In case you haven't heard, it's now 2009. You have to love the way that time just sneaks up on you from behind and throws the onion bag over your head. I'm not even sure where 2008 went, just poof and it's 2009. We ended the year with a bang. Spent over a week in FL with our parents celebrating Christmas and enjoying the warm weather. I'm still a little foggy on why we stay in New England...only real good reason I can come up with is our parents. Of course, like all good vacations, they must come to and end.

Now that we are home, it's time to start wrapping up as much of the wedding planning as we can. Not that we have a lot left to do, the florist and Tuxes. Sometime next month we get to pick out our food which will allow us to mail out the invitations. Next thing I know I will be sitting on the beach at St. Lucia drinking something with an umbrella while talking to my wife. Kinda a scary though, not the getting married, but what it signifies. I'm that much closer to really having to grow up. I think until you pop out a child, you don't really need to FULLY grow up...once that happens though...time to take charge. Either way, it's going to be a very exciting year.

Here comes the bride...
