2014 in Review...

Growing up all the old people use to say that "life goes by so quickly when you're older". Well it turns out that I've become one of those old people... It became very apparent today while at a baby shower for one of my high school girlfriends. No, it wasn't the fact that she's having a baby - she's not the first. The reality came crashing down as I reminisced with the girls about the beginning of our friendships... just over 10 years ago. Holy heck! I am now one of those people that can say things like "10 years ago..."

And so of course another year has passed... quite quickly. So here it is recapped mostly in picture form for your viewing pleasure (but mostly for me because it's hard to remember everything that happens in a year).

  1. What a fun year! I am sure this year will be filled with fun adventures too and I will be jealous. Yep, I have my own adventures but I always want more.
    Yesterday I went rollerblading and realized that I have owned my Rollerblades for 15 years. That's almost as old as you. ;)
    I get it though, I am feeling old too. When you say it's crazy is been ten years since something happened, I am at the point where I am surprised it's been twenty years since something happened.
