*Because it is easier to list here than it is to list everywhere. Most of the house improvements were made possible by all the help we have received from awesome family and friends.

***I’m sure there are other things that got done that I don’t remember as well. For the fact that I got hit with a large amount of family drama starting in March when my dad ran off and continuing throughout the year, I feel like I accomplished a ton of things this year. I would not wish to relive this year (due to the drama), but I also wouldn’t say the year was a total bust either. I still did a lot and I’ve grown through the trails. I am looking forward greatly to 2013. There are things that I will change about me, projects that I will complete, and most importantly the company of those I love and interact with that I will enjoy. *raises a glass in toast* Here is to the end of a roller coaster year and a healthy outlook for the adventures I will have in 2013. Also, 13 is my favorite number, so I look forward to being able to write it in the date all year long. May 2013 be full of many wonderful blessings for you and yours. Have a Happy New Year! I will be getting my list of things I hope to accomplish in 2013 together and should have it up within the next few days. Enjoy the rest of 2012 (unless it is already completed for you) and lets have a blast in the new year.
