This past year was the best year of my life. I married my best friend, finished my first year of teaching, and rekindled several wonderful friendships.
For New Year's Eve, Casey and I went to Nacogdoches to spend the weekend with Leigh Anne, James, Christy, Nick, Jennifer, and Carl and I can truly say this was the best NYE to date. It was so relaxed and understated and it was wonderful to end the year with such great friends.
Here are some pictures from our weekend:
The girls and I with our sparklers!
The guys did a great job on the fireworks display!
Handsome Casey and me right before midnight. :)
Me and best friend Baker!
The New Year's hats were repurposed as dog bowls!
New Year's Day Shooting
Now for the resolution(s):
1. I will run my first half marathon. I am already working toward this - I signed up for the Austin Zooma half!
2. I will be more diligent.... in everything! I am a GREAT starter, but I have a hard time keeping up with things after I start them and I'm even worse at finishing things. This blog has been one of the only things I have continued to do after starting... well ever!
3. I will paint more, draw more, take more photos, dress up more, cook more, bake more, read more, and generally DO more with my life. As much as I love to sleep and lay on the couch watching crap television, I deserve better and so does Casey. I want to get out and do more with our lives. I want to take the dogs on more walks. I want to watch more movies than TV shows. I want to read more books than magazines (I LOVE magazines...) and I want to foster my relationships with family and friends more than ever.
4. This year, we WILL travel more. I absolutely love to travel... if I had one thing that was the most important thing that I wanted to do with my life (besides becoming a mother, and other family responsibilities) it would be to travel as much as possible. So far this year Casey and/or myself will be traveling to the following places:
So hello 2011 and Happy New Year to everyone!

So far this year Casey and/or myself will be traveling to the following places:
- St. Lucia (maybe) for our honeymoon in March
- New York (again) to visit family
- California (for Casey's work)
- Colorado for a family vacation
- New Mexico to visit Christy and Nick
- On a cruise for Leigh Anne's bachelorette party
- Possibly Indiana or Missouri to check out campuses if Casey decides to go to Seminary.
So hello 2011 and Happy New Year to everyone!
