2011- A Review

I can't believe one year has FLOWN by...and thinking back I can barely remember what has happened. Hopefully as I wrack my brain going through the months I remember some things...

January: 


I rang in the new year at the local casino with great friends. Amber came to visit from Maryland after her trip from Whales, mind you, she did not even have her luggage yet ;) 

Alyssa and I took our first trip to Maine to visit Katie!

Went snowshoeing in Maine 

February:

Steven asked me ever-so sweetly to be his Valentine by making magnets of him and I (with Maxwell, of course) and his had a little saying bubble that said "Will you be my Valentine". I chose the "Yes" magnet to put next to mine after I saw it on my fridge <3

March: 
Amber came to visit me for a WHOLE week and we went to Boston to visit Katie for the weekend. 
We went out for Mardi Gras too <3 

April:
Included a trip to Boston, Ashley visiting me, and celebrating Katie's birthday




 May:
BARCELONAAAAA


Steven and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary <3



June:

July:

August:

Amber visited. Lost my bathing suit at the beach. I am not kidding. Completely off. 
Took another Boston Trip....
Attended another wedding of two friends, Mark and Rebecca

September:
Started my second year of graduate school
Went apple picking for the first time!!

October: 
Celebrated love by attending TWO weddings
 PLUS a wedding party for a friend who got married in Jamaica 
Taught Maxwell how to play fetch




November:
I participated in package pals
Katie AND Ashley visited me (yayyyyy)
Attended my last wedding of 2011 



December: 
Made rock candy while babysitting
Wrapped presents with Maxwell
Made homemade pizza with my Aunts
Celebrated the holidays with family
Went to Chicago






Well, this was hard.  It was awesome to reflect on all I've done. 

I'm glad I have this blog to look back on and share my experiences with.  Next year this should be a "piece of cake"

  5. What an eventful year ! I just remembered to watch this post, and how pheoow how many photos were here! :) So lovely post. I'm slightly jealous of how much memories you've gathered along the year, at some very good times with friend & family I didn't have camera !

    Thank you so much for your comment. I do my nails very rarely.. When the base colour is dry, I made these little stars by adding spots of white colour, and used needle to draw lines from center. maybe 5 or so in total. Tadaa :)
