Remember 2013?

This is way way late, but I decided I need to do it for my family's records anyway. I really need to be better at blogging this next year. Hopefully this kickstarts me into blogging action.

2013 was a crazy, never-would-have-expected-that, fun, adventurous year. First of all, Heber was just a baby at the beginning of the year, and then we had Simon by the end of the year. Looking at those photos it's almost hard to tell which baby is which. lol.

Starting the year off, we moved from our condo to my parent's old house to fix up and do a million projects. We found out we were pregnant with #2 on our 5yr anniversary and Heber had his first birthday in the spring. We went on several adventures: Capitol Reef, Bear Lake, girl's trip to San Juan Islands with my sisters and mom, and Monterey where Eric had a school rotation. We welcomed baby Simon to our family in the fall and celebrated Eric's younger brother's wedding with all the Williams family together. Eric and I learned how to make Swiss Bratzeli cookies for Christmas and we got in a few good ski trips to Sundance. We went to a Bob Dylan concert, our first family Giants game, and several bike rides this summer.

It was a wonderful year. I feel like it was the year for growing this family, and keeping everyone healthy and strong. We kept Simon home most of the winter because he was in the NICU for a bit and we wanted him healthy. I am so glad 2013 happened the way it did, because I couldn't imagine my life any other way than how it is right now.
