Marsha's Best of 2008
Best Event of My Year: March Wedding – our simple and intimate ceremony was by far the highlight of my year. Living life with Kent continues to be “the best”. Best Family Event: Family reunion in Arkansas- there is something about connecting with your roots and those folks who share your heritage.
Best Read: Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett – best book by far that I have read in years
Best Surprise Movie: Slumdog Millionaire – surprise movie of the year. I loved it from beginning to end.
Best in Television: House/24 – plain great writing and acting
Best Decision: Starting to run/bike/swim –. I just need to get back to it—soon.
Best Monthly Events: Book Clubs – The best-buddies and the church-ladies are both the fabulous.
Best Comeback: Coffeehouse Theology Sunday School Class – for the first time in 20 years, I look forward to going to Sunday school every week. I didn’t appreciate how intelligent, insightful and wise my mother is until having the opportunity to sit under her teaching.
Best in Music: Lenny Kravitz –It’s Time for a Love Revolution
Best in Christian music: Chris Sligh – Running Back to You
Best in Education: PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support) – most effective education practices in my career. Of course it is because at my school there is a total buy-in AND an exceptional PBIS team.
Best Card Game: A tie between Dominion and Great Dalmuti (check them out at The Boardroom)
Best Strategy Game: Pillars of the Earth

There was a 2008? It went by so fast, I really don't remember it. To be honest, I would have an incredibly difficult time making my list.
But I will put my 2c in for my favorite games in 2008:
Strategy - Stone Age and Agricola
Card - San Juan (not new in '08)
"Spoof" - Munchkin (not new in '08)
Ok, I am now done with my pitiful plugs.
I'm always a sucker for these things. (Plus I was bored and a bit brain-dead this afternoon. =))
Here's mine:

Happy New Year's to you, Marsha!

Marsha, I agree about Slumdog Millionaire and Chris Sligh ... two of my faves this year, as well!
