June 2009 -
Casey moved to Nashville - Ok so I was really worried about this...There was a great possibility that one of us would not survive the summer...But things really could not have been better. Although he is still living in the dinning room of my 800 sq.ft. apartment. It has been great having him around
Monica moved to Nashville - My sorority sister from UNL moved to Nashville in June as well to start a pharmacy program at Vanderbilt, it has been so nice to have another Nebraska girl around!
July 2009 -
Dad stopped by for a visit - I love it when my family comes out to visit...Although he had to work business in, it was still awesome to spend the time playing put put and enjoying dad and brother time.
There were also a couple great canoe trips through out the summer too!
Eve of Janus - (Although I can't remember if this was in July or August) This was a great event and all of the Tri Delta Alumnae in Nashville that participated did a phenomenal job!
August 2009 -
I got a blackberry - Yep, I am now addicted...was it a good decision...sometimes yes, sometimes no...
18th Friendaversary - So Allison and I decided to start celebrating how many years we have been friends...as of August 2009 it was 18, so we decided a weekend trip to Chattanooga would be a good celebration!
We went to the aquarium...
We saw Rock City...
And had an absolute ball!!!
Casey's 25th - Happy Birthday Casey! We went out and had a great time!!!
Tri Delta Young Alum - Our Tri Delta Young Alum Happy Hours are so much fun, I love those girls and don't know what I would do with out them. They were key in helping me though my transition to Nashville. I just hope by doing this once a month that we can help other girls who need a solid group of friends. I never believed it when I was told by some alumnae that they made better friends in their years as an alum than they did in college...but it is so so true! (I love you college friends, but I have made fantastic friends here too)
September 2009 -
The busy season - It is kind of like the monsoon season, but things just start to get CRAZY at work...but I love it...I love the challenge of working with so many clients on different mailings. It really pushes me to be a better Account Manager.
Labor Day weekend - Casey and I headed on a 12 hour drive to Lincoln, Nebraska for a long weekend. I took a couple of extra days off work so I could spend more time with friends and Family. Mom and Dad drove in from Colorado too. We went to the Nebraska State Fair, and ate tons of fried fair food. We also made it to the first football game of the season! Nebraska vs. LA - Lafayette (I think), we won :). GO BIG RED! We went up to Turkey Creek and spent a couple days with the whole extended family, I couldn't believe it had been 2 years since I'd seen most of them. I even got to squeeze in some time with a couple of friends from college...Man I miss them so much!
Nashvillians for Nebraska (Nashville Huskers)- Just because I didn't have enough on my plate with work, and Tri Delta, and my brother living with me...I thought I needed to start the Nashvillians for Nebraska group...I was just so tired of watching Nebraska games all by myself. I knew there were Nebraska fans around, so why not start a watch party... It would be easy and not take up a lot of time, right?! WRONG! But I LOVE it!
Our first game was the VA Tech game, I was crossing my fingers and hoping for maybe 20 people to show up...That is what I told the bar should be there...To my shock and amazement more than 80 people showed up. It was amazing!
By the end of the season I had over 200 people on my e-mailing list. I was so proud of what I had accomplished. It was such a challenge, the bar was not the best to deal with and caused me more headaches, there were some close losses through out the season, but I met some amazing people..
.
If you know of a good sports bar in Nashville that will show the Nebraska games with sound every week, let me know! We average about 50 people a week we have had up to 100.

Thanksgiving - Mom and Dad drove out to Tennessee in their new car, and we had a PERFECT Thanksgiving. I could not have asked for a better one. We cooked and just had an amazing time. I love having Mom and Dad around! Casey went back to Colorado with Mom and Dad, so I had some time to my self... I was reminded about how much I like to live alone...
(Of course we had to go watch the Nebraska vs. Colorado game together)
December 2009 -
A couple more football games, and yes I was burnt out...
Christmas Parties - yep I got burnt out on those too...
Christmas - I went home for 10 days at Christmas, it was awesome. Well, except for the part where I was sick with a fever on Christmas eve and Christmas day :(. It was nice to be home. Casey and I came back to Nashville, energized and ready to start the new year....
So that was 2009 in a sloppy nutshell!
