2009 in Pictures

In January we bought our first house!

We became official homeowners in February…and began cleaning, painting, and installing new carpet and appliances.

In March we moved in! And we were blessed that the husband got a new job!

In April we celebrated Mo and Ali’s engagement. Their wedding is May 2010 and the husband is a groomsmen and I get to be a reader…so excited!

In May we did a bunch of work in our yard.

In June the husband was in his friend Randy’s wedding.

And then in July we did something that would change our lives dramatically…we got a puppy, Wrigley.

In August my best friend Erin got engaged to Mike. Their wedding is September 2010 and I get to be the matron of honor!

In September my mom came out to visit and we went to the Country Living Fair in Ohio.

In October we celebrated one year of marriage….up in a hot air balloon.

In November I went to California for work and got to visit with my best girls.

And in December we celebrated our second Christmas as a married couple and first in our new home.

Happy New Year! We are so excited to see what 2010 brings!
