We went to Colorado, Mexico, Las Vegas, and on our first backpacking trip.
Nathan went to Miami, L.A., and Bangalore, India on work trips. He also flew out to Cali to drive home with Kevin in January earlier this year.
I did my annual ‘camping’ trip with the girls and Jessica and I visited NYC for the first time.
In July we started attending River Valley Church with Polly. It’s a large church but it feels right. In September we joined our first small group and met several other young married couple’s. We’ve made quite a few friends and look forward to continuing that friendship and joining another small group come February.
2009 was our first full year without Elliott. We are learning we can survive without him though it’s not easy.
We’re coming up on year 4 of marriage next week and I can honestly say it’s been the best 4 years of my life. I never imagined I could love anyone as much as I love Nathan. I am so grateful for him and our life.
I’ve also discovered a whole new layer of friendship with Polly. She’s an amazing chica and I am so thankful for our deepening friendship and the time we spend together. I know Nathan has really enjoyed spending time with her as well.
For 2010 we have plans to visit Puerto Rico and Julie and Adam in Colorado. We’re hoping to mix in a trip to D.C./Philly to visit Timm/Manju and Kristie/Jonathan. In December of 2010 we’re hoping to do an international trip for our 5 year anniversary! More on that to come in later months…
Anywho, we wish all of you a wonderfully Merry Christmas and an amazingly Happy New Year! We look forward to hearing about what’s going on in your lives as well.
Love always,
Amy
On a brighter note my Environmental Science grade was finally posted and I got an A! This was a class I really struggled with and I am so happy I made it through with an A.
