sounds weird to say...and this will be the year that our 10 year HS reunion is...it's hard to believe the time has gone so fast!

4. my favorite kind of shoe? flip flops...hands down...I own more pair then I care to admit :)

8. Penguins are my favorite animal...although I am partial to black cats :)
9. Fall is my favorite season
10. I love Christmas, and I wish it could be all year long!
11. every Christmas eve, my family watches It's a Wonderful Life...and then I watch A Christmas Story as much as I can during the 24-hour marathon on TBS...basically any holiday movie is okay by me!
12. in the past 5 years, I've been to over 30 weddings...and been in 4 of them...and been Maid of Honor twice

22. my favorite color is purple...but I love all colors, and color combinations...
23. I love to plan parties, especially the details...plates, favors, decorations...
24. my favorite saturday morning activity? kickboxing class...hi-ya!
25. there is nothing in the world I love to eat more, then pizza from Alfonsos, in Hillsborough, NJ...if they could cater my wedding with pizza, I'd do it :p

L & B's annual joint birthday celebration...year 5!
so it came and went again...even though I love winter and all the holidays that come along with it- my birthday included...I always wish it wouldn't fly by so fast. This year was no different, but we still had just as much fun :)
we had a pretty big group out for dinner at the Burger Abbey...and then were officially the first people at Ropewalk...if getting old means you go out early, but get the only booth in the bar...so be it :)
the adorable newlyweds :) who traveled all the way from NJ for the party!
the guests of honor :p
the girls who make working at Panera fun :)
me and Sarah
and the parents-to-be, Mary and Mikey :)
another good start to the year!
