Welcome 2013 and exciting new adventures!

2012 was a fantastic year, but I was happy to welcome 2013!

Highlights of 2012 include:
Switching jobs- the grass wasn't really greener but I got more time home with my husband and Champ

Traveling to Alaska to see my best friend, Lauren Coburn. Experience of a lifetime.

Discovering we were expecting our first child!

Traveling to Lake Lure for a wedding- so pretty and peaceful.

Finding out that my sister was also pregnant and due four weeks after me.
Keeping myself entertained while Jim was away at Squadron Officer School in Montgomery, AL.
Finding out we were having a son! We decided to name him, Lucas Charles.

Meeting up with my husband in Alabama for our annual Alabama football game. RTR!

Having my husband leave again for IP School in Altus, Oklahoma!

Welcoming our new nephew, Will, into the world!

Celebrating our First Anniversary!

Decorating the nursery- we chose a Monkey theme!

Attending an awesome Baby Shower hosted by family and friends in Grundy.
Celebrating the holidays at various times with our families!
Ringing in the New Year with both my three boys!

2013 looks to be a promising year filled with the new adventure of being parents! We have 30 days to go until our son is officially due to enter this world. Unfortunately, it appears my son is so much like his parents that he would rather be early than on time. This past week I was put on bed rest due to my progress and my OB being concerned that Lucas would before term (37 weeks). So, here I am, Ms. Independent having to be waited on by my loving husband. Not exactly what we had planned for our final weeks of life before parenthood. But, God has a greater plan and we will do whatever it takes to keep our baby boy safe.

Welcome 2013! We are so very ready to meet our sweet Lucas!
