My 2008 Top Tens....
A few days ago there was a prompt for writers block that had the top 10 lists ...
My family had been talking about all the milestones that were reached this year. Really the list started the beginning of last December so I'm going to do a 13 month Top 10 list. Well here's my top 10 list...
10. Getting a 4.0 GPA in 2 of my classes my final semester. I hadn't done that since junior college and was very proud. also that the lowest grade I had that semester was a 3.6 and I'd taken an insane classload.
9. Graduating with my Bachelors degree.
8. I got accepted to Graduate School.
7. Trent and I celebrated our second anniversary of dating.
6. My dad reached his 50th birthday.
5. My dog reached her 10th birthday.
4. My parents have been married for 25 years.
3. I've started a new "business" of housesitting and doing quite well at it.
2. My brother graduated with his Bachelors.
And Finally....
1. Trent and my wedding engagement...
And it's not a top 10 list but here's my top 5 list of my favorite reactions to the news of the engagement:
5. From Teresa ( the sister that originally introduced us) " I knew it I knew it I knew it I told you! I cried when he told me"
4. I think from their grandmother ... that I'm "an angel for saying yes"
3. From Sam : "SQUEAL!!! Ah!! I'm so excited for you!"
2. From Megan (the other sister) via text: "Congratulations future SIL! :)"
and most of all,,,
1. From my little cousin Eva, after my aunt explained that being engaged meant that we were going to get married, "Yay! I just KNEW they would!" and then she turned back to trying to take a picture of the dog.
enough top lists for now. Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays!
