I cannot believe we're about to ring in the year 2016! I feel like it was just weeks ago I was ready to pop out a baby boy and that's now been almost 2 years ago. WOAH... not only am I a mom, but I'm a mom of a toddler. Weird! I still feel like I'm 21 at times. Anyways, this past year was a good one! 2015 brought about many awesome memories, lots of laughter, some loss, and a handful of changes for our family.
In late February, we listed our first house for sale and much to our surprise it sold within 3 days! Just a few days later we went under contract on our new house, and in late April we moved in and now call it home.
April was a busy month for us! Mac turned ONE and we celebrated with a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse party. Clete and I went on an adult only vacation with friends to Mexico. It was a fun filled time and I hope we are able to do something similar next year! We celebrated Queenie's birthday, and then on Clete's birthday we closed and moved to our new house!
We celebrated 4 years of marriage in June! And in July, took our first big family vacation with Mac. Our road trip to Seaside, FL was a blast! We're already looking forward to our next beach vacation!
We attended a few weddings in the fall, one being Clete's younger brother's. It's completely bizarre to me that Thomas is now married. He was in the 7th grade when Clete and I started dating, so it makes me feel real old.
Clete received a promotion with work, and finally was the one who got treated to a new truck. I took a new business adventure with Plexus, and am loving it! Mac dressed up as a dragon for Halloween, and loved trick or treating. We spent Thanksgiving in Tulsa at my parents, and stayed home to host Christmas at our house.
Looking back, 2015 has been a great year! We are blessed in so many ways, and so grateful to the Lord above for everything he's given us. I always love New Year's because it gives me a feeling of starting over. You have a fresh year ahead starting on January 1st and can fill it with new memories and new experiences. Happy New Year, CHEERS to 2016!!
2016 will be an exciting year now that you have a toddler. an adults only vacation to Mexico sounds awesome. hope you have a great new year
