Wow- it’s been a while! I can’t
believe I let my blogging go on for this
long!!
My new goal is to just blog within
the moment- sharing pictures and keeping short our recaps of what is going on!
I love going back and looking at
what we’ve done throughout the past several years! I spent at least an hour the
other day looking at pictures of when Sage was born and her first year of life
and now I can REALLY see what everyone said of how Sage and Evan look alike!!
Okay- let’s recap!!
November-
*Brad started a new job being an
insurance consultant for a company called Century Benefits. He got the job
through a friend. Brad jumped right into this new challenge and did an
outstanding job through the busy enrollment season and continues to excel in
sales. I think he finally found what fits him and his personality! I’m really
proud of him- but mostly, to see him so confident and happy with his new role!
*Our sweet new precious niece Quinn
Marne’ was born 11/12 and so happy for her healthy arrival!
*Thanksgiving- We drove up to Pasco
to spend the Thanksgiving weekend with the Casey family, my mom and the Solem
family. It was a great time and we got to meet our newest and adorable niece,
Quinn! We just love her!! She is sooo cute and her name fits her perfect! I
can’t wait to see her grow up and how her and Harper will be the same and
different! What I do know is that they are just absolutely adorable little
girls!!!
December-
We had a very busy December. Both
Brad and I were extremely busy at work. We didn’t do as much as we wanted to
for activities within the month- but we managed to do a few. The kids got to
meet Santa for the very first time at their school. It was so fun! The parents
got to be there for picture opportunities and each child received a present
from Santa. Both kids loved it- even with Evan crying on his lap. Because the
minute he was off- he was pointing to Santa saying “Ho-Ho-Ho”.
December also brought on a month of
illness. Seems like Evan was sick for a lot of this winter.
We had a wonderful Christmas with
my mom coming up and spending the holiday with us. Evan ended up with croup on
Christmas and was a long night for Brad and I, but he seemed to get over fairly
quickly within a few days. The kids had a wonderful Christmas- both were
spoiled by everyone!
Mike and Lynda joined us the
weekend after Christmas. The kids were beyond happy to see Gangy and Grandma
and Grandpa.
Here are a few pictures from those
months.
