New Years Eve was one of the most fun ones we've had in a while. We met with some friends in our ward and played games, then went to our other friends house and rang in the new year with them, WITHOUT our kids. My parents offered to take Abby and Maddi and we couldn't say no to that offer.
2013 was a fantastic year. It seems like the odd years are good to us. 2009 we got married, 2011 Abby joined our family and 2013 we got little Madalyn. I am blessed beyond measure with my little family.
Here is a little rundown of what happened with us in 2013:

2013, you were a fantastic year. 2014, I hope you treat me good too. I really want this to be my year. I know I know, that line is so stupid, but I've set some goals that I really want to keep, and I think it just might be the year I do.
Bring it!
I'm glad it was a good year for you! I can't believe that all that happened was just this last year...it seems ages ago. Welcome Madalyn, and I hope that you are successful in every way you dream this next year!
ReplyDeletewe also met in 2007- conincidence? i think not. madi was just a tiny little thing! what a good year you guys have had- i wish i could have been there to celebrate with you but i was lamely in bed right before midnight hahaha happy new year!
ReplyDelete2013 was an awesome year for you guys!! Other than the fact we moved away and Brig and Kari moved away...you had a stellar year :). I'm hoping 2014 is equally amazing if not even better (for all the Tappanas!!)
