As I look forward to the upcoming year, my list of goals seems to grow and I find I have mixed feelings including excitement, hope, determination, and a little apprehension concerning what lies ahead. Life took us for a ride last year and it is always fun (and good) to look back and see what we accomplished last year! So here it goes! (This is promising to be a long post... just a fair warning!)
January:
Brayden. discovered the fun of snow and thought it was great fun to help Dad shovel the driveway of our apartment.
February:
We found, put in an offer, and officially closed on a house in about 18 days! It was a whirlwind of an adventure and HUGE step for us and our family!
We also sent a sister on her mission to Florida.
March:
 |
| We got a puppy! We adore her! This is Sunny! |
 |
| Brayden turned 2! |
We took a family trip to St. George for Easter!
April:
We spent some fun time playing with my brother before we sent him on his mission to Florida.
May:
Brayden found out he is getting a sister! And (as luck would have it) a girl cousin! PS. We had to sell Sunny... I cried for days... but she has a good family that will take care of her.
June:
 |
| We got to see Mary Poppins at the Tuacahn. |
 |
| Finally reached the 3rd trimester! |
We went camping with my parents. Brayden discovered the dirt... he was dirtier in person... my mom also taught me how to crochet!
 |
| Mom and Grandma were talking crochet... look at what he was reduced to! We call it "Glamping" |
July:
 |
| Colonial Days for the 4th. |
 |
| Hot air balloons. Brayden wasn't so sure about it all... |
August:
 |
| Lap time with Mother Goose at the library |
 |
| Pony ride at the petting zoo |
September:
We welcomed our daughter (Madilynn) to the family.
 |
| We welcomed our little cousin this month too! |
 |
| Brayden loves his little sister! |
October:
October is usually a big month for us. Madilynn was given a name and a blessing, I took the opportunity to take a few fall pictures... and we had our Halloween party!
 |
| One Month Old! |
November:
We went to the zoo with Grandma and Grandpa. Brayden had a blast!
 |
| 2 Months Old! |
November was also when we south to attend my Grandmother's funeral. She was an incredible woman and she will be sorely missed.
