new year, new look, new title, new post . . . finally

First off, let me say that you have all impressed/overwhelmed me with your new year blogging enthusiasm. I can't believe the amounts of writing some of you have under your belt in just this very first month of our new year. I feel the pressure to blog escalate as each of your lovely, charming posts appear in my reader. Have you no sympathy for those of us deflated-from-the-holidays lazies?! Overachievers.

Well, lest you are led to believe that I have no ambition for the new year, I present my 2011 commemorative post.

Let us begin with a quick 2010 at a glance (It was, after all, about as big a year as they come in the Error household). Our top ten in chronological order:

1. January 10- We get our first look at baby Error, and find out It's A BOY!


2. February 11- We beat the valentine crowds and do the "La Caille" fine dining experience. (Yes, food makes the top ten--especially when it's fancy, and especially when you're pregnant.)

3. April 22- Jared graduates with a BS in Exercise Science from BYU! 


4. May 17- At 8 months pregnant and swollen everywhere but my eyelashes, we celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary at the scenic "Roof Restaurant." Perfect place to celebrate: overlooking the place where it all began. Best. Food. Ever. 



5. May 24- Arriving exactly one week later, and exactly 4 weeks early, Sweet Baby Granty J. Error is born. Best day of the year, hands down. Maybe best day ever.


6. And with that early arrival, I complete my first year of teaching. Only a week and a half earlier than planned. Not bad.


7. July 25- Grant receives a name and a blessing.


8. August 2-6- We conquer Disneyland with a 2 1/2 month old.


9. September 7- Jared ROCKS his Dental Admission Test


10. December- Jared gets his first acceptance letter to dental school!

Whew! With a year like that, one might be tempted to sit back and relax a while, but alas, there is no rest for the weary. 2011 promises first steps for Granty, a half marathon for me, and a new white coat for Jared. Stay tuned for more on these stories!

What a busy year at your house. If it makes you feel any better, with this pregnancy I've been about as motivated as a log so you won't feel any need to keep up with me :) I still haven't done a cute 2010 post. One of these days. I'd love to get together soon. What a big goal to run a half marathon. One of these years I'd like to do that too.

"Blog escalate." That was my favorite part. :) Love the new blog and the new post. Where is Jared applying to dental school? Has he applied to OSU? Because there's a good dental school here... Do it! We could be neighbors. :)
