Again...obviously we haven't done too great of a job in keeping everyone updated this past year. So, for those of you not on Facebook...here are a few highlights...
February 26 - Why not start with some snow?! At this point, Brian and I had never seen so much snow, and we were still excited about said snow. Fast-forward to now...not so much.
March - Paige and Justin came for a visit, in addition to seeing the NYC sites, we took a day trip to Philadelphia!

May 20 - What's a year without some Butch Walker? Webster Hall
 |
| ...and some Butch in the crowd. |
July - I took a trip down to Florida to visit and see my Grandma before her surgery, flew back to NY, and the next morning she passed. She was truly a genuine and kind person, and I miss her so much!

October - Brian took a new position with the same company in the city...no more commuting to Jersey City for him! He's still leasing apartments, but now he leases for three buildings on the Upper West Side. His office is a 12 minute walk from our apartment. :)
November/December - We headed down to Hollywood for Thanksgiving and Roxy's Bat Mitzvah and then on my birthday, we took the train up to Orlando to round out the Florida trip. It's just too bad I got very, very sick and spent the second leg holed up at my parents house. Did manage to see some good friends and Brian saw UCF beat UF in basketball in the new Amway Center!

Alright...are you still with me? Like I said, this is just a small highlight...we've gone to so many Broadway and Off-Broadway shows/musicals/plays, seen bands and comedy shows, been to many fantastic restaurants, and had some great visitors! It was an awesome year!
Lots of love to you all!
