What a {Great!} Year

For the first time in about 5 years, I did not write a lengthy and detailed letter to enclose in our Christmas card. So many friends and family follow us online on FB or on here...but for the record, 2011 was one for the record books. This weekend, we watched several shows on TV with the "top lists of 2011"- whether it was news, sports plays, etc. It always seems that the events that transpired back in January, hardly feel like it happened this year. We often wonder, "where does time go?" And now with children, it seems to fly by even faster. Together, we reflected on what an amazing and blessed year we enjoyed. Here are some of our highlights...
  • Jeremy's promotion to Area Manager
  • Our relocation to the North Pole, {aka Minnesota}
  • A fabulous trip to Maui, thanks to Jeremy's leadership and management skills
  • Surviving the Tsunami Warning, while in Hawaii
  • Our new home...which we love
  • My new{er}car...which I love
  • Many blessings of generous gifts for baby L from many family and friends, including new friends here
  • A healthy pregnancy and perfect delivery of Miss L
  • Loving life with Miss L
Instead of waiting to see "what's in store" for 2012...I am determined to make it a great year. We look forward to an upcoming vacation with some of my family, starting solid baby foods and making our own baby food, exploring the Twin Cities, getting {back} into shape and doing my best to provide a fabulous life of experiences and fun for Miss L.

From our family to yours - May you have a blessed, peaceful and healthy 2012~

World Kindness Day

Last week was World Kindness Day and I think this date has never been more relevant than after the U.S. election and going into the holidays...
