A whole new year


So, just about three weeks ago, December was coming to a close. Josh graduated from the police academy and started officially working for the Racine Police Department. I was frantically buying, wrapping, and spreading holiday cheer.

Josh and I had a great Christmas, celebrating in both Wisconsin and Illinois. We then had a fantastic New Years, ringing it in with my "Sara cousin" and her husband Tripp (and me imitating the Beatles on Rockband) in their adorable new home. And then...

I came to the startling realization that it is now 2010 and Josh and I are getting married in 2010. I was filled with a mix of excitement and panic. Excited because in just a little over 6 months I will be Josh's wife and he will be my husband, but panicked because there is a lot to still do. So, while it has taken me a few weeks, I have some resolutions:

1. Get married. That's right, this will be the year I get married and maybe even become an adult.

2. Focus on the excitment and less on the panic. The first thing I have done towards this goal is buy a planner and remember to take things one step at a time. It is helping, so far...

First up: We will be tasting food on Wednesday at 6:30 pm, and I will probably fast until then so that I can try as much as possible!
