welcome 2009!

2009 already?! 2008 flew by so quickly.
highlights of 08: adopting remington, going to az/seeind the grand canyon/getting engaged in the grand canyon, buying a house and moving in, getting into the nursing program.
lowlights of 08: waiting to make sure we could adopt remington & not someone else, waiting to see if we could buy this house, waiting to see if i got into the nursing program, grandpa having a heart attack.
overall, an amazing year!
what i'm looking forward to in 09: wedding events (wedding shower, bachelorette party, wedding itself, and honeymoon!), nursing classes, and landscaping this summer.
:) Happy 09 everyone!

I rang in 09 at Jeremy's apartment with him and lili. Ry stopped by right in time (he was working) for about 15 mintes so we were able to ring in the new year together (and rem too). I had a fun evening with a few cocktails with them as well. Not a real wild night, and I went home around 1:30.
Friday night a group of us to celebrate the newest cop in gb finishing training and had a fun night out to b-dubs and kickers bar/club!
Grandpa is recovering, and was released to go home today, much to the happiness & relief of the entire family (most of all, grandma).
A good friend of the family, petuck, passed away last night. he was 91 and in hospice for the last 2 months, so it was time for him to go. i'll be going back out to lbg for the funeral later this week. :(
I have one week left of my winter break, before classes resume jan 12. Most of it I will be working (to pay for all those expensive medical books), as well as relaxing as I know my time will be lessened quite a bit. I'm excited & nervous to begin my classes... but mostly excited! I have orientation all day Tuesday so I'll know more of what is in store for me!
For now, back to a pretty good book & snuggle time with my men. :)
