January: I was asked to be the maid of honor in my best friends wedding, my mom celebrated her birthday, but most importantly, I was there to welcome my first nephew into the world.
February: Celebrated my dad's birthday and Valentine's day by spending time with my nephew, and also celebrated Jake's 23rd birthday.
March: Took one of the biggest steps of my life thus far, and moved in with my boyfriend. Jake and I also celebrated our fifth year of being together.
April: completed my junior year of college, and made the dean's list.
May: My sister graduated from college
June: Worked, worked, and worked some more! We also got the news of two more engagements and another wedding that I would be in.
July: The month I began blogging. I celebrated one of my best friends 21st birthdays. Jake and I also traveled out east to visit family and my new baby cousin, Sarah, as well as helped to move friends back to Wisconsin from Pennsylvania.
August: Prepared to begin my senior year of college. Celebrated my brothers birthday, and Jake's best friend got married.
September: Working hard at school, and I also got a job at a nearby daycare.
October: This was a fairly eventful month. Celebrated birthday's of a few friends and Jake's family members.
November: This was a very difficult month for me. A best-friend of eight years (+) parted our separate ways, and I was laid-off from the daycare. This was not good considering the next month was December. It added a lot of extra stress on both Jake and I. A few horrible things happened to family members, but it all began to work itself out. I ended my cross country season, and possibly my cross country career. One of the good things in the month was my sister-in-law's birthday :)
December: Everything ended up to work out this month. I spent a lot of hours at work at the mall. I was able to celebrate my sisters birthday, my birthday, Christmas, and New Years with the people I love. I also found out that I got a coaching job for this next spring at a local middle school, as well as preparing for my own track season at WSU.
I'm sure there are many things that I have forgotten about, but these are the events that stand out when I reflect on the last year. I think this would be something nice for anyone who reads this to do as well. It would be a nice little thing just to see what the year has brought other people as well....

Oh, I love it! Glad that my birthday brought some happiness to November--although I was not in the best of spirits after a long night of conferences. The cheesecake was SO good--I'll take one anytime you feel like making it :-)
