Best of 2009: Challenge

December 9 Challenge. Something that really made you grow this year. That made you go to your edge and then some. What made it the best challenge of the year for you?

Best trip of 2009

I love the blog challenge from Gwen Bell to blog about your “bests” of 2009. I’m a little late in starting the new blog post for each day in December but I’m going to try to catch up and keep going with the new ones.

Are we crazy? Probably. Are we madly looking forward to it. Oh yeah!! We have been counting down the months, then weeks and finally the days until we leave. It will be [...]

On Saturday, Shannon and I met at Third Street Stuff to work on putting together a web [...]
