The answer: time flies!
And here is a rundown of what has kept me busy enough to make yesterday feel like it was just before Christmas!
Christmas time is always busy and this year was no exception - buying and wrapping presents (which this year consisted of buying online and sending to my house since I no longer have my Jetta Baby), going home for all of the festivities and spending time with my family - days mold together and all of the sudden it is time to head back to Hoboken for New Year's Eve!
Then - after the New Year, Patrick, Karen, Tom and I made the trip to Penn State to celebrate Regina's 21st birthday! It was so much fun and we all had a great time pretending we were in college again!
As we moved into February - my roommates and I literally moved around the corner to a new building. Let's just leave at instances like this and guests like these got a pretty old and we had to make a move. We now comfortably live in a great building with a doorman (loved by Mama Noons), a gym and sun deck!
At the end of the month, I turned the big 2-5 and my life as we know it - got better. I love birthdays and this year has been going well so far!
March included a trip home to Philadelphia and a trip to California for work. Then it was time for our Housewarming Party as we were settling into our new apartment nicely.
With April came Easter in Philadelphia, Tom's 25th birthday, my grandparents' anniversary and last but not not least, a trip to Orlando, Florida with Tom, his brother and a few friends! It was so much fun - from Sea World to Hollywood Studios, EPCOT and days by the pool - the five of us enjoyed every minute!
May flew by with one of my first paid Good Afternoonan catering gigs - a Mother's Day lunch! followed by a weekend with my family in Hoboken! Then it was time for a friend of mine at work to get married over the Memorial Day Weekend! It was a beautiful wedding with great food, tons of dancing and excitement for the newly weds!
30th birthday parties, my brother Sean's graduation from 8th grade, and a trip to Fort Lauderdale with Regina made June seem to come and go with a blink of an eye. More details and photos about the Fort Lauderdale trip to come as it has provided memories for a lifetime.
As if June couldn't have moved any faster - July was moving at warp speed as well! Tom's sister had her baby shower at the beginning of the month, followed by a family wedding mid-month, a trip to the beach with my family right after the wedding, a trip to Atlantic City another weekend followed by our first college friends' wedding in Newport, RI. Throw in both of my brothers' birthdays in July as well and what do you know - it is already August.
And at the mid-mark of this month - I can report that the first weekend in August was the first one I spent in Hoboken since Memorial Day (it was so glorious to wake up at whatever time I wanted on a Saturday!!) and then last weekend my Mom, Victoria and Sean visited Hoboken! We went out to dinner and saw Mary Poppins on Broadway - it was awesome! Then - to our surprise, Tom's sister had her baby on Saturday night and we went out to Long Island to meet little Kylie on Sunday afternoon! She is so tiny and perfect and we love her so much already!
I look forward to regular updates again and be sure to check back soon!
