what we've been up to

Year In Review: 2017

I seriously have no idea where the last year has gone.  It really is true that the older you get, the faster the time goes.  We packed so much in a year and I really enjoyed putting together this post and getting to revisit all the fun we've had!


january

We started off the year by getting Teagen's 6 month pictures taken.  Look how little she was here!



Our sweet girl was baptized!  We built a house last year and moved to a new town, so we ultimately wanted to wait and find a new church before getting Teagen baptized.





february

Matching, festive jams are what this mama lives for.




It was unseasonably warm in February (unlike these negative temps Indiana is currently experiencing) and we took full advantage of playing outside!





march

Grandma took us to Disney On Ice!




Daddy and Kenna tried to catch a sneaky leprechaun.




We took our first trip to Great Wolf Lodge and loved every moment of it.  I can't wait to go back this year!


april

I celebrated turning 28 with shiny balloons and chocolate cake!




Easter brought us egg hunting in the most gorgeous weather (hello shorts)!



may

Happy Mother's Day!  Tommy and the girls took me to my favorite breakfast place and spoiled me rotten all day long!





Hello, Lake Season!  We spent Memorial Day Weekend at our very favorite place!








june

Teagen Gwen celebrated her first birthday with a "One in a Melon" party! So much fun!





Father's Day 2017 was spent at the lake (we seriously never want to leave)!





We had our family photos taken...yet again (Tommy loves these sessions)!

We went to the FGL & Nelly Concert with some of our favorites and got to act like we were back in college again (sorry mom)!




july

4th of July Weekend would never be spent anywhere but at the lake!





Tommy and I celebrated 4 years of marriage with a little staycation!




Aunt Molly got married!  She had the most beautiful July wedding and my girls shined as flower girls!  Tommy even performed the ceremony.  He now requests we call him Rev. Thom (insert eyeroll here).




august

Goodbye, summer vacation (so many tears)!  I started my 6th year teaching kindergarten and my girls got a new babysitter!  It is always so hard going back to work after spending so much time off with my babies.  




Kenna Ann celebrated her birthday with a 3esta!  This party was my favorite to plan and it turned out so cute!  




We ended August with a perfect summer night at Zoo Brew!



september

Kenna started bible school class, gymnastics, and soccer all within a week of each other.  So many firsts for my mama heart to handle!





We celebrated the first day of fall with pumpkins on the front porch and shorts!


We took Kenna to Chicago for the weekend!





october

Matching jams to start off one of my favorite months!



We spent every weekend visiting pumpkin patches and apple orchards!




Took a trip with the fam to visit Aunt Hannah at IU!



We threw Tommy a surprise 30th birthday party!



Trick or Treat!






november

I am a firm believer in Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving!



We baked a lot of turkey goodies!





Happy Thanksgiving!  I already miss all that delicious food!



december

Elsa the Elf joined us for the 2nd year in a row and brought quite the welcome breakfast!





Hello snow!  We experienced the first major downfall of the season!



Cookie Baking Day!



Well...better luck next year, Santa!



We were officially asked to be bridesmaids in my brother's wedding next year!



Merry Christmas!



Happy New Year!



I love these people of mine and I truly feel blessed with this life that I get to live.  I'm so excited to see what 2018 will bring us!
