New Years Eve

This was the best new years eve I've had since 2001. The new year was celebrated with sweet tea vodka, playing edward 40 hands (or edward Jack hands if you're Ryan), good friends, kisses, Hot tubs, and puppies.





2010 will be a wonderful year. We are looking foward to the Murty's baby, Harty's adoption, many couples to get preggers, Rickers wedding, Slattery wedding, our wedding, Powell wedding and many more weddings...







Cheers to 2010

Last days...

The last few days of December were a little hard. Bryan and I gave up our lovely blue and brown apartment and moved in with his parents. Our hope is that we are able to save money for a future house. It'll take some time but we are looking forward to the possibilities! Although we are happy about our choice, it wasn't easy to leave the apartment. I have lived there for 3 and half years...Thats the longest place I have live since my parents were married. Bryan and I lived there together for 2 and half years and there are just so many happy memories there.



We enjoyed our last evening of the apartment hot tub!

Our Christmas Stockings 2007-2009


Moving day was a sad but playful day




Bryan knew that if we made the day playful it wouldn't be so sad for me. It worked until I saw the empty room.



These were our last few moments in the apartment. Me and my Blue wall I painted...Wonderful Snowman will miss Scarecrow...






Good Bye apartment 334! You were good to us...

Engaged at Christmas

This year Christmas was extra fun. This was Bryan and I's first year of doing all Christmas stuff together. Christmas was filled with so much love, family and friends. Every year Bryan makes a Christmas Carol. This year we did one together. Whenever the Christmas carol "cold outside" comes on Bryan and I sing it but we change the words. The song sounds very creepy to begin with, so we just push it over the edge. This year we actually produced our version of it. We had a ton of fun. Bryan also had my little Neice, Scarlett, in the studio. She sang two songs and they were great, cheap Christmas gifts! I'm not sure how to put sound on this blog but once I do, I'll put it up!

Bryan got a golf club...if you couldn't tell by the wrap job :)


This is Bryan's Christmas Beard...He grows it every year because he doesn't have to teach for two weeks because of the holidays. This year it came in really full. I think next year it'll be a monster!


Camping in the Mud caves after Christmas!!!





For the past couple of years our friends Danny and Kelly (soon to be The Rickers) throws a Holiday dinner. This was our second year going and we always have so much fun!




This is the whole group!




The Rickers do such a great job of 'Making Christmas'


These three ladies are Engaged!!!

I hate Kurt Maloney!

The title of this blog may come to a shock to some of you...well I guess I should say most of you. You are correct in being shocked. My haterd only started last night! Bryan and live for flip cup. We breathe flip cup and cherish the times we get to play flip cup. At our Stamp party we played flip cup all night. There is one game in particular that I will remember for my whole life...and Kurt messed it up for us. The team was a group of lovely, talented ladies. Their drinking and flipping abilities are quite impressive. I started our team off with a perfect one and done, my team continued with this wonderful trend. I couldn't believe my eyes. Could our team really do a complete round with ALL one and dones? My happiness grew as Becky got a one and done because I knew Sarah Parga could pull off a one and done. She was our anchor, our strength! Just then Kurt Maloney stepped in and runied it. I HATE KURT MALONEY!

Postage stamp party

One afternoon I was drinking coffee (and bailey's) with my roommates. I was telling them of all the stamps Bryan and I have to buy to send out invites, save the dates, RSVP cards, and thank yous. It adds up fast. They mentioned that I should just have a postage stamp party...That is how this party came to be. It was a wonderful evening full of Christmas cheer, stamps and flip cup. Thanks everyone for coming. you made it wonderful!





Snowman and Scarecrow had a blast at the party!!! Jamie had a little too much fun with snowman!


It was a wonderful time!!!

Winning at flip cup!!!!

Wedding chain continues!

The wedding chain getting shorter!!! We are already in December! Sadly the chain will not be making it all the way around this apartment...Bryan and I are moving into his parents house to save money for a house. We feel that now is the time to buy and so we don't want to miss out on this great opportunity! The chain will find a new home at the new place.

October wedding chain

Although it is hard to see, this is our wedding chain in October/November.
