2010

I have seen a lot of bloggers either do this or a resolution post. Seeing as I don't make resolutions (largely based on the fact the my record for keeping a resolution stands at about 3 days) and that New Years Eve is tomorrow (!), I thought it would be fun to take this route and show you some of my favourite 2010 memories.

Christmas!

I hope all of you had an awesome Christmas!

We had a very busy but fun Christmas weekend filled 3 full days of visiting and socializing. Unfortunately because I was so busy I don't have any pictures.

Santa was also very good.

I got C this guy

which I know you already knew, but I can't help posting pictures of his adorable face. Here's one more for good measure


My wonderful fiance spoiled me again this year. I got

Blue Uggs which I saw for the first time in Buffalo because the cheerleaders were wearing them. I mentioned to C that I liked them and he started the ball rolling on getting them for me that night. Love them.

Red Hunter Wellies which I have wanted for a while now. I'm actually very excited for rain so that I can wear them.

I also got a Costco membership which is a practical gift based on the amount of money I spend a year getting pictures printed. I also figure we can now start buying our groceries there and start saving some money for that wedding that isn't getting any further away.

My favourite gift this year actually wasn't given to me or by me.

My immediate family does a secret Santa every year to save money. This year my brother got my sister and shortly after we drew names I heard that Backstreet boys were coming to Toronto with New Kids on the Block. My sister was a HUGE NKOTB fan and I'm not going to lie, I was obsesses with BSB. When I heard that they were coming I did some recon to find out who had my sisters name and asked them if they were willing to buy the ticket for her as her gift and I would buy my own. That's what we did, and let me tell you it was torture keeping it a secret for over a month. Three of my good friends from highschool are also going with us so I had to recruit them to not put it on facebook and help me keep it a secret. We were successful and when my sister finally got to open the ticket on boxing day she completely freaked out, as expected. I have her reaction on video but I'm not going to embarrass her by putting it on here. For those of you who have me on facebook, expect to see it shortly.

I also did some boxing day shopping and spoiled myself. The deals were not as good as they were on Black Friday in the states but I still managed to spend a fortune by picking up


I would say I was pretty successful!

How was Christmas for everyone else? I would love to hear what Santa brought!
