Goodbye 2012, Hello 2013!

Looking back on 2012, I can confidently say it was not the year we started out thinking it would be!  Last January we were blissfully unaware that our world was about to be rocked by all that pregnancy and adding a tiny human to our family would bring!  Adding that huge surprise to the mix, our 2012 was wildly successful and more than we could have imagined.  

We were able to check five things off of our bucket list: hang out with a penguin, visit the Orange Show and the Art Car museum, see a show in Vegas and Benjamin saw a Dynamo's game in the new stadium.  We were able to add Nevada and Hawaii to the list of states Benjamin and I have visited together.  

We spent a lot of evenings together on the couch with our favorite Lubaby, celebrated her fourth birthday and spent many afternoons swimming in the pool with her!

We celebrated milestones of Mee Maw turning 80, my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary, and our 5 year anniversary along with the announcement and arrival of our sweet Winston Ace!

All of this coupled with spending time with family and friends, along everything else I was able to write about during the year plus the blessing of working for a fabulous company and Benjamin loving his residency rounded out 2012 in a fabulous way.

2013 is already here and it's hard to believe a full week is already gone.  It's back to the routine of the daily grind for Benjamin and I with a new adventure ahead for Winston.  We are excited about what 2013 will bring our way the biggest thing being Benjamin's graduation from residency!!  Woo hoo and praise the Lord!  We hope that y'all have had fun reading our updates and that you will keep following along with our little crazy corner of the world!
