Anyway, I made this photo post in my Livejournal last night and decided to copy it to here. It's basically just a picture dump from the last year. I also need to do a recap of any progress I've made in my list (I don't even remember if I have.. I'll have to skim over it to see!). If so, I'll make a separate post for it. This deserves its own!
If you missed any of these events, I provided links back to the posts that I wrote about them. :)

And I know getting professional pictures done with your friends is really cheesy, but a couple weeks ago when Goldie & I were at the mall, Sears had this little event going on and you got to spin a wheel and whatever you landed on was what you got. Well, we both landed on a free 10x13 premium portrait so we decided to get pictures of the 3 of us done. I'm going to use my coupon to get a new family portrait of me, Keith & Aubrey. I also signed up for their portrait club and any time I decide to go in and get her pictures taken, I can get a free 8x10 and not even have to buy anything else. Isn't that amazing? I could go in every single day for the next YEAR and get a free 8x10. So of course, the possibilities are endless. If Keith thinks our house is a "shrine to Aubrey" now, he hasn't seen ANYTHING yet! ;) I also want to get pictures of just me & Aubrey (wearing her 'Mommy Loves Me' shirt, obviously!) and just Keith & Aubrey (in what else but her 'My Daddy Is My Prince' shirt!)
But anyway, these are the pictures we decided on:
This was the 8x10 I chose
This was the 10x13 Goldie got.
But enough about that, I hope you all have a wonderful, SAFE New Years Eve! I will see you in 2011! :)
