Happy New Year!

I can't say that I am sad to see 2012 go. It was a hard year for us. While I haven't forgotten any of the blessings that it brought, it had its share of strife, heartache, and challenges. Nate and our families went through more than we ever bargained for- but the Lord led us out of the valley in a mighty mighty way, and we ended the year happy as clams!

Journey with me through 2012: 

Camden kicked RSV in the butt on New Years Day last year. 

 We spent 4 long days in LeBonheur and our lives were turned upside down. 

Camden celebrated his first Easter.  

And got cuter by the day. 

I got to celebrate my first Mother's Day.  

We took our first big family trip to Gulf Shores with some friends. 

It was great to get out as a family of 3.  

Nate took a trip to Zambia, Africa.  

 We found out we were expecting Baby #2. 

What redemption to a long hard year. 

Camden went to his first Mississippi State football game. 

I ran my first 5K-the Color Run. It was a blast.  

Camden started walking!  

Big Boy also turned 1 year old.  

 We found out that we were adding pink to our family! 

This Mama is thrilled. 

We ended the year celebrating the birth of our Savior. 

I can not wait to see what all 2013 holds. I have a suspicious feeling that our family is in for some changes. Big changes. Good changes. I am giddy at the start of a new year. A new baby. A new beginning for our family after the tough year that 2012 was. 

Happy New Year!
