we made it

Phew, we made it through 2011.

I say that for several, big reasons.

I'm  grateful for the tender mercies we've had this year.  

There have been many.

I'm also happy to say, that I made it taking a picture every. single. day.  

Sometimes it was really easy, sometimes it was a lot harder.  I haven't decided yet if I'm going to do it again for 2012, but it will be something similar (and I know I really need to decide ASAP!).  I'm making a book with our daily adventures, and I'll show it to you as soon as its printed.

Until then, here's a few more of our recent POTD's:

The Sunday paper with all of the Christmas ads:

Sliding down the stairs:

Crashed on the floor:

 I helped with gingerbread houses in Kaden's class:

I don't know what he'd been eating, but it was obviously so good that he had to lick the plate clean:

Happy New Year!  

Things are looking up around here, and we're looking forward to seeing what the new year has in store for our little family!
