2014 in Review

The past two years I have done a review post and it's honestly one of my faves! I love to be able to look back at some of the best memories of the year! So here we go...

January: New Year's Day I went to Seattle for a girl's weekend with some of my best friends. It was so much fun. We also found out we were pregnant at the very end of the month, and told some of our family!

February: We hosted a super fun Superbowl party and told the rest of our family our big news!

March: My sister turned 21! We went on a fun Pub Pedal, and we got to announce to the world that we were expecting!

April: We moved in with my in-laws, celebrated Easter, and had the crappiest week.

May: What a fun month! We found out that we were expecting a boy! We hosted our 3rd Annual Beer Olympics, my MIL and I saw Wicked, Justin turned 27, and Justin and I went on a boat trip with my family!

June: We celebrated our first anniversary!

July: We celebrated Doodle's 2nd birthday with a full on puppy party! I made an awesome pie for 4th of July, and we signed papers making us official property owners!

August: I worked at Black Rock again this summer, but this time with Veronica at Kid's Camp. August was filled with fun days making melty bead princesses, swimming, and crafting. I also had a truly wonderful baby shower, and ate a LOT of watermelon.

September: In September I went back to school. I also did a lot of my last minute baby prep! I also interviewed Justin Jay for one of my favorite blog posts.

October: Of course the best month of our year... what we had been looking forward to since January, was October. Our Little Sawyer Jay arrived on October 14th! By far the best part of our entire year! =)

November: In November we finally felt like we came up for air after a whirlwind October! I turned 26 and we celebrated two wonderful Thanksgivings with so so much to be thankful for!

December: Wow, what a busy month! Justin graduated, earning his Bachelor's, Sawyer was baptized, and many Christmases were celebrated!

2014 was an amazing year filled with the biggest blessing! I know that there are some exciting things coming in 2015 (like moving into our new house!) but it's going to be pretty hard to top 2014! But here's to trying! Wishing you all a year full of love and peace!

2013 in Review

A lot of time has passed since I last blogged... sorry about that. I've been busy having a blast and I have so much to share with you all. I'm starting off today with a post reviewing 2013. I can't even believe that we are already into 2014! Time is flying by so quickly.

January:
By far the best thing that happened in January was the birth of my baby nephew Ryan. He is so much fun to be around and I have so enjoyed getting to watch him grow in this first year of his life.

February:
Over President's Day Weekend I made a trip down to Ashton, Idaho with family to go snowmobiling. It was so fun to share this with my in laws and my husband for their first time! And we got to see a dogsled race!

March:
My bridal shower was in March! And it was so great! I got to see so many of my friends and family, and I am so thankful for the shower that they put on for me!

April:
Mom's Weekend for University of Idaho was in April and I went down to see some family! We always have so much fun down there!

May:
In May I participated in Blog Every Day in May. I think this is when I started taking my blog more seriously and putting more effort and more of myself into it. My sister also moved in with Justin and I for the summer, which is always fun!

June:
The wedding!!! I got married in June! Probably the best art of the whole year!

I promise I will get my butt together and do some wedding posts soon!

July:
Probably the second best thing of the year... going to Maui for our Honeymoon! So so so much fun. It was the best vacation I've ever been on!

August:
In August I went to Watershed, a country music festival, with some friends. It was a blast! Luke Bryan was amazing and will always have a small piece of my heart. Sorry Justin. =)

September:
September I went to Moscow for Homecoming. It was a lot of fun!

October:
At the beginning of the month I went on a yoga retreat with my MIL, the next weekend was my grandparent's 50th Anniversary party, and at the end of the month was Halloween. It was a fun fun month!
