Happy New Yizzle!

Wow, when I look back on 2008, I can't believe how much has happened and how much has changed! I definitely never would have never guessed that I would be in Utah! Its been a good year though, and I have accomplished a lot that I am proud of. This next year though, looks SOO exciting, and I am really looking forward to what the future holds for me! I have lots of exciting plans, and hope this year is better than ever! That sounds really overly-optimistic, but its true. :)

Christmas and New Years was great this year! My parents, brother and Taylor (his g-friend, and my friend/old roommate) drove up from Ca, and stayed for about 1 1/2 weeks. Taylor's dad came up from Az for 2 days and it was great fun too. (he's a retired NFL player, so my uncles and Dad had a lot of fun interviewing him:) Anyway, it was fabulous! Enjoy the pics!
