Onto a happier note.. the Year in Review. What personal moments in 2004 will we look back on with fond memories?

Original post by FeliciaDA

I'll start:

For many of us 2004 brides, I'm sure we'll say our wedding day(s)

July 25 2004, our wedding, was the very best day of my life in all my 30something years

I also reflect on 2004 as a year where I made some incredible friends through this website Folks who I love and consider REAL friends even outside of the internet.. Not to mention so many other folks who feel like friends, and who I truly enjoy chatting with day in and day out.

Despite our differences sometimes, I truly enjoy our little LIW world

ETA: the good health of my family and friends, and luckily no real personal tragedies .. after a few bad years, I am VERY thankful for these things !

MY WEDDING
Interesting that i was just talking about this with a great LIW friend
but my wedding was more than marrying the best person i know.
It brought together my entire family.



That's how I feel about my wedding--I have some OOT family I rarely see & it was great to see everyone together.

Same thing with my shower.

My other highlight was my HM.

Other than that, this year has been stressful, with all the planning, work problems, 2 family members not to each other, my apt being broken into, my apt building being on fire, having to move unexpectedly & Dh's grandmotehr beign diagnosed with Alzheimer's, moving to a nursing home & not being able to attend our wedding.

ok, sorry, I am ruining the spirit of thread.



ETA: hoping for good things in 2005! happy New Year!

I am grateful this year for:

having a such a wonderful husband.

having a job.


meeting everyone here on liw even though i haven't met anyone in person yet i love talking to you all i feel like i made friends on here,i hope the feelings are mutual.


the one sad thing i have to say about this year is losing my grandmother who passed in may from altzeimers disease .


hopefully to get a house in 2005


and hopefully getting pregnant by the end of the year if i can get my thyroid under control.

god bless you all and I hope for all of the best for everyone on liw.


and I am thankful for my family and friends I love you all and thank you for being there for me when i needed you all.

Obviously my wedding takes the cake! I love my DH more than I can even believe is possible.

My sister was really sick a couple of times this year (she had two brain hemorages), which was terrible for me and my family, but the fact that she is feeling so much better now makes me so happy. She's my best friend and it killed me to see her so sick.

honestly, I wont look back on it with fond memories, this year brought three hurricanes, hurricane damage, a pipe burst, flooded car (not engine but car itself),4 miscarriages....man I can't wait until 2005 comes, it can't be much worse.

Our marriage of course! What a great day.

The HM in Hawaii - just loved it!

Finding out we were going to be parents and then last week finding out we are having... a boy.

The phone call three days before Christmas saying I won $10,000 from a website - what a shock! And much needed with the baby on the way.

DH got his dream job and he actually loves going to work. And I'm so proud of him!

Everyone we love is healthy and happy - nothing is better than that.

I know 2005 promises to be full of new surprises and challenges and I can't wait. I hope everyone has a wonderful year!!!
