happy 2013

too lazy to do a year end review this year. so it's being done on my phone while i wait for steven to come home from work so we can "celebrate" new year's eve after waking up at 4am and driving all day. I'll blame it on the baby, but really I'm just lazy, but baby, tired...it's a legitimate lazy.

A few highlights for you {in chronological order}:

*disneyland with the hoppers
*a visit from the hopper parents
*our first anniversary!! trip to park city
*emily and blake's temple marriage
*a trip to California -->balboa island for frozen bananas (steven's new loves...&mine too)
*steven's internship and crazy prep for fall full time interviews
*trips to the driving range and steven's many trips golfing
*hoppers summer Utah trip
*steven's bday (with his fam in town)
*steven's brother returned from his mission-->met them in newport beach for a fun weekend
*and then everyone left and Steven went back to Utah for work and I stayed and played with my fam and sewed a skirt
*a new school year! last year teaching and steven's last official semester at BYU
*kendrick family visit in Utah with a baby announcement from erin and mike!!
*celebrating my bday in Dallas at the ritz carlton (not on our dime)...our future home
*california for thanksgiving
*lauren & andrew's temple marriage
*arizona for christmas
*prayers and temple trips for...

the two most important:
*steven's amazing job offer!!!! (hence the Dallas trip)
*a baby girl on her way!!!!

2012 was pretty good to us. And it's gifts will be "opened" in 2013 with a new baby and a move for a great job. we couldn't be blessed more. so grateful for our supportive and loving families and friends.

here's to an even better 2013!
