2008 was a crazy, cool, wonderful, year for Weddingbee thanks to our superfantabulous readers, and our talentedawesomeblogariffic Bees. The hive celebrated so many milestones in 2008… won’t you join me in reminiscing?

So let me start the New Year for apologizing for my… um… lack of existence lately. The holidays swallowed me whole and just finally spit me out. My last post left off with the send-off of our invites. This is the follow up… our invites!

These are the labels that I wrote to Miss Etiquette about. I printed these out on 8.5″x11″ label sheets (6 on a sheet). Mr. Sushi and I cut them out individually by hand. I am sooo glad we did; I might be a lil’ biased, but I think they came out quite nicely.

A Year In Review: 2008

January 1st, 2009 @ 10:31 am by Mrs. Cheese

I have a tradition of my very own for New Year’s Eve, one I’ve had for as long as I can remember. Every year, I look back at the past year, at the things I’m grateful for, at what I’ve learned, and what I’ve succeeded at and where I’ve failed. The next day, after recovering from whatever partying I might have done (full disclosure: almost never anything terribly exciting), I put together a few goals for the next year. Not resolutions, mind you, because I fail at those, but personal goals.

For 2008, I wrote:

Talk to Mr. Cheese, even when it’s hard, even when I really don’t want to, especially when I’d rather walk away (even for a little while).

Pet my cats, anytime they ask, long enough for it to matter.

Refrain from spending money exorbitantly, impulsively, when other people are involved. {I’d just spent over a hundred bucks on cookie making supplies for a small get together, and was feeling bad.}

Do the cash thing.

Last year, somewhere along the way, I vowed to live my life more honestly, with more genuineness and fewer lies, even the small white ones. I did it! This year, I vow to live my life with more awareness and joy, with less worry and regret.
