I know it's been forever since I posted and I don't really have readers anymore, but once my life slows down a little it is one of my desires to start weekly updates here about my (scratch that) OUR life to help keep in touch with all of you and keep records for furutre scrapbooking/journaling endevors. In the mean time, here's a little bit of what we've been up to so far this year:
JANUARY
We had the honor of attending Jessica and Peter Schmitt's wedding in January. Jessica is an old co-op friend of mine and our weddings had many similarities. It was Danny's and my first wedding as newly weds, and by far the most enjoyable one we'd ever attended, because it brought back so many good memories! This picture came from a photo booth they had set up for the guests, which was a genious idea.
FEBRUARY
The day before Valentines day, we went skiing with several church friends and family. It was my third time going and I think I finally got the hang of it. We rode the slopes until they shut them down late that night, and finally crawled into bed at 2:00AM! Needless to say we were okay with staying home and taking naps on Valentines day.
ALSO...
I had the prividge of helping Mom Villa host a baby shower for Christina. It's so weird how grown up we all are now!!
MARCH
We went to Florida! Danny's family usually spends a month there every year, and we were privildeged to join them at the condo they were renting for ten whole days. We had a great time soaking in the sun by the pool every morning and eating out at the world's most AMAZING resturants pretty much every evening. (Such a drain on the budget, but worth it!) I've never been anywhere like Florida before and it was quite an experience. We also went to Arizon the weekend before, but I don't have any pictures of that so I'll have to post those later.
And last but not least...
Abigail Rose Pederson was born on March 23rd!! The Pederson's are some of our closest friends and relatives. We were in Florida at the time and couldn't wait to come home and meet her. We went over to the Pederson's on the 27th and couldn't believe how tiny and adorable she is. She actually looks a little bit like Danny according to some of the relatives. I can't wait to watch this little girl grow up.
So that's a little peak into our year. Tune in next time for more detailed updates on Florida and Arizona!
Hey babe, great post! You do need to do some more scrap booking. As soon as your done working right? Right.

Interesting marital dynamics going on in the comments ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post. I really appreciate the fly-by details about the past few months. The pictures are so fun: Abigail's little yawn is so cute.
Looking forward to the details about Florida and Arizona!
BTW just to clarify any potential misunderstanding: the cuteness of Abigail is clearly not one of the traits in which she resembles my dear cousin-in-law, Danny. Just wanted to make my opinion on that point perfectly clear ;-)
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha. Ha ha ha. That made me laugh :D
DeleteMy girls alerted me to the fact that you had posted a new blog entry with some great pictures. I "ran" to your blog at my first opportunity and am not one bit disappointed. Thanks for posting. I love the photo of you two behind picture frames. Very clever idea!

Nice to see an update :) Loving the new layout, btw. Also, that photo of you & Danny from that Wedding in January totally made me smile! So adorable :D
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the picture of you two, Emily.
ReplyDeleteI think month by month summaries are the best way to go. And super encouraging. <3 you two.
