-I discovered I like organizing and have slowly been getting many things out of my house or in final "homes" in my storage room. I also cleaned out our small shed, installed some shelves and reorganized it.
-I decided I wanted a patio so I starting digging a hole in our backyard. DH thought it looked ugly (lol) so he grabbed the skidloader and finished the job. Then he helped (along with my brother) finish with the sand and patio block. This year I want a garage so as soon as this snow is gone for good I'm going to start digging a big hole in that area as well.
-We took a family road-trip to Florida, Griswold style. The accomplishment is that we still liked each other by the time we got home!
-I put my foot down about bday parties. I will NO longer plan them around anyone so if you decide to vacay when one of our kid's turns a year older, too bad, no cake for you.
-We bought a treadmill in July and I have yet to think about selling it or packing it away in storage. Not only that but I still use it!!
Was pregnant with #2- and had a healthy and very happy baby boy.
Went on several great vacations with our little family of three (with baby in tow in belly) including a trip to Italy and a cruise to the Bahamas. Took Gisele to Disney for the day.
Grew my business in 2010 by around 35%- and hired three new staff members-
Completed my graduate law degree LLM-
finally refished the powder room and I LOVE it.
Became a lot closer with my parents- (big accomplishment for our family)
