Significant things that happened in 2008 (some good and some bad)...
- I started my Master's Degree in Instructional Technology in January and have almost completed a year (will next Tuesday) with only 5 more classes remaining! YEAH!
- Jonathan, my nephew, had his 2nd birthday in February (not possible!) which means he's about to turn 3...
- Aaron graduated from college with his bachelor's degree in Computer Science in May (go Aaron!)
- My brother-in-law, Joey, graduated from college
- Debbie and I put together two very successful workshops - Web 2.0 Boot Camp and Engaging Students with Digital Media in June and July.
- Aaron and I took a trip to Kansas City, MO to be there for the birth of my nephew, Ethan, though he decided to wait a few days until my parents got there. He was born the middle of July. Welcome to the world Ethan!
- I turned 32 (really?) and Aaron turned 29...really. :)
- Debbie (my former co-worker and I) wrote a grant at work and it was awarded in September.
- My neice, Jade, started 1st grade this fall!
- My sister-in-law, Melissa, went back to school
- I've been doing the job of three all by myself for 4 months including implementing the Virtual Learning strand of the Vision 2020 grant which is all new. Boy am I learning a lot! Hopefully I'll only have to be alone for a couple of more months...
- My brother-in-law, Mike, had a cancer flair-up, but was treated and is now in remission (thank you God!)
- My step-sister-in-law (whom I had never met), passed away at the age of 40
- My nephew, Jacob, turned 2 (already!)...
- The economy went into a horrible recession this fall, though, so far, Aaron and I have been blessed to not be affected
