Why hello 2010!

So here it is, a new year. I think I've just decided my resolution is to be awesome this year, is that lame?  I couldn't think of anything else.  I mean, there are about a million things I want to do with my life, but I'm not sure they are meant to happen this year.  So if I end up doing some of those things it will just be an added bonus, right?

So every New Year's Eve from now on, I will have a new party to attend.  A birthday party that is.  Yesterday we celebrated my nephew's 1st birthday!  They year before that I was in the hospital with my family awaiting his arrival.  What a great way to start a new year, celebrating the life of a sweet little guy.

Yes, this picture is awkward, but I love his expression.  He loves his Aunt Lauren :)

Who needs birthday cake when there are animal crackers? Srsly.

John and I went to a party last night at a friend's house.  There was a shrimp boil and live music and we had a really great time.  It's awesome to bring in a new year with great friends.  As per the usual as of late, I only have one picture.  And I look awkward, but I LOVED my outfit.

Here's to an awesome 2010 for everyone!  Who knows, it could be the most epic year we have seen!
