Top 10 of 2010

2010 is officially on its way out the door. I have to say, this year wasn't anywhere near as bad as 2009, 2008 and especially 2007. I was trying to design my super cute Christmas cards online the other day and it was about my top 10 moments of 2010. After trying every memory-stimulating technique known to man, I finally came up with 10 and I realized that this year was actually a pretty fanfreakingtastic year for me. And you know me... I'm gonna share.

1. No question about my number one moment of 2010- Jordan and I got hitched! We spent a year and half planning it and it took half a day to come and go. It was a beautiful wedding and it was small- the way I wanted it. I'm used to having a HUGE family and having people there that just take up space and eat the food just isn't my thing.
2. Big moment number 2- The Honeymoon!!! Many of you might be thinking this should be under the same listing as the wedding. Nope!!! 10 days in paradise deserve it's own listing! Isla Mujeres is officially my go-to vacation spot. The hotel was amazing, the island was beautiful and I had the best time of my life! I can't wait to go back!
3. Papa Ford and Stephen's motorcycle trip to Knoxville is a big one for me! We went to a rally in Chattanooga, the Jack Daniels Distillery and rode the Dragon's Tail in Gatlinburg. My butt has never been so sore but it was SO worth it! And these are two of my most favorite men in my life so it couldn't have been a better week!
4. Elizabeth is turning five this year, and that's going to be a big one! We're having the party at Chuck E Cheese's in two weeks and she's super pumped! Her mom is coming, which I'm less than excited about, but it's for Elizabeth and she almost never has both parents in the same place. It's a big year for her so why not...
5. My big brother finally married Emily! That was an awesome wedding!! I've never cried at a wedding before, not even my own. I boohooed my little heart out. My brother and I are much closer than most siblings and I've never trusted girls to treat him right because they never have. I'm glad Emily proved me wrong on that note, I was a heartbeat away from locking him in a box before she came along.
6. Our St. Patty's Day party!!! This is officially an annual thing now! It was awesome, I cooked a bunch of traditional Irish food, including homemade Irish Cream!! The green beer idea sorta fizzled, note to self- liquid drop food coloring, NOT gel. Brynn and I invented "champ-pong" because the idea of beer at this point was less than appetizing. It was a blast!
7. Jordan and Elizabeth got to take an impromptu trip to Wichita Falls, TX to see his grandmother and some of his family. He loves all of his family, but he really has a special bond with Grandma Egg and she couldn't make it to the wedding. He had a great time and I'm glad that he got the chance to go, one of those things that makes my heart smile.
8. Jordan went to California for the first time ever! I'd been several times in my life and always took that for granted. He didn't, he was STOKED about the trip! He taught me to appreciate the little things.
9. I made a bunch of new friends this year! We've already made tons of good memories and there are still many more to come!
10. Umm... who says I need 10?? I still have 31 days left of the year, something big and exciting is bound to happen!!

I've already got boo coos of stuff planned for 2011 that I'm already looking forward to, but we'll come back to that in about a year or so! I'm not a superstitious person, but I don't want to jinx anything! If all goes as planned, 2011 will have me bouncing off the walls! (More so than usual, anyway...)
