Tis' the time to reflect back on the year that is heading on out and embrace the next one! I have to say 2011 was mostly an uneventful year for us. In a good way. We had:
- Yet another fine Spa weekend 2011 with the ladies
- Our baby learn to sleep through the night.
- My family and friends helped me raise almost $2000 for the MS walk!
- One crazy week of summer birthday celebrations and a family reunion.
- A diagnoses of "exercise induced hives" but I didn't let that stop me and went on to run 3 big races.
- Starting back on my MS meds
- My longtime friend, April, moving her family back to Boise after 15+ years
- That baby learned how to walk after 16 and 3/4 months.
- Lucas got to hang out and drive around rockstars. Well, they used to be big stars at one point.
- The mighty hunter came back empty handed but thrilled to go out on the hunt.
- Time with all of my family this summer.
- Taking our complete family to Red Fish
- Being nationally recognized for the work we do with local families at our Luna Mom's Club
- Eliza trying out dance and soccer
- Erik having a clean MRI
- My dad's wife, Karen, beating breast cancer!Yippeee!
Here are some of my favorite photos to capture the year of events:

O.K. now those are some sweet, cute and lovely pictures. Life isn't perfect though. What about the funny or awkward ones that make you laugh but don't often make the final cut? Here are my favorites from this year:
Awkward family photo
Probably wish you hadn't sat down next to him now
Look! Here comes Dana on a paddle boat...wait a minute. Here is a man who should NOT be wearing a Speedo carrying a butterfly net. Random.
It is really hard to have all the kids looking at you smiling.
It is even tougher to have just one of them crying their eyes out.
Thank you to everyone who sent us lovely Christmas cards of their beautiful families this year. Thank you to all our loved ones who made our year fun, entertaining, and joyful. We are so grateful for those who support and complete our family and circle of friends. Much love and Cheers to 2012! |
