Another Decade is over

It's so hard to believe that another decade is over. Seems like only yesterday I was starting the new decade/millennium as a newlywed in a new state with a new job in a new apartment with crazy landlords and here we are today, married for 10 1/2 years, in a home we've owned for just over 2 years with two boys and two dogs.

Here are some memorable moments from the last decade:

2000

Living in Garfield and then Dumont NJ working at a bank, Kmart and finally at a cemetery. Enjoy our first year of marriage.

2001

Started out the year living in Dumont, NJ, moved to Lebanon, PA in march. Worked at Dollar General and then Kmart. Discovered in November I was pregnant with our first baby.

2002

Still living in Lebanon, working at Kmart and on Jan 3 finding out I miscarried our first baby. Kmart declared bankruptcy and we weren't sure either of us would have jobs by the end of the year.

2003

Found out we were pregnant right after the stroke of midnight, bought our first home, had our son in August and started working part-time.

2004

Enjoyed our son's first birthday and discovered on New Year's Eve that we were expecting again (I couldn't wait to test until the New Year).

2005

Delivered our second son in August and celebrated our son's second birthday.

2006

Enjoyed a first and third birthday party.

2007

Enjoyed our sons' second and fourth birthdays, D lost his job, found a new job within two weeks and bought our second home and sold our first and became a SAHM

2008

We settled into our new home closer to family. Enjoyed our sons' third and fifth birthday, shuttled the boys back and forth to preschool. Started working part-time from home and selling Avon.

2009

Celebrated 10 years of marriage, enjoyed our sons' fourth and sixth birthday, sent our firstborn to kindgarten, started working full time from home while also selling Avon.

Apparently we don't live very exciting lives from these little blurbs but it seems that there is almost never a dull moment in our lives. We enjoy our family time, take day trips to visit local attractions and even had our first camping trip as a family this year.

I'm excited to see what the new decade will bring.
