Happy 2010!

Hey, where'd the first decade of the Millennium go? I swear I was just in Cleveland planning an Ohio winter escape. Six months later, I was settling into a new life in Atlanta, then in Miami and finally, truly settling, with a sweet husband and baby in Houston. Who knew? Certainly not that 22/23 year old girl in Cleveland....
I sort of dropped off there for awhile so I posted a "crib sheet" album of our past year. We capped off the year with a family vacation to Cabo San Lucas with our dear friends, the Driskills. Beautiful place....but would have likely been even more enjoyable without a freak tropical storm.
Nick turned 2 and we celebrated on Halloween with a party in the park with almost 100 friends and family! It was a gorgeous day so noone (me) had a nervous breakdown. In Novemeber, we continued on with the year of travel by DRIVING to Ohio for Thanksgiving. Nick was a trooper on the 2-day, 18-hour journey. Since we were already in Ohio, we continued driving up to Chicago for Tansy and Tim's wedding. AMAZING.
This was the first Christmas that Nick had any awareness at all about Santa or "Ho-Ho" as he called the big guy. I have a feeling my love of Christmas is going to go into overdrive in these next precious years with a sweet boy in the house! We rang in the new year playing cards with the Bullards and Paynes. Wonderful, low-key and a lovely way to ring in this new decade and chapter of our lives.

By the way, I received a Flip video camera for Christmas so consider this your warning.....I'm about to go video posting NUTS!

Happy New Year, y'all!
