For me, I'm going to have to say that 2009 was a pretty great year.

• The love of my life asked me to marry him in front of my parents on the front porch of their house on January 19th.
• I was then lucky enough to marry the love of my life on a gorgeous beach in La Jolla on April 7th.
• I started this blog shortly after our wedding. I never expected people to actually read it!
• We held our reception at my parents house on May 23rd.
• Kenai and Root Beer turned a year old in June.
• My wonderfully adorable nephew, Grayson, was born on June 30th.
• In July, we decided to throw out the birth control.
• I soon found the great community of bloggers, whom I love dearly.
• I turned 21 on September 1st.
• We celebrated our first Thanksgiving as a married couple.
• We celebrated our first Christmas as a married couple.
• Both of our mothers found out about us being off the pill.  Not so much great, but I'm glad that's kind of just out in the open now.
• We didn't get pregnant this year, but I'm hopeful for 2010.
• Tonight Hubs and I will get to share our first New Years kiss as Husband and Wife, and I couldn't be more excited.

I'm positive 2010 will be great. Have a great New Year!

Happy 6 Months, little boy! :)

He gets serious when the camera comes out.

And for a good laugh;

Yarrrrr! (For Busted Kate)

The Hubs has decided that we need to use his week of vacation time before it expires in June 2010.  So we thought an anniversary trip in April would be perfect.  We're not sure how much money we're going to have then, so we decided a small trip to see the Grand Canyon would be fun.  We've talked about doing the Grand Canyon Railway for awhile now.  We thought that would be perfect for a small anniversary trip.

Even though we would much rather see something like this;

But we just don't have the money for that right now.

Maybe someday...
