A lot has happened in my life since I started my blog one year ago, and I am so glad I started this blog so I was able to document all the events. Here’s a recap…
June 2011
I posted this video. I still can’t watch the video without laughing. I have no idea why it only has 11,000 views. I would have thought it would have gone viral by now!
July 2011
Mallory and I took a much needed vacation down to Florida, and we met my mom, sister and mom’s friend Nikki down there. This picture is when we went parasailing….it was so fun!!
August 2011
I was living in Ireland and this picture I was in Galway, Ireland with my friend Sarah. This was at the Cliffs of Mohr. Beautiful!
September 2011
I traveled to Turkey for work, and while I was there I got to go on a cruise down the coast of the Black Sea. I loved it there. I can’t wait to go back!
October 2011
I said my good byes to Ireland in October. I really loved living there. I learned so much and wish it hadn’t come to an end so soon.
November 2011
I went Black Friday shopping with my cousin, Stephen and my sister. While I was in the moment, I regretted going, but once I got home and realized all the good deals I got, I was glad I went!
December 2011
A lot happened in December! I co-emceed the Kentucky Governor’s Inaugeration. It was so cool! Mixing politics with TV…perfect for me!
My Irish friend Sarah was in Kentucky and neither of us had been to Vegas, so we took a quick trip, and I got to see my friend Zoe while I was there too.
Probably the most exciting thing that happened in December was Henna’s birthday! I went with my sister to her boyfriend’s house to see the puppies that were just born a couple hours before, with no intention of picking a puppy out. But once I saw Miss Henna, I claimed her and made up my mind right then and there!
January 2012
Apparently all I did in January was watch YouTube videos, but that actually sounds about right. Now at 21 million views, this video caught my attention, and apparently it did for lots of others too. Do these types of videos really speak to people? If you weren’t a Christian and you saw this, would it change you mind about Christians?
February 2012
In February my bestie Liz and I went to DC to visit our dear friend Heather and her hubby Dustin, and we got to spend some time with Liz’s boo, Luke, while he is doing his 1 year assignment of following around Barack Obama….tough life, huh?
Luke did get us into the Whitehouse so we could see the President land on the Whitehouse lawn.
My favorite part was being in the press conference room, so I had to take pictures. But please don’t judge my appearance, this is at like 1:30 a.m.!
March 2012
Miss Henna Sue was able to come home with me. She is so tiny in this picture!
April 2012
Henna joined the social media world and got a Twitter account.
May 2012
My May was basically consumed with Christian Grey’s world. Which was fine by me!
June 2012
Henna Sue is growing up!
Here’s to another year of fun filled activities to share with you again this time next year!
XOXO,
Al
