As 2011 draws to a close, what was your favorite event/memory and why?

So let's hear it! :) I know this year WENT BY like an blink of a eye. Way too fast. I do have a favorite memory though - my trip to California with Mike in May. It was a 2 week trip and I was able to explore all beaches in Southern California and visit L.A and Hollywood. It was quite a experience. Such a beautiful state, so I hope to visit the northern part someday! And my other favorite would be, getting a house with 3 acres w/ the boyfriend and we're moving on to the next step. Now, how about you?

I'd say the best memory was our disney world trip this year :)

That was the best trip we've ever had. It was so... magical lol. I will never forget it. we will have more trips to Disney world (like in 25 days lol) but this one will always stand out.

I would have to say being chased across a field by a Confederate officer (who happens to be a very good friend) at a Civil War re-enactment (I was portraying a Yankee Sharpshooter)...I landed on my butt and sat there and giggled like crazy...it was such a blast!

My nephew got married in June, and my oldest niece got married in October. 2011 is the year of weddings in my family!

When you come to Northern California, you better let me know! :)

This year went by so darn fast I can't even think of my favorite thing. Maybe it's my new car...even though I just got that almost two weeks ago. :p

June 4th, my beautiful daughter's wedding day!!

Absolutely! Where in Northern California do you live? I have a very good friend who's relocating to, I want to say, San Francisco or Sacramento, but crud. I can't remember? I will have to ask her. We attended Ohio State together - met her through a ASL class or two. She's such a great person. She's going out there for a speech/hearing job. Speech pathologist, I think.

I live in the East Bay Area (Concord), which is about an hour from San Francisco and just over an hour to Sacramento. I actually grew up just 30 minutes from Sac and my family still lives out there. :)

Without a doubt it would have to be my son's wedding. It was beautiful and perfect. I love my new daughter-in-law so much.

For me it was without any doubt last week's Christmas eve with our complete family!!(see pics in topic I posted about that: http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=171268 )

I absolutely and totally LOVE winter! As I get older I love it more and more. Last year was a winter lover's dream come true with all the wonderful frigid temperatures and most of all, more snow than we've had here in quite some time. Hoping for a repeat this winter!

Favorite Event - Graduating high school, finally!

Favorite Memory - Senior Week - Prom, Senior trip, Senior Breakfast, Year book signing party and everything about Senior year!

I can't complain. I graduated high school, worked with awesome people all summer, got through my first semester of college with a 3.77 GPA, and finally got a job involving DOGS!:D

Oh gosh, I don't even know.

Probably all the things I did with my new awesome friends in college. Like salsa dancing, laser tag, 3spoons yogurt, etc.

Getting Brennan was also a really great event because I've wanted a Pit Bull my whole life ever since I knew a thing about them.

Oh, and getting my license and my first car was pretty eventful :D

I'd have to second this. The last few winters have been very snowy and I love it!:D Adopting Angel and Tessa were very happy events!:love:

Not to be depressing - but this year was really bad for me. The one great thing though was getting Clover. I couldn't have made it through the year without her.

Clara's second birthday party in August was definitely a high point! We had a huge turnout, with over 40 people stopping by throughout the day! Including my mother. She stayed about a week. :)

Clara and I flew to Illinois in May to see my mother's side of the family. It was amazing. I hadn't seen them since 06 or 07. Definitely don't want to go that long again between visits!

Reentering the workforce in October, even if for only 20-25 hours a week! It's been nice, even though I miss my girl when I'm gone!

It's been a wonderful year. :)

My favorite event was getting engaged! Only happened a few weeks ago actually. Had a lot of great memories with my fiance and family this year. Every year gets better and better for me :)

Deffinatley my junior prom. :) They say prom is one of the greatest nights of your life and lemme tell ya, it was! It was such a blast.

I have a lot of memories from this year. My baby boy's first steps, my brother got married to a wonderful girl, and we found out we're expecting baby #2. :)
