A new year.... again

So it seems that every year around January or February I have a renewed interest in blogging. You will notice my last post in Jan 2008... here we are in Jan 2011 and I'm ready to blog again. The sad part is, the last three years have been incredibly eventful and I didn't write about them at all. Maybe a short paragraph to get you up to speed:
2008- Got married
2009- Had a beautiful baby girl
2010- Went back to work; Louis had spine surgery; Bought a house... in Colorado

So, as you can see, we still have some exciting times ahead that should make for some good material. As I prepare to leave Southern California- trading my ocean views for snowy (sometimes) mountain views, I have waves of sadness mixed with the waves of happiness. I have had a wonderful 10 years here and it is hard to believe how much has happened in this past decade.

I've always had a bit of an adventure streak in me so here we go again... off to explore new pastures. We look at it this way, by leaving california we will be able to save so much more money then we can living in CA that we can visit the beach several times a year... So anything that enables me to vacation more I'm totally up for. Colorado here we come!
