2009 Year in Review

Here is a look back at 2009. We had lots of fun as always, and had some pretty big changes in our life. It's crazy that it's 2010, but we are looking forward to making it a great year.

January
Some good old fashioned winter fun up at Bear Lake.

February
Superbowl party. At least this year it didn't end in utter disappointment and depression like last year (Did I mention I still hate the Giants?). We picked up some sweet 3D glasses for the Monsters vs. Aliens preview commercial.

March
Couldn't find any pictures for March. Must mean we were too busy having fun.
April
For Easter, we bought some bunnies. The first addition to the Sartori farm.

May
Who doesn't love Cinco de Mustache?

Plus we added to the Sartori Farm with a garden.

We enjoyed a night at the Melting Pot with some friends. Fondu-ing it up.

June
Our first bunnies ran away (those ungrateful little hares). But we got some new ones, and found we liked them better than the first ones. It looks like they really like each other in this picture too.

Someone broke out our rear window. Lame.

July
The garden continued to grow. Plus we enjoyed harvesting some juicy rasberries.

What's summer without a trip to Raging Waters? Boring, if you ask us.

August
We harvested the Apricots. Plus Matt took the scouts to Scout Camp, where they were the best troop in the whole camp. That's no exaggeration, because they won the 3 Bar Honor award, and the Spirit Stick.

Mel decided she would try to get a tan. You may be able to tell from her red legs, that it didn't work as planned.

September
Milo Jon Sartori was born on September 17, changing our lives drastically. But in a great way.

Matt's band Hearsay went to the recording studio to record their first EP, Lost Direction. Next time you see him, ask him about obtaining a copy, and he'll get you a CD.

October
Matt checked off another goal: Go to an NFL football game and see the Patriots. He went with Brett and Spencer to Denver to see the Patriots play the Broncos. It was a thrilling game, that went into overtime, but the Broncos came away with the win. It was so awesome.
We had great seats on the 20 yard line.

Here is a shot of Tom Brady rearranging his "equipment".

November
All the festivities of Thanksgiving really wore out Milo.

December
We welcomed home Matt's parents from their mission early, because they have received a new call to serve as Mission Presidents. Selfishly, we are glad to have them back so they can see Milo. Matt made them a cake, shaped like their mission tags.

Santa came to visit us. Good thing we were good this year. Mel and Milo sitting with the big guy in red.

Once again, all the Christmas festivities wore out Milo.
