Highlights of 2008

It will be 2009 (Year of Ox) in almost a week. Some highlights of 2008 we'd like to share with our families and friends.

  • We got engaged. This probably the biggest thing that occurred this year. Dave and I went to China and we had a very informal engagement party with my family on my dad's side. We spent a day having our engagement pictures taken. It took a whole day. But the pictures turned out to be really good.
  • We bought a place together and become homeowners. Our home at Revere Beach is small but cozy.
  • We have our first two "kids", Susie and Simon. They are two cute kittens. When they first came, they were only 2 pounds. Simon is now 5 pounds and Susie is 4. They are so much fun. We enjoy being parents of the two kitties.
  • We did not take a lot of trips this year. We went to Puerto Rico for five days and China for two weeks (Dave was there for only a week). But we took a couple of short domestic trips, a weekend in midwest and a weekend in Seattle.
  • Career wise, I have no change this year, same company and same job. But I hope my home business will take off next year. Dave switched jobs during the year and end up at Ambient.

2008 feels short but is definitely a happy year for us.

Happy holidays to our families and friends.

Heather,

Thanks and happy new year to you too! We're really just getting started with the wedding plans now. We're trying to keep the actual wedding very small and minimal (but we won't skimp on the invitation cards ;)
