Happy New Year!

Bob and I had a really great year in 2012. We got engaged in February as well as we adopted our little cuddle bug Jazzy. I finally made it to the color festival in March. We had a few stressful months of wedding planning before tying the knot in September, doubling the amount of family we each had and allowing me to finally have the title of Aunt to 13 beautiful nieces and nephews. Tessa was also able to adopt Braxton in September making him an official member of the family (though in our eyes, he had always been a member). We took the vacation of a lifetime to the beautiful island of Cozumel where we swam with dolphins, ziplined over the rainforest, pet monkeys, scuba dived and snorkled with stingrays, sea turtles, sharks and thousands of different fish, snorkled in a Cenote, went repelling, made a lot of new friends, relaxed on the beach and spent a lot of time having fun in the sun! We then spent our first Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas together as a married couple.

While 2012 was an amazing year, we are so excited to see what 2013 has in store for us. It started off great! We rang in the new year surrounded by Bob's side of the family including Ana and the kids who came all the way from Washington to spend time with the family. (Anyone who knows Bob and I knows that there is a special place in our hearts for Ana's kids!) I was so happy to spend time with all the nieces and nephews as well as the in-laws, I feel like every time I spend time with them we bond a little more! Unfortunately I have been sick and miserable every day since then! This year has been a roller coaster of good and bad already, so we will see how the rest of the year goes...
