2013: A Review

My 2013 summary goes a little like this.


In January we started the year with a one year old and a trip to Osceola cheese!


 
In February we had an awesomely beautiful snowfall.
 
Plus I got my certificate for finishing my Photography course with Penn Foster.

 
In March it was Easter and my 26th birthday.

 
In April we went to the NASCAR race and celebrated the husbands birthday.
 
 In May we planted a garden, went to Roaring River for the first time and went to Tennessee for the first time.

In June we went to Poplar Heights the living history farm and Dravyn took her first visit to the zoo on Father's Day.

 
In July we celebrated the Forth of July and Dravyn's second birthday.


In September we went to the dirt track for some racing, and went to the airport and saw airplanes, skydivers, and helicopters.  Dravyn and I also went with family to KC where she and Mattie had all kinds of fun playing.

I also completed my fist 5k!


In October we had the family campout and went to the cider mill lots of fun times in October.


In November we put up lights outside, and celebrated Thanksgiving twice.

December was all about Christmas, lights, music, Christmas music and gifts were all included.







I hope that 2014 is filled with even more adventures and time together.

As always I have fallen behind in my posting and have some catching up to do.  We had some illness, and then celebrated Thanksgiving.  On Thanksgiving we went to my grandparents house and spent time with my family.  We ate yummy food and went for a walk on the farm, which of course I forgot to take pictures of, but I did get this great one of baby girl and grandma.
 
 
Then the day after we celebrated at home with Kevin's parents and Dravyn cooked corn casserole and green bean casserole.  She did great and only stirred stuff out of the bowl about 18 times.  Then after we ate we all watched Red 2.  It was a fun Thanksgiving.

 
Of course there was decorating.  The first year we decorated the outside of the house. We also put up the tree, and we helped decorate at the church.





 
 Then we all got sick again, like miserable sick. Dravyn got one month closer to 3, and gave me many, many looks like this one.

 
The last weekend I somehow pulled off a very homemaker type weekend, which is usually something I fail miserably at.  However I managed to bake Christmas goodies, and we made ornaments for the tree, inspired by Pinterest of course.
 



 
I actually have all the shopping and wrapping done already.  Now I am just waiting for Christmas day.  I love Christmas morning and am looking forward to Dravyn getting her gifts.  I think that she is really going to enjoy this year.
