I was finishing my last day of work as Kalena DeFord.
I can't believe a year has gone by since Carl and I were married! It has been an amazing year! A busy and amazing year.
Carl is finishing up school and I am still working at Jamie Rodrigues State Farm. We have had many gatherings at our house throughout the year. I just finished painting and pulling down the last of the tape a month ago! Carl and I are so thankful for all the gifts we received at our wedding. They really helped to finish the house off! I suck at Thank you cards and I didn't reach my goal of sending all of them off! I am so sorry! I really tried!
I am MUCH better at hosting. This year (as in 2008) I have hosted the following at our home:
New Year's Eve Party
Boy's WEEKEND!
Britney's 21st B-Day
Kelly's Baby Shower
Ben's 21st last minute partay
Evan's Graduation Party
Sunday Funday (our SS class party complete with Pirate Theme)
Valentine's Party (can you tell these aren't in order)
Easter with both parents
Carl's Birthday Gathering
Washer Party
oh and don't forget the weekly "Cookie Night" event (7 years strong baby!)
Needless to say I have used and cherished almost every special dish we received at our wedding. The only thing I was unable to breakout was our cool Christmas dishes. Someday. Someday.
Wow a ton has happened! And that's just in the last 5 months! I can't wait to see what the years ahead have in store for Carl and me!
Don't worry...Whatever happens we'll have a party!
