2014 was a great year for our little family.
We had a whole lot of new adventures.
We moved to Nampa, which is great because we are finally around family again!
Kyle got into pharmacy school!!!! (finally. an end date to this darn school thing!!)
I was going to get promoted to a manager at mcdonalds, but now i am promoted to full time stay at home mom!! ( which is the better deal!! obviously! )
We got pregnant which was a blessing and also a huge trial that we had to go through when we lost the baby.
We have a potty trained kid! Which is probably the best thing to ever happen this last year!
We went to yellowstone. which was our first vacation just the two of us since we first got married.
Sage is growing! She isn't a baby anymore. which is sad. but also great! because soon she will be able to do things for herself. if you looked up terrible twos in the dictionary her picture would be there. she is very stereotypical when it come to her tantrums and stubbornness. She is so tall. she is already in 4t clothing. She dresses herself and is obsessed with shoes. She loves her cousins more than anything in the world! They are her best friends and i am so grateful that we moved here so that she could be around them. she is a little mimic. she sings songs. frozen is her favorite but it is really cute to watch her sing the opening song to Aladdin. she knows what she wants and its really easy for her to tell us what she needs because her vocabulary is amazing! and she just started playing pretend which is also very cute! her favorite person this year would probably have to be zacca.
she is just so loving and such a joy to have. we love all the laughs that she brings and the silly things that she is starting to do.
kyle is doing amazing too! he got into pharmacy school this last year and he is so happy that we finally have an end date to look forward to. he found us an amazing little house to live in. i wasn't too sure about it at first, but i'm so glad i listened to him because there is so much space. NO MORE BOXES! and also it is very manageable. he also had to get alot of volunteer hours in this summer and it was very hard to find places that would allow him to go to. but he finished all 200 of them. he also got a motorcycle!! and we are very excited about that. (still nervous and worried. but. still happy for him.) he has wanted one ever since we got married and that little scooter didnt count. (obviously. its not a motorcycle.) but he loves it and still gets to ride it a lot even though its winter.
and i had a very good year too! i had excelled at mcdonalds and accepted a management position. but. kyle got into school so i didnt get that experience. but still knowing i was good enough for that is enough for me. :) after we moved to nampa i took some time off from responsibilities and spent some time at my mom's. which was great because it allowed me to try and figure out this mom thing with sage without the stress of everyday things. and now sage and me are best friends. :) but it was also great to be with my family for a while too. when we came home i got pregnant! which i was so excited about because i had wanted it to happen for a long time. and then at 9 weeks we lost the baby. which was a hard time for us. but. we are a strong family and we got through it. :) so now i am focusing on being a better mom to the baby that i do have. which being a stay at home mom has been the best thing to happen to me. i love the focus that i can give my family and being a homemaker. i love how resourceful this time is making me. and i am finally going to open my etsy shop this next year! i am really going to do it! i am done talking about it. :)
so this year may have had its trials. but. it has been one of the best years for our family. we have been so blessed. :)
and i know that next year will have many more blessings in it. :)
What a wonderful roundup of your year. We love you all so much. Here's to an even better 2015!
