2008 - A Crazy Year in Pictures... in no particular order because that requires entirely too much organization and skill in uploading photos!

Marc and I have had an amazing year - not really our best, but the most dramatic year I've had in a while - from Marc's greencard being delayed to moving to the Cayman Islands from NYC to getting engaged and now wedding planning it's been one crazy year... so rather than blab on and tell all about it, I thought I'd show off some of our favorite pictures from 2008. Enjoy!!!


Marc and I at The Office Lounge for Saturday Night Karaoke - our favorite!!!
Ashley Turner is... dum da dum dum - THE HURRICANE HUNTER!!!!
Here she is, seeking out Hurricane Gustav in his natural habitat!

And here's Cornelius, her Dim Witted Assistant!


Outside Newport on the Levy in Newport, Kentucky just across the river from Cincinatti in October


Marc is so strong he holds up the cruise ships - it's his way of boosting tourism and protecting the fragile economy!



Out for pizza and fries at The Dog House, a favorite hang out on Grand Cayman!


HELL - a tourist attraction on island.



Thanksgiving is not a holiday on Grand Cayman because it's an overseas British teritory, but I still managed to find some turkey on Thanksgiving!!!



A picture from the internet of Hurricane Gustav's storm surges washing up over the road!



Marc and I in Cincinatti - after a long week of shopping, meeting, planning and trying on dresses, we finally made time to go out for a casual dinner on the last night which happened to be Sweetest Day - ah, how sweet!


Marc and I attended a party called "Wetting the Baby's Head" - it's called that cause it's a night out for the new dad to have drinks a few weeks after a baby is born (for those of you who don't know, I'd never heard of it before). We were celebrating the birth of my Manager's son!



On the night Marc proposed (excuse my wardrobe - it was a heavy lifting day at work and a total surprise!) a dude put an iguana on my shirt and he was very comfy there!!!


One of my favorite engagement photos!!!

Marc and I in our Pirate gear watching the Pirates Week parade!!!



Pimp Daddy and Amy Winehouse!
My costume got 3rd place!!! Was a great night!
(yes, M's mustache is a fake!)



My beautiful engagement ring!






Christmas in the Caymans - took this outside The Ritz. They had great decorations!



For our first few months here, we shared a house with an ex-marine, Phil and his wife. He didn't clean out the storage closet for a few months and when he did, we found a dead snake - it didn't bend anymore - rigormortis had definitely set in. GROSS!

This is me holding two gold finches at the bird aviary at The Turtle Farm!

Blue bird of happiness!

Marc holding a turtle at the turtle farm! I didn't cause I was chicken - they flap around like crazy until you tickle under their chins... so cute!

Marc's birthday cake, just before he left for Grand Cayman - I made it!!!!
Anyway, that's our year in pictures for the most part - hope you enjoyed it!
We wish everyone a Safe, Happy & Healthy New Year - all the best and hope it's a great one!!!
xoxo,
Pink Julep
