32 was a good year. It ended with a celebration surrounded by good friends (as so many of my NY nights are) on a rooftop patio. However, as I look back on this past year, I realize that in addition to the lovely 'normal' days I have had, I have also had some pretty rad adventures as well. Some of the special events of my 32nd year that helped break up the monotony of work/play/life include:
LASIK eye surgery.
Two trips to Florida (once in October to Disney world, again for winter break to Miami).
Two trips to Las Vegas (once in May 08 for Paul's birthday, once in April 09 for 'Peepshow' opening).
My best friends (Carlos and Joe's) wedding on the beach in Costa Rica (zip-lining, river rafting, hiking, swimming, etc....).
My little brother Kyle's wedding in Boise, Idaho.
4th of July in Idaho with my family.
Celebrating the life of my Grandpa, Bill Henderson at his Memorial Service 7/5/08.
Carly Lewis White's wedding in SLC.
Sharing dinner with some new friends- Bill Clinton, Michael Buble, LeeAnn Womack, etc...
Spending a long weekend in Chicago and watching TWO tapings of the Oprah Winfrey Show.
Attending the final match of the US Open.
Long weekend in Montreal with Seth M.
Cirque du Soleil.
Weekend trips to Washington DC, Sleepy Hollow, and the Poconos.
Reaching the goal of (at the time) seeing every musical currently playing on Broadway.
Experiencing the campaign, election,and inauguration of President Barack Obama.
Completing my first year of grad school.

Karyn I love you so much. I think that the life you lead is so full and wonderful-- you have managed to surround yourself with the best of everything, and you deserve every bit of it. Thanks for posting these photos.. its SO fun to see. I love you.
Better late than never? Happy Birthday to one of my favorite people. If you are one thing (but you are many--but just say it had to be one) YOU ARE LOVED. I'm happy to be one of the adoring throng. See you in August!
