A Look Back on 2009

So another year is over and done with. My goodness, how time flies! Wasn't it just a month or so ago that Angie and I were in Las Vegas counting down the New Year!?!

As something fun, I'm going to remember a few of the good times I had this year. I hope you enjoy reminiscing with me...

  • A very spur of the moment, 48 hour trip to Las Vegas with Angie. The casinos all close on New Year's unless you have a room there. This being said... anyone going to the strip on this special occasion has to stay on the strip. Sure that's fun for the first few laps... We finally went and saw "Yes, Man" and then headed back to watch the countdown afterwards. We did get awesome 2009 glasses and Angie got her bum touched by a drunk guy! Woo hoo! We also went to "Popavich's Pet Comeday Show". I HIGHLY recommend it to all!
  • Pretty much every Monday (at least for two consecutive rounds of 6 weeks) I got together with Angie and Krissy to watch the "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette"! Very good times!!! It starts again on Monday!!! I'm not really a fan of who the Bachelor is going to be this time... but maybe that will make it all the better. Hmmm....
  • Once a month was lovely BPMN with the Crawford's. We picked an Oscar Best Picture and watched it. Good times, and good lines.
  • My Danny had a birthday party and it was Monster Truck! Yay for Danny! And YAY for Monster Truck!
  • A good time was had when Hannah, Maggie and I went to a Pow Wow at the University of Utah. We found lovely jewelry and a scrumptious dinner was had after at the Village Inn. Oh, and Maggie let me drive her VW Bug! A dream come true.
  • Shortly after, the same girls and I, along with Miss Angie-pants went to a SLC Roller Derby! Good times. Girls really can be so fierce!
  • One of the BEST times this year was when Jake and I snuck into X96 and met Kiefer Sutherland!!! Yes, we really met him and we totally snuck our way in! It was so 24 of us. Kiefer was pretty drunk (at 8 in the morning), but we got some good pictures from him anyways.
  • Made a few trips to Bear Lake to visit Danny and Jonny. Visited a cave, ate ice cream, played in the water and caught a few movies. ALSO... just happened to cross Bear Lake in a paddle boat. With Jonny. It was awesome. Whatever.
  • Sara Browning and I catch a concert every year, and this one was pretty cool. It was American Idol. What could be better??? Oh Adam and Kris! How lovely you are!
  • BFA and I went to Circe de Soliel. AMAZING! I'm still not sure how they did all those tricks. Or how they were ever brave enough to realize they could do those tricks...
  • I moved to SLC... and I love it! Kitty wasn't so happy about it at first... but she's adjusted. So I guess this also leads to me telling you about the HUGE fight Kitty and I had. She wouldn't talk to me for 3 weeks! Nothing but hissing anytime I went by. Poor little girl.
  • Jake and Curtis were in plays. I saw them. They were good.
  • My BFF Bek Shmek got married on me. She was beautiful! I got to be the maid-of-honor and it was one of the best days yet!
  • My SO fun co-workers and I went to Oktoberfest. Trevy had a little too much to drink, but he now knows what all the bathrooms look like at Snowbird. Oh the yummy food! Was there anything else there?
  • A while later, Trevor, Jake and I had a fun adventure to Wendover. We went on the Fun Bus and I won at BINGO! The buffet was yummy. What we did for 6 hours in Wendover, I'm not sure. How I lasted 11 hours straight with those guys... I'm not sure.
  • Many nights of "Office" watching. Pie eating. Game playing. And movie watching. All good times had by me in 2009.

You have a lot to live up to 2010...
