lost their beloved Henry. Such a good pup and gone too soon.

July brought fun in the sun as we jetted to Barbados with Tanya and her family. We laughed and laughed and laughed some more throughout the whole trip. Okay, I cried ONCE in the grocery store, but that's it!

August saw K2 and I riding the Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland. We felt very old standing in line amid all the teenagers, but the ride made it all worthwhile and it certainly delivered the thrill we were seeking.
August also saw us celebrating our 12th wedding anniversary! We're still kicking after all these years!

In September, our sweet G-Man started kindergarten!! Why do they grow up so fast? My brother told us that at parent/teacher interviews, the teacher said that G-Man was at the top of his class and in the "Zipper Club" for knowing how to zipper up his own jacket. How freaking cute is that?

In November, I chopped off all of my long locks in favor of a much shorter cut. I regret it, I won't lie, but it grows fast and will be long again by May.
Twilight premiered in November, so Tanya and I met in Kingston for a second time to view the film together. Good times, man...good times.

And now it's the end of December. December has been a busy, but fun month and our Christmas has been a lovely one spent with family and friends. Not a bad way to end the year, I tell ya.

Here's to the arrival of many new faces in 2009!! In particular, we look forward to seeing Daphne's face, Hannah's face, and Red Sand and Enviroman's new little one!! 2009 is going to be an amazing year for so many of my friends and I can't wait to be a part of it!
Happy New year!!
