Last year was great, the past decade was great! A few things that happened last year include
- Todd got through one more semester of college! It was a huge financial adjustment having him in class, but now he is that much closer to graduating (just 3 more classes!) and it feels great!
- We found out we were expecting! After much prayer and fasting we were blessed with a pregnancy and were soo excited.
- Potty trained Wes! He was just about 27 months when I decided I was done with the diaper thing...and so was he! After just a few days and only accidents we had it mastered.
- Family Reunion! This summer was the huge Wilkins Family Reunion. It was pretty exhausting but such a blast to be around so much family all during the week.
- Girls camp. although I was really dreading it, I actually had a LOT of fun!
- TY Doyle Hart joined our family in October, and we love him so much!
- We moved to New York, and we LOVE it here! It's been so nice to be around so many church history sites, including the Joseph Smith home and Sacred Grove.
- Shanell came home from her mission and came to visit!
- Shanell and Logan got married! Welcome to the family Logan!
And now for some things I plan on accomplishing this year
- Read Jesus the Christ. When I was 13 I suddenly realized that I had been able to read for quite sometime and had yet to read the Book of Mormon. I felt disappointed in myself and began that summer with an intense study of that wonderful book! I've always wanted to read Jesus the Christ, but just haven't made it a priority and now I'm 24 and still haven't read it (sensing a pattern here)! When I went home I found out my sisters were reading it and so I (finally) jumped on the bandwagon. I'm about 40 pages in and am LOVING it!
- Lose 10 pounds! I've never really had weight related resolutions, but there is some still some baby weight hanging around that has got to go!
- Keep improving my cooking skills! I've been trying to make a point of trying new recipes as of late, and I hope to continue to do so! Last night I made these Lime Chicken Fajitas. They were delicious!
And...just because pictures make it better, a picture of me on Christmas day!
