Looking back...

2009 was a great year! Here's a look back, in pictures.

My sister threw me an amazing bridal shower in January.


We spent four very chilly days in Chicago in February for my bachelorette party.

Got hitched in March.

Spent the best week of my life in Playa Mujeres, Mexico on our honeymoon.

Attended our first wedding as a married couple.

Spent a great weekend in Palm Coast for a good friend's bachelorette party.

There were more than a few fun summer nights out with the girls:

Joined the blogging world in July...

Saw Brit

and Kathy Griffin

Watched my baby brother graduate with his Master's Degree, then pack up and move to Boston.

Saw lots of Gator games from the couch...

and UCF home games at Brighthouse Networks Stadium.

Cooked countless loaves of pumpkin bread.

Found the perfect Halloween pumpkin.

Ran in The Amazing Race. {for Halloween}

Cooked my first Turkey Dinner

Spent Thanksgiving in NYC

Celebrated The Mister's 3oth Birthday

Traveled to see UCF choke in the St. Petersburg Bowl

Watched my baby brother get married to a sweet & beautiful girl.

And had a magical, wonderful "first" Christmas with my husband.

It has been such an amazing year. I'm not sure 2010 can top this year, but if it brings us half as much happiness, we'll be lucky, lucky people. I'm looking forward to the new year and all the events & adventures it will bring. In 2010, there are weddings to attend, babies to meet (not ours), our 1st anniversary and hopefully many more exciting adventures still unknown. Hope 2010 is a great year for us all!
