2010 Year in Review

I am not going to be able to do any blogging for the next couple of days, so I thought I would do my year end post today at work.  It's maintenance week here, and I don't have anything better to do!  Warning: Lots of pictures ahead.  :)

So here is a list of the main things that I did during this year (in mostly chronological order):
- I bought a house.  (and emptied my savings account...)
                                      
- Went to Oaklawn twice.  pretty sure I didn't win, but the point is to have fun right?  See the man in the purple had and fur coat that Lyndsey is pointing at?  I think he looks like Flava Flav. haha.  The people watching there is the best.
                                  
- Went to Guadalajara for 9 days with the IBUS class.  Got sick in Mexico- who hasn't??  This picture is of me and a giant agave plant, which is used to make tequila.  This was my favorite field trip.  After this, we went to the Jose Cuervo plant.  It was awesome.
                                  
- Joined jasmere- which I love and I am a "SuperFan."
- Baby brother was born.
- Went to a few Travelers baseball games.  Got several sunburns.  :)
                                  
- Went to 2 Razorback football games.  Woo pig!  Wish I was going to the Sugar Bowl to cheer them on!
                                  
- Donated my hair for the 3rd time.  This is an after pic.  See how long it is in the Mexico picture??
                                        
- Went to the Greek Food Festival.  Bought more cookies and baklava than I should have.
- Liza and Lisa threw me a house warming party.
                                  
- Went to Elizabeth and Adam's wedding.  This is me and Desi at the wedding.  p.s. It was hot!!
                                  
- Went to Memphis with some friends.
                                  
- Went to the Lake of the Ozarks with the family.
- Started volunteering with Stone Soup.
- Started doing the EDGE for the 5th and 6th graders on Wednesday nights at church.  Here we are playing a game.
                                  
- Went to Nashville for the first time for Laura's bachelorette party.
                                   
- Went to Kansas City and stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge.
                                   
- Had an overhead light put in my living room.  yay!  we can finally see!
- Went to Laura and Hal's wedding.
                                    
- Did Race for the Cure with my mom, who is a survivor!

  1. Seems like quite the year. Thanks for putting me on your blogroll, too!

    I must say that when I read about the baklava, my mouth watered. There's a diner near where I work that serves baklava cheesecake. Holy cow-- it's good. :-)

    Wasn't Wicked awesome??

    Happy New Year!
