2009 in Review

Top 10 2009 Sylvia Events-

10. We potty trained Dallin and got rid of the Binkie
9. Andy got laid off from the Utah Blaze, and then hired with REAL Salt Lake, then laid off again, and finally re-hired as a full time salaried position. Phew.
8. We welcomed a new nephew, Grey in February and a new neice, Ellie on Christmas Eve
7. Dallin started pre-school and LOVES EVERY MINUTE
6. We celebrated 5 years of Bliss in July
5. Andy ventured out on many "guys sports trips"
4. Ashley transferred to the new Primary Children's Outpatient Clinic and went part time
3. Andy graduated from the University of Utah
2. We added a new sister in law, Erika who married Andy's youngest brother Gregg

And the #1 thing for 2009 is....

1. CLAIRE ALDINE SYLVIA (the cutest, sweetest, giggliest, wiggliest, smiliest,
happiest thing ever) was born

Okay it didnt turn out as exciting as it was in my mind. It was hard to narrow it down to 10 things.. but oh well you get the idea. I am excited to see what 2010 will bring for our family. Now that I am not pregnant we are hoping to do more adventurous things including skiing/snowboarding and teaching Dallin to ski as well. We plan to take many hikes with the kids when the weather warms up and finally get to head out into the woods for some camping trips. We are planning a big trip back east to Boston and Cape Cod in July, and as always we are looking for different options for Andy to move up in his career. This will be the first year in our marriage where Andy is not going to school, and I am not working full time. I hope this means more quality family time for us to enjoy being The Sylvia's.

Happy New Year Everyone!
