even though it is only february, i feel like 2009 is just FLYING by. i hardly have enough time to read blogs let alone update mine, but here I am today. It's Mardi Gras so students are out. This is probably the first Mardi Gras season I have not been to New Orleans or a single parade... and I think I'm okay with it. I've got lots more Mardi Gras' in me.


Anyways, so 2009 while fast, is seeming to be a pretty good year. In January, Dale and I hit 6 months of marriage. That was surprising.. just how fast it goes. I can see us in 10 years wondering where the time has gone. I love love love being married though and to see how we have changed and grown more in love in just 7 months is amazing to me. I never thought I'd learn how to cook but you really just have to practice. And Dale is getting better every week as far as helping around the house and picking up on my moods and what I need from him. Bless his sweet heart.


We have also joined the Y and Dale shoots hoops downstairs while I hop on a treadmill 3 or so times a week. I am actually enjoying being active, I just hope we stick with it. I've lost about 10lbs and he has lost near that much too. (Of course, he can sweat for an hour and be 8lbs lighter... I can workout for 4 hours and weigh MORE.)


The head coach at Perry Central (where Dale coached) has left for a new job so there is a little uncertainty about whether or not Dale will be coaching at the high school next year. BUT he still has his jr. high head coaching job and a teaching job so I would say we are pretty lucky.


On a side note, I need a hair cut. Any suggestions? I try every year to grow my hair out but once it gets a certain length, there's just nothing I can do with it but pull it back.

How has your 2009 been? Are you following through on your resolutions?
