The last 15 years.....

Ok, so we were sitting outside talking about where we were over New Year's since we met and we came up with them....it wasn't too hard, but it's so funny to look back and remember where you were, what you were doing and the hopes and dreams you had for the coming year!
1995 - I had just arrived in Sasebo, Japan (had seen Damon but not met him yet)
1996 - Damon, Josh and I went to Las Vegas on a whim, we wanted to see a hotel blown up, but they ended up doing it early and we missed it. Went with our CRAZY neighbors and ended up having to drive back at like 2 a.m. because all the hotels were booked up. I had to stand outside the casinos with Josh since I wasn't old enough to get in!
1997 - 119A Wonju Circle, Camp Pendleton CA (our 2nd base housing)
1998 - Spent the holidays at Damon's mom and dads in Lodi, CA
1999 - Mom came to visit while Damon was on deployment, I think I went to bed early. Jaden was just a couple
months old. Damon came home on January 8th, 2000.
2000 - 281 Himmer St, Camp Pendleton, CA (our 3rd base housing). This is the year I met Sasha. WOW! 10 years!
2001 - 281 Himmer St, Camp Pendleton, CA
2002 - Went to the snow in the mountains and the beach the same day...We lived on Cuyamaca. This would be our last New Year's in California!
2003 - Annandale, VA. Had people over and played board games....
2004 - I think this is the year we spent the holidays in Illinois....
2005 - Washington DC, went to see the national tree with friends, ate at Hooters. Our last New Years in Virginia!
2006 - I worked at the club that night, Damon went home early cuz he wasn't feeling well, still a fun night! Our first New Year's in Florida!
2007 - I was pregnant with the twins, we went to bed early.....
2008 - Mt. Carmel, IL. All of us were home for the first time in 4 years. Played Rock Band and cards and drank with my brothers and sister! We had a blast!
2009 - UGH....little did we know that 2010 was to be a year that we'd rather forget! Damon was sick in bed, Thomas was over lighting fireworks and I watched SVU all day!
2010 - Played Rock Band and Wii with Emmy, danced and played cards, snacked and had some wine, sat out on our porch listening to fireworks and wondering what 2011 will bring us! I'm blessed that my family is together and my best friend is here with me!
