A Year in Review

This year has been a crazy, amazing year.

And it wouldn't be right if I didn't end it with a summary of the highlights.............through pictures, of course!

We started out the year with a couple trips to the snow-covered mountains. First, a trip with some friends to go snowmobiling.

And then another trip to the cabin - taking Carter this time. He had a lot of fun in his little snow suit!

We tried food for the first time - which was a success. There hasn't been anything he has not liked. Whew!!

We made a couple big purchases - the first being a (much needed) new truck.
The second being a big screen TV. It wasn't as much needed as the truck, but it was a purchase that has been well worth the money.

We learned to sit up all by ourselves.

We planned a wedding.

We took day trips to the mountains.

We also took fishing trips to the mountains.

We spent hours and hours at the pool........the little kiddie pool, and the BIG pool.

We introduced Carter to fireworks - which he really liked! I was quite nervous as to how he would react, but he liked them a lot.

We had a bridal shower for the bride.

We took engagement pictures.

We went camping without the child for the first time........seemed like a long weekend, but it was fun nonetheless!

We learned to crawl!!

We spent many nights at the ball field.

We visited with great-grandmas.

We went back to the cabin for a summer visit.

We went to the fair and saw goats and many other animals for the first time. We also rode a horse for the first time.

We had a bachelorette party............and I may have been intoxicated. Maybe.

We got married.

And took a fabulous honeymoon.

And when we got back, our little boy turned one year old.

And learned to walk!!

We made history. Well, I helped. The husband voted for the other guy.

We made discoveries.

And acted like monkeys.

And then visited more animals at the zoo!!

Overall, it's been a great year. Definitely one of the best years I have ever had and I can't wait to see what this new year has in store for us!
