2011 in Review

What a year it has been. Oh 2011, I will be so very glad to see you go!

I rang in the new year with my new roommate after moving into a gorgeous house in Charlotte, NC.

Piper had a second best friend with her dog Charley and we saw some more snow!

February came along and I started a small dog group on Meetup.com which lead to meeting lots of amazing people I still call my close friends. My husband also came for a visit after being separated for 5 months.

March was a roller coaster as another visit lead us to decide divorce was what we had to do. I celebrated my 26th birthday with my awesome friend Kate (Every Mile A Memory) at Cirque and a week later, my divorce was finalized. March also marked the one year anniversary of my miscarriage.

April was something to look forward to as I came home for a mini divorce party AND went on my first cruise ever, The VH1 Best Cruise Ever. I also started a new job at a marketing company as a scheduling coordinator.

In May, we celebrated Piper's first birthday with the group and a massive storm came through and a tree fell on our house :(

In June, I made a special visit to MD/DC/VA to visit friends and attend the US Open, which was on my bucket list!

In August, a special *secret* (at the time) visitor came to Charlotte and I decided my time in North Carolina was coming to an end. I moved out of the house and in with friends for a couple weeks.

September brought a special wedding where I served as MOH for Reina from Semper Gumby. I also spent the 9.11 anniversary in Washington, DC. Several days later, after almost exactly a year in the Queen City, I moved back to Orlando, which was a tough but necessary decision. I was able to continue working for my company in Charlotte, on a fluctuating PT/FT basis.

In October, we enjoyed visiting the pumpkin patch and carving a pumpkin and I was lucky enough to go to Cabo San Lucas for a video shoot for Barcelo Resorts!

November brought one of my favorites to Orlando, The Greek Fest!

December was busier than ever with a quick couples weekend in Tampa with friends Kate & Bryan, Christmas, AND J and his sisters birthday.

What a year it has been. I'll be posting tomorrow on my reflections of 2011 and my hopes for 2012. Hope you enjoyed the pictures!!! :)
