It sure has been a while. The last time I posted anything was in January, I believe. The start of this year...and it's already the end!
It's safe to say that 2009 went by WAY too fast! Many things have changed over the past 10 months, in so many ways. Most of them good, no worries! I've made a ton of new friends through work and church. I did a bunch of mini trips around Alberta and Saskatchewan with Brandon. I really think that it doesn't matter how far you go, being able to leave the city and experience something new is always a good thing! We went to his grandma's wedding (dad's side) and celebrated his other grandparents (mum's side) 50th anniversary! Most of this years good news has happened in the past couple of months, which is good, because I can remember details!
First, Brandon and I celebrated our first anniversary (of dating), which I think is really cool! Man, is he ever amazing! I know it's said that relationships take work, and I definitely agree...so why is this so easy? Haha. I guess it is only a year. It just seems like a long time to me, being a young'in and all! A year is a long time when you're only 19.
Talon, my youngest brother, turned 5 in September! His first day of ECS was this past August. It's Talon's first year or school, and Tyrin's last!(my second brother). Tyrin went to England again for his third time in June, as well as traveling across Canada playing soccer. He made it on to the provincial team, and later went on to win nationals! Ty will also be graduating this year. I'm very proud of both my brothers :)
In more recent news, one of my best friends, Ben King, recently got engaged! I feel terrible, because I was supposed to help him pick out the engagement ring, but our schedules didn't line up, and he did it without me. HOWEVER, he did decide he wasn't going to wait until Christmas like he said he would. Instead, he proposed two days after purchasing the ring, lol. So I didn't even get to see it first! But I am super blessed that they asked me to plan their wedding! Another thing that has happened this year! I've decided to wait to go to University for a little while, and so I'm going to be taking courses to be a wedding planner, and hopefully join an agency shortly. So I'm SO lucky that Ben and Felicia asked me to do this for them. This way, I have some what of a "portfolio" piece and some great experience!
All together, there weren't any life altering changes this year...but it was filled with friends and laughter and memories, for sure. I have a feeling 2010 will be a good year as well!
God Bless!
