I said I’d be posting my tribute to 2008 and like most things in my life I am late for it. But I always use the saying “better late than never”. That is my motto. Procrastination is my friend. My best friend. Sorry Wade.
So without further adieu some of my favorite moments of 2008:
Going to Ft. Myers with my in-laws. Seriously I am the luckiest woman alive. My in-laws rule. Not many people can say that (and actually mean it!)
Bessemer ’08 – This used-to-be church has seen a lot of scandal!
E’s 2 attempts at a bachelorette party (neither of which turned out as planned, but both of which were fun!)
My old roomies coming to town
Brad & Erika’s Mexico wedding (the highlight of the year!)
St. Patrick’s Day Finnegan’s Pub Crawl
Seeing Zed Leppelin play again (GREAT cover band! Just look at that hair!)
Buying a new car
Turning 29 (my last year of my 20’s! Ahhhh!!!) and getting to see a lot of my wonderful friends!
Our 2nd Annual 4th of July kegger
Finishing our deck (and then having deck parties) and getting our stepping stones laid. Our back yard is finally starting to resemble a.... back yard!!! :)
Going to Galesburg and relaxing on Lake Braken (always practice water safety!) :)
Buzzards & Beer (the year of the stasches)
Going to Vegas to see ISU play UNLV (the 2nd top highlight of the year even though we lost!)
Getting together w/ good friends
Getting to see so many of my friends have babies and watching those that already have them grow! They are so cute! (This isn't even half of them! And there are still tons more on the way!)
Overall, 2008 was a great year for us. We were blessed w/ good health, great friends and family and wonderful times. We were really busy but we still managed to squeeze in a few fun trips. Here’s to hoping everyone has a wonderfulastic 2009!

Leading into 2009 I have already been given the honor of receiving another award! This one comes from Bon Don (one of my favorites and a BBF!) Thank you hun! I will try to pass this along shortly. I’m still trying to get caught up, but I wanted you to know I appreciate it!!!

I think I just fell in love with like, five of your friends.
I started drooling looking at all the drinking pictures. That damn Bloody Mary is calling my name!
What time is it?
Does it even matter?
Looks like you had a great year. I love the dog out on the water with you on the floaty. Even the dog had a great year.
Nice job working in "the shocker" hand gesture up there, and not a single mention of it in the caption?
For shame!

How cute is that little life jacket!! AHHHH I want one for Blue!

Thank you for reminding me that when you're married... you can still drink giant mugs of beers with your friends.
