What a difference a year makes! Goodbye 2009!

I don't know if any year can top 2009....so many great things happened for us! DJ and I were talking last night about where we were last year on New Year's Eve. I was visiting him in Kyle and we were spending our first NYE together at his place. It was a pretty uneventful night, but we were so happy just to be together after all we had been through the year before. I ended up getting SO SICK the very next day...some kind of stomach virus or food poisoning, and he took such good care of me that I knew he was the most special person I ever met. That weekend was significant in our relationship.

So many things happened after that and so quickly! We got pregnant, got married, our families met, DJ moved here to be with me, and finally our lives merged. And then Nate was born! He was the best gift of the year....no, make that the entire decade! And we spent NYE 2009 much like last year, only at our own home and with the addition of our beautiful son. I can't believe I started out 2009 as a single gal living with her sister and ended it married and a new mommy! It's incredible.

We can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us. We are looking forward to all of Nate's "first" moments and all of the activities that being new parents will bring. I wish the best for all of our friends and family and give thanks for all of our loved ones. You have all been so important in our lives, and now you will get to know Nate as well. Have a blessed year everyone!
