Looking back at the last decade – Part I

Given that this is the first full week of the new year and decade, I’ve been thinking about what happened in the last.  So many big milestones and changes! I wonder if the next decade will bring as many or if that’s just the case when you’re young.

In 2000, I graduated from high school and then started college in the Fall.

In 2001 and 2002, I completed my first and second years of college. And in 2003, I studied in Madrid for a semester. I added many pins to my virtual map traveling during those 4 months- France, Portugal, Monaco, Italy, Malta, Tunisia, Switzerland, and the Canary Islands.

At the end of 2003, the husband (then boyfriend) and I moved in together and finished our senior years. In 2004, I graduated college, started my first job, and we adopted Elmo and Zoe. Weren’t they adorable as kittens?

Stay tuned for the second half of the decade…
