I hope all of you have had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's, I certainly enjoyed the time I spent with my family!
Since it's still close to New Year's Day, I thought I'd post a review of the
year through pictures. I have a number of pictures, so this might take a few posts!
Here is a picture from New Year's Eve in 2011. We're eating the traditional Gardner cheese fondue to ring in 2012! That stuff was amazing. Seriously.
I got new reading glasses for college! I was getting pretty bad headaches while doing my homework, so I was very excited for these (now I have no excuse for not studying...).
Our wonderful friends and my parent's mentors from Tucson, AZ came for a visit while in the Midwest. It was great to see "Uncle" Tom and "Beautiful Aunt" Barb again!
I would be remiss if I didn't mention Carol's graduation from Southwestern College. Dad even got to hand her the diploma. She is now working towards her Master's degree in business administration at Southwestern.
For Carol's Graduation, Grandad and his wife Margaret, and Grandma came to visit.
May is always an eventful month and this was no exception with Carol's graduation, Annelise's dance recital, and Dad's 50th (I mean 30th) birthday. Mom put on a beautiful party with over fifty guests and two huge cakes. Many lovely things were said about Dad and the whole party was a success.
These pictures were too cute to leave out:
Sarah enjoyed taking swimming lessons in the summer and Annelise is growing up too quickly! She's already 16 years old.
I've been enjoying experiencing with different kinds of braids this year, here are a few!
Sarah lost her first tooth! And many more teeth after that, she is currently without her two front teeth and it's pretty adorable.
More to come later!
