Happy New Year

5 Days in and I just can't believe that its 2010 already! Life in 2009 was a great experience for certain. January 09, started with Jermaine heading for Arizona to train and me getting ready to head to my second sales conference in Toronto. February was filled with planning both our wedding and my 10 year class reunion. I got to run up to Atlanta for a much needed GIRL Trip with Channa in March. April and May were laid back on travels and more focused on planning. June was nice! Birthday in D.C. while visiting my BFF Danielle, followed by the return of my husband to Alabama and My 3 day, 10 year class reunion (fun)! Also, my work girlfriends took me to ATL for a fun filled weekend. Next, J gets stationed in Augusta, Georgia and July I'm again on a much needed Girls Trip to New Orleans (Essence Festival. August wrapped up planning which led to September 5th, the day we got MARRIED and September 6th we are headed to lovely Miami! November was spent with my family, leaving my place of employment of 7 years and a Birmingham (where I grew up)and relocating to Augusta, Georgia. We joined a very nice church family here, Destiny Worship Center and that ended November. December, I'm employed at a nice little part time and enjoying life as a newly wed.

Again, 5 days in and I can't believe its 2010, but I'm so thankful for it and can't wait to see what this year will be.
