2009 a year in Review

Poured myself a glass of champagne (leftover from last night) and decided to put together a little review of 2009 in pictures. I thought last year was an amazing year even with the trials and tribulations ( ie..getting laid off unexpectedly). I really enjoyed this past year and look forward to 2010 being just as wonderful. So without further a do please enjoy the highlights of last year!
