In honor of 2009, I take a moment to reflect on some of my goals accomplished. It's kind of like kicking the soccer ball into the goal and it splitting on the post and only half actually going in... or maybe 1/3. Either way I figure it's still something, right? Right. Also, a look back at some 2009 highlights.
2009 Goals:
1. After a rough 2008 in the weight department, and support of my family, I lost over 50 lbs. I still have a lot (and I mean A LOT) more to go, but it gives me hope and motivation to lose more. Here I am as Miss Piggy.
2. and 3. I decided to have Nicole (my beauty operator) put pink streaks/panels in my hair (which I loved, but have recently been colored out). I told myself this was the year I was going to Hawaii, and I did. Me and mom spent a week over my birthday relaxing in Oahu. We had a great time and got to see a lot, and mom spent double the time at the beach than I did. I think she's 1/2 fish.
4. Two new temples (Draper and Oquirrh) were dedicated in '09. In September I set a goal to go to the temple once a month. I got 3 out of 4 (for year ending) which is once again a split ball, but hooray nonetheless. This goal is going on into 2010 though so we're shootin' for 12 out of 12 or more. I haven't been to the Oquirrh temple yet, but the Draper is beautiful. During the open house Nicole and I got in trouble for being silly and laughing. By Nate. Her husband. Good thing he was there to keep us in line.
2009 Highlights:
(in order of occurence through the year)
1. My good friend Anneliesa (Scott) got married in Mesa, Arizona in January, and my good friend Gabe (Brittany) got married in Oakland, California in June. I was lucky enough to attend both and had a sooooouper fun time.
2. We had a suprise baby shower for Addie at her favorite place Dear Lizzie.
3. Sophie blessed us with her presence July 6th (probably the fan favorite of all the highlights).
4. Nicole and I had a niece sleepover with Kt, Izzy, and Megan, which we're still exhausted from.
5. Nicole/Nate, Tom/Season, Anamae, and I went camping up in the Uinta's, complete with whistling games, spooky (or weird) stories around the campfire, and tons-o-fun!
6. In September Blake was baptized and Sophie blessed. We did them together in Hurricane. That was followed by lunch at Chuck-A-Rama where I ate my weight in cinnamon pull aparts, which is A LOT.
7. Kc was installed as the Senior Steward in his Mason chapter. Ma and Pa came up for the dinner/ceremony.
8. I purchased an antique dresser and desk (I'm assuming they are about 50 yrs old). Two lovely beaut's to go in my home office/sewing room.

In the year 2010 the only thing I hope to become is this:
Yes, a money hungry cat. Wish me luck.

I have to say the 2009 was a good 'un. We had a wacky time. I love your Miss Piggy pic. You're a hottie.
