2012 was another amazing year for our family with lots of fun trips, memories, and big surprises!
January: I am always surprised at how young the kids look at the beginning of the year! We seemed to have stayed home and played a lot in January. Lots of painting, bike riding, and fun! Arabelle went to her first movie, bowling, and dentist visit in January!

February: This started a time of birthday celebrations! We went to Lawrenceville for Caleb's 1st birthday and Macon for Anderson's 4th birthday. Bo turned 18 months old that month too!
March: We had a lot of fun in March....the weather was warming up, we enjoyed Rhianna & Gigi's birthday, had the girls over for a sleepover, enjoyed gymnastics, and much more! Jared also left his job at the public defender's office and opened his own law practice.
April: Another fun and bust month! We went to the beach & zoo for Spring Break, celebrated Easter, went to the strawberry patch on a field trip, jumped in rain puddles, and got a fun new swing set!
May: We went to the Bloodworth family reunion, celebrated Mother's Day, went on our family trip to the beach, started enjoying the blueberry season, Arabelle started her t-ball season, celebrated our 8 year wedding anniversary, started summer break from school, and it warmed up enough to start enjoying the pool!
June: I sure do love the summer months! In June, Arabelle continued t-ball and attended soccer camp one week. We took the annual blueberry picture, spent family time in Mamaw and Papaw's pool, celebrated Father's Day, Bo got his first hair cut at the barber shop, we enjoyed VBS at our church, and prepped for our mission trip to Haiti.
July: We started out the month of July in Haiti. What an amazing experience....life changing! Arabelle and Bo spent 10 days at Mamaw and Papaw's while we were on the trip. We also played outside a lot, swam, celebrated July birthday's in Pineview, 'cut the ribbon' at Jared's law practice, and closed out the month with a long weekend in Boston.
August: This month was a little slower than July, but still packed with fun! We went to Wild Adventures, started back to 'school', Bo turned 2 years old, visited the ER for Arabelle's busted head, and we had a blast hosting Arabelle and Bo's birthday party!
September: Well, I got the biggest and best surprise of my life in Sept. when I discovered I was pregnant! Talk about surprise!!! Jared went elk hunting in Colorado about the time the sickness started, so I don't have a whole lot of fond memories of Sept. Blah! We did enjoy the pool some more, celebrate Arabelle's 4th birthday in Pineview and at Monkey Joe's with Anderson and Isaiah, played with Caleb in Pineview one weekend, and attended my 10 year HS reunion.
October: This month was one big blur to me. I was in survival mode, I think. We went to Atlanta for Arabelle's yearly urology check up, went to the Ga. National Fair with Mamaw, had a fun field trip to the pumpkin patch, enjoyed the Roberts reunion, celebrated Mamaw's birthday & met Lowndes for the first time, and had fun with all the Fall Festivals and Halloween!
November: I didn't take many pictures this month and that's surprising! We played a lot at home, Arabelle went to her first UGA football game with Jared, finished soccer camp, celebrated Thanksgiving with our families, and got our Christmas tree.
December: An action packed and fun month! We enjoyed lots of time with our families, met baby Jacob, had Christmas parties at school, saw Santa, and celebrated Christmas. It was "super fun" as Arabelle says!
We're excited to see what the Lord has in store for us in 2013!!!!
