Looking at the date of my last post, it was right before we found out we would be moving. October, November, and December, though exciting, were a bit of whirlwind. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the holidays, but this year, I was relieved to turn the page on the calendar and start afresh. 2012 was a great year for us, but very busy (and a little stressful). We moved the beginning of December and are enjoying our new place. It's a little sad it's so cold outside and that we've only met a few neighbors, but we are getting settled. It won't be long before spring is here and I will be plunging into learning how to garden with my VERY green thumb. I'm a little nervous about that, but excited too.
We had a December full of celebrations, mostly Christmas related. Marc and I also celebrated 7 years (what?!) of marriage. We did not do anything major this year, but did enjoy a very nice dinner at Stoney River. I really cannot believe 7 years has gone by. Thankfully I can say it's been a good 7 years, and that I am confident the next 7 years should only get better. I also can not believe our kids are going on 3 and 5 (another "what?!").
Here are some pics:
This is from our last night at 603 Barberry. Lydia was in charge of the class squirrel "Nutsy" that week too. Nutsy got to stay with us during a very exciting time. Here are Lydia and Nutsy sitting in an empty box in our old living room.

And the kids were getting a little goofy New Years Eve (ummm.... sugar high maybe?)
Realizing how fast time is going by , I set some more strenuous goals this year - nothing in itself crazy, just the amount. I am sure I won't reach them all, but I'm hoping that by reaching for the stars, I'll at least get the moon. :) I didn't go into 2012 with any goals and I want 2013 to be different. I desire to go deeper in my walk with the Lord, with my friends and family, be healthier, and more productive with my time(nothing crazy!). We'll see how it goes!
