2011 Highlights

What a year 2011 was! We had so many changes last year...more than any other year of our life so far. But it was such a great year, also, in which we were abundantly blessed by God. So here are some of our highlights, month by month: 

January: Aaron got a new job at North Pointe Marathon. What a blessing that job and his bosses Tony and Manjit have been to us!!

February: We finally told all of our family and friends the news that we are going to begin training to be missionaries. It was an exciting but hard time.

March: We put our house up for sale and began selling many of our possessions.

April: I started my blog :) (The Title)

May: Ivy turned 6 months old. (Six Month Ago)

June: Some friends from church showed us around the city that would be our home for the next two years (Our Own Personal Tour)

July: We spent an incredibly fun week on vacation with my family! (A Week in Marco)

August: We moved, (Moving In and 2100 to 440) and then a few days later, we were very unexpectedly blessed with a son!! (We Never Expected)

September: Ivy and Israel got to go to the zoo for the first time. (First Zoo Trip)

October: I was honored to be in my friend Leah's wedding. (My Best Friend's Wedding)

November: We announced that we are expecting a baby! (18, 9, 0)

December: Israel's adoption was finalized. (It's Official!)

We are so excited to meet our third baby in 2012 and see what else God has in store for us!

It was quite a year for us as well.
I have a feeling 2012 will be another interesting year, but maybe not quite as interesting as 2011.
