2010 will go down as one of the best years ever, far exceeding 2008 and 2009 in terms of overall happiness and significant events. What started as a hard slog with Michelle working at Chase, eBay’s stock price significantly lower than acceptable and an IT band injury ended up with many long term wins and major life changing events. Almost everything should be in a previous blog post. Here’s a summary, in no particular order:
BabyMac - our first child is due in June! Working names are BabyMac, Rory and Felicity. Real names will be withheld until its birthday.
Taylor Gwen McCamey - Matt and Kath had their first child Taylor Gwen McCamey on December 21!
Michelle left Chase - this was sometime around summer, best thing ever to reduce stress.
Park City and Seattle marathons - long term goal complete, twice! Best time was Seattle @ 3.50 running the whole way with David
St George, State Capitol and Snow Canyon half marathons - these half marathons are also a good excuse to travel. Best time 1.34 at Snow Canyon.
Fast internet - it’s cheaper and >10x faster than our last internet provider. Netflix works as advertised!
Michelle to Australia/Oprah - Michelle ‘accidentally’ won tickets to see Oprah in Sydney, ‘i didn’t mean to win’ i think she said. When there spent a lot of time with family and returns with a diamond necklace and the experience of a lifetime.
London and Dublin - way back in February, lots of Guinness, rain and UK museums. I love London.
Hoppers - bought our first hopper pan since moving to the USA (only took us 5 years). This turned into our christmas dinner. Yum.
Singing lessons - Michelle, having previously stopped singing lessons because as the teacher said ‘you’re too good, i have nothing left to teach you’, started up again and is wowing the crowds with her renditions of ‘Nymphs and Shepards’.
Jane Eyre - her first adult play! She performed to sold out houses at the Rose Wagner theatre in downtown SLC, the place to see theatre.
Short Shorts - her 2nd adult play, this one included swearing, illegal immigration and a desire to break down the 4th wall.
Fun New Years Eve too, dinner with friends then 'Attack of the 50 Foot Woman' and 15 year old scotch. 2011 looks to be even bigger than 2010, which is scary and exciting. Can't wait.
