2012 was a year that flew by.

Travel

I was able to go on a lot of trips this year.  TPWSNBN and I started out with an anniversary weekend to Williamsburg, Virginia. This place is really special to us, because we love the atmosphere the history and the relaxed feeling we have being there.  We always say we never stay long enough and always vow to stay longer the next time.  May be on of these times we’ll actually plan a longer trip.

 

We then ventured north to New York City for a day trip to meet a group of ladies that have been such an important part of my life for so long.

 

These women have been such an influence, such a positive outlook for me.  Even though the next picture is more like us anyways.

 

Then it was time to get a little crazy.  Lisa and I hopped on a Jet plane and went to the Dominican Republic for a long weekend.

 

 

It was a hilarious and relaxing weekend, and I am so happy that I had Lisa to (take care of me) and share this with.

Then it was off on TPWSNBN and my long vacation… London Calling…

We spent the week in London, falling in love with everything about it.  We took a day trip to Paris, and while we were more impressed with London the trip was amazing.

 

 

 

Needless to say this year was my year of travel.

Graduate School 

I went back to school in the summer and began studying for certification exams.  This was something I hadn’t done in 5 years.  I relearned math.

 

I got into Grad School and I start January 22.

Final Thoughts

This year was a good one.  I didn’t make goal weight.  I didn’t get published.  Whatever.  I lived.  Look at this post.

I can’t wait for 2013.
