2012 in Review

Happy 2013! Here's a look at what all we did last year :)
We celebrated Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas:

Aidan turned SIX and had a bowling sleepover with five of his friends:

He graduated from kindergarten, and started first grade!

He did Upward Basketball, gymnastics, Cub Scouts, lost two teeth, and learned to ride his bike with no training wheels!

Avery turned FIVE and had a mini-party at Sweet and Sassy:

She started Pre-K at Mother's Day Out, and also started doing some homeschooling with Mommy!

She did ballet (with Cousin Sage, of course!), gymmnastics, soccer, and learned to ride her new bike with training wheels:

I did a 5K and a Mud Run:

But had to sit out of another Mud Run because I broke my wrist ice-skating and had to have surgery :(

I made plenty of "me" time with my mom friends and my old college buddies:

My mom and I took the kids on a West Texas trip to see Great-Pa, Gamma, Mema, Aunt Jeri, Uncle Reggie, and Cousin Jessica:

Papi, Grammy, Uncle Jason, and his girlfriend Kelly came for a visit:

We saw plenty of Grandpa, Nanna, Kathleen, Jacob, and their horses:

We took a trip to Granbury with Cookie, Jeff, Gigi, Cody, Amy, Lindsay, Jason, Sage, and Logan (and went to Fossil Rim!):

Cousin Ellie was born!!

My high school friend Mollie got married:

The kids stayed busy over the summer doing VBS and swim lessons:

We took a really fun family trip to San Antonio, where we stayed at a resort and went to Sea World:

We went to plenty of Baylor games. Sic 'Em Bears!!

My brother and all of our Jolly cousins came over for Jollypalooza!

Aidan and I competed in a family obstacle course along with our friends Tracey and Kaelyn:

We went to the State Fair, on the sad day that Big Tex burned down :(

Last but certainly not least, Daniel worked very hard and traveled a lot. He used his traveling rewards to take me to London and Paris!

What a year full of fun and blessings!! We can't wait to see what 2013 has in store for us. Hope you all have a Happy New Year!

New Years and Daniel's Birthday

Part 3 of Christmas was delayed a few days because my father-in-law had the flu, but when he was better all the Stewards came up here to open presents and celebrate Daniel's birthday.

We also went out the night before with our friends Nick and Katie (Nick works with Daniel).

On New Years Eve my parents threw a mini-party for the kids complete with party hats, balloons, orange sherbet floats, etc.

Daniel and I went to my friend Kimberly's to ring in the new year.
