I stumbled upon The Peach Tart she posted this chart "The decade in review!" I loved it and thought I'd share it on my post today:) Please see her blog and read the chart it's great!So in the spirit of the chart I decided that I would post my own top events that happened for me in this decade. The list was sooo long and I didn't want you guys to doze off:) I narrowed it down to my top 5 events!!!
1. The Birth of my twins: Cameron Evan 8lb 2oz and Sydney Erin 6lbs 7oz
2. The loss of my mother Pauline to Ovarian Cancer
3. Relocated to Georgia and bought a fixer upper with Hubby!!!
4. Celebrated my Brother finally getting married right before 50:) 
5. My own Fifteen minutes of fame (well more like 7 fabulous minutes:) when The Travel Channel sent me on an all expense paid once in a lifetime trip to Europe with my girlfriends!
What are your top 5 best events over the past Decade?
I would love to hear yours, please feel free to post even if your anonymous:)

Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting and for sharing this great chart. I'm still working on my list. Take care and Happy New Year.
The all expense paid trip to Europe had to be a biggie!
Great post! Your mommy was sooo pretty!
Wow! My top five ... marrying husband, having Miles, having Milan, ooh our trip and probably today ... my new little niece baby Haven!
Winks & Smiles,
Wifey
My top five but not exactly in this order: getting a better job, getting a better car because I couldn't drive the other one at night because driving with the lights on made it stop, letting go of people that did me no good, getting my hair cut for me, letting bygones be bygones.
Going natural and chopping all my hair off, the publication of my first book, accepting the fact that I am not religious, turning 40, sending Firstborn to public school.
Ms Wanda...Let me just start out by sayin you have some good lookin family girl!!! You, your hubs, brother, and sister in law are MCBEAUTIFUL!!!
My Top 5 this decade.....So wrong that I have been married longer than a decade....so
1. The birth of my 1st son
2. The birth of my 2nd son
3. Celebrating my 10 yr anniversary with hubs
4. A trip to Greece, Italy and Croatia (not all expenses paid boo)
5. My BABY starting Kindergarten....

Wow! It's hard to name just 5 in the last 10 years right? I love these comments:) I share so many of these same events!!!
I'd like to say one huge thing that happened for me this decade was discovering the Dance Factory (my daughters dance company):) and falling in love with the entire DF Family and the moms!!!
Wow! My top 5 wouldn't even compare to yours!! But the Hawaii trip would definitely be up there!
Grand Pooba the Hawaii trip covers the past 10years:)
Please go over and read about her trip to Hawaii, the pictures are fabulous!
OOOHHH!!!! I love this! Okay, do you mind if I bite this for my blog post tomorrow? I'm gonna! And I'll give you all the credit.
Okay, YOU are incredibly beautiful and so are those babies—as was your mom. And your brother's wife is a stunner. Good grief—all that beauty!
I don't have a top 5 this year, all I can say is bring on 2010! You had a great year, though I'm sorry to hear about your mom. My post today is about Cancer awareness and donations for research. Come check it out.
I hope your 2010 is even better!

(3) Amazing travel experiences
(4) Buying my own home in London
