A Year

Here's just a quick look back at our 2011 - month by month. You can check out 2010 here, in case you're interested.

January - I started this blog. Can't believe it's been a year already... and yet... can't believe it's only been a year! I met my goal of blogging something personal an average of once a week or more. So Hooray for that!! We photographed a wedding, I took a Zumba class, started the HCG diet, went to Bingo down at the Casino for Val's birthday and WON! Made dinner for a friend who recently had a baby.

February - Dac turned 29. Celebrated Dac's birthday with a trip to Stillwater. Finished the HCG diet and swore to never do it again! Ugh! Continued Zumba, Wii Night, Criminal Minds watching, and time with Sky.

March - Finished the Zumba class, went cruise shopping, went to OKC to visit the ol' rommies. Got sick with a hardcore 24-hour stomach bug. Got better just in time to get on a cruise ship and enjoy a fabulous vacation in the Bahamas. Went bowling to celebrate some friends' birthdays.

April - Went to a different (and crazy) work conference for the first time. Stayed busy with Big Brothers/Big Sisters. Attended a Bible Study for a few weeks. Spent a fun day shopping with two great friends.

May - Started another busy and crazy photography season. Had tons of stuff going on at work. We took our first weekend-long babysitting job for two kids! Got our pictures taken! =)
