Our 2009 started with the celebrating of Aaron's birthday in January, and then shortly after, selling our house in one full day of being on the market!
We moved in with Papa and Kay Kay March 5th in an effort to try and figure our what we wanted to do--house wise. The sell of the house in a day was actually a blessing in disguise because in April, Aaron received an unexpected promotion, which required us to live 30 miles from his office. My parents are 26 miles. I would say that was just about perfect!
In April, we took a little trip to Atlanta. We had fun visiting the Georgia Aquarium, Zoo Atlanta and a Braves game, oh, and lots of shopping, due to the fact that somehow Kenadie's clothes got left behind? We'll just leave it at that :)
Kenadie and I enjoyed attending our Mommy and Me class every Tuesday a.m. 
In the summer, we enjoyed our pet turtle, "turtle" for a couple of weeks. We checked on him daily, and after NEVER seeing him eat anything we gave him, we decided to let "turtle" go.
In June, we took another quick road trip to Omaha, NB to see our Eagles at the College World Series. This is where Kenadie would discover frozen lemonade :)
In July, we went on our annual beach trip to Destin with my family. This was also the same time that I discovered Kenadie's hair was actually long enough for a ponytail, therefore meaning her bow would stay put now :) July was a big month for milestones, because this is also when Kenadie's talking seemed to take off. She hasn't slowed down since! One things for sure, I ALWAYS have someone ready to talk to :) and what a sweet little voice she has that I never get tired of hearing :)
The bow even survives in the swimming pool :) "I swimming, I swimming", as Kenadie was telling me and everyone else in the pool.
God blessed my brother and his wife with a precious, healthy baby boy in October. Shortly after baby Henry was born, we said goodbye to Wes, Joy, Hayden and Henry as they made the move to North Carolina--hoping this is only temporary and that Wes gets transferred back ASAP!
I guess the latest news would be that we recently bought a house. We are excited about it and look forward to making many memories here. We have truly enjoyed the 10 months spent with Papa and Kay Kay. I am so glad, as are they, trust me, that they have been such a part of seeing Kenadie grow and change so much this year! I'm sure many tears from my mother and I will be shed as our "move" approaches :( I could make a whole post on "How to successfully live with your parents." Ha ha--seriously though--It's been GREAT Mom and Dad! Thanks for having us! We've enjoyed every minute :) Guess it's time for me to get back to reality though :) It's been fun!Looking forward to a great 2010! Happy New year everyone!!!
