2008

Hello to my family & friends, it's 2008! Happy New Year! Wow where did 2007 go?? So many wonderful things happened in 2007, things that I am proud of Here are a few:

1. My cousin (B) married a really great guy.. Glad to have you as part of my family Michael!

2. I got to go to Jamaica.. (That's where they got married). I got to go with my favorite aunt, she took me on my first plane trip, which was so much fun, I guess you could say I looked like a deer caught in the headlights when i saw the plane, and then when the runway came out of no-where in Jamaica, ask Josh I nearly tore a hole in his jeans because of it...

3. I met the coolest inlaws. Mrs. Regina & Mr. Billy, and Jennifer & Justin, & MawMaw & PawPaw, they are all super cool people, they took me in as part of the family even when i am not!!

4. God placed 2 wonderful people in my life, Mr. Ron & Ms. Patty, they truly are a Godsend.

5. I turned 26, in 2007, yeah i know only 4 more years before i hit the 30 mark, jeez i think here come a few more grey hairs.

6. My cousin brought home the love of his life to meet the family (God love him), Angie is the coolest person, He is truly happy with her, and i am super glad that he has met someone that accepts him as him even with his crazy family!!! (Yeah i know i am apart of that crazy family, if you haven't met some of us, then come on over one Thanksgiving or Christmas, and i am sure you will understand)..

7. My father retired from the state, he had an awesome retirement party and the thanks goes to Cousin Phyllis for all of that one!!! I love you cousin Phyllis.

8. My aunt met a new guy, she says he is good to her, but we will have to wait and see on that one.

9. I have gotten closer with some friends at work, we have always been close, but it has gotten a lot closer in the last few months.

10. I earned a new respect for my cousin Alice, and her hsuband Philip. Your a wonderful cousin Alice, and I love you for it.

11. My Uncle Donnie retired from the state, i hope he does realize i am going to have to call up there so i can hear Stu tell me, He is putting me on hold now!!!

12. Daniel was born, I am truly never met him before (yet), but I love the kid, he is adorable, there are several blogs with his pictures in it... I can't wait to meet him Angie.

13. I got almost a whole peanut butter pie to myself, how lucky can one girl get?

14. I learned something new from my cousin Kim, and she also earned a lot of respect in my book. Your the coolest Kim, I just hate i didn't realize it before this year!!! I look forward to having more conversations from you, you truly have showed me a lot in just one year!!

15. I got a Wii for Christmas. That thing is a lot of exercise!! If you wanna play give me a buzz.

16. I learned to follow in my aunt mays footsteps with the creative bug, she is so cool at it. I can't wait to work more with you on that in this upcoming year!! I love you aunt may.

17. I have gotten to spend a lot of time with my cousin bre, you truly are a Godsend to me Bre. I love spending time with you, going out to eat, watching the Lion King or Harry Potter, or just chillin in Walmart. I am thankful that I have you in my life, and that you have taken me in like a sister!! I love you for it.

18. I am also looking forward to being a better big cousin to my younger ones in the 2008 year!

19. Marley had to leave, so sad!! But I know you are glad for it.

20. I watched my Tyler & Cate Cate turn 2 in 2007. Oh my gosh where did the time go with them??? It seems like both of the mothers were pregnant just yesterday, yeah I know don't kill me Mel or Red.

Well I am off for today, We are going to go and do lunch at Granny Boozer's, guess you know what that means don't you??? I have to eat 5 blackeyed peas... Wow, maybe i will try for 6 this year so I can change my luck.

I hope you all have an awesome 2008!!!

Much Love
