When I look back at 2013, I remember lots of tears, frustration and pleading prayers. As I put together my post, I was reminded of how incredibly wonderful my year really was. I would do it again. I wouldn't trade making all these wonderful memories.
In January we found out we were expecting baby number 3.
In February we celebrated Valentine's day, and said good-bye to baby number three.
In March we celebrated Easter; the Resurrection, the Atonement and eternal families held new meaning for us.
Summer pulled us out the dark, and we partied hard.
- We attended baseball games.
- Watched a movie in the park
- Chandler finished kindergarten
- We had a fabulous lake mead trip with Tates
- We spent a packed week in Portland: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 5
- After miscarriage number 2 in early June, we BROUGHT HOME A PUPPY!!!
- We celebrated Chandler's sixth and Sterling's third birthday
Late in August we lost our third baby, Chandler started first grade, but we weren't done with our summer parties yet! We spent Labor day in California with our best friends, and I want to do it every weekend!
In the fall Chandler played baseball; it was raging hot at his first game in September and bitter cold at his last in November.
We enjoyed playgroup trips to the Gilcrease Nature Sanctuary, and the Gilcrease Pumpkin Patch.
In October Grandma Pelton & Eric, Uncle Cody & Aunt Audra spent a week with us. Celebrating Halloween and family.
We celebrated Halloween with friends, pumpkins, and zombies.
In November we marveled about the year being almost over. Tates came from all over the country, crammed themselves into our house and we celebrated the things we were thankful for: gluttony style.
December flew by! We enjoyed Christmas parties of all varieties: with our ward, with our friends, and with our work friends.
We spent a quick Christmas weekend with Grandpa Dave.
We spent Christmas at home and enjoyed our small family.
We spent the weekend after Christmas in California with our not-so-small Tate family.
We rang in a quiet new year with the Humpherys and said goodbye to 2013 forever.

We are hopeful for a 2014 as wonderful as 2013... maybe just a little more wonderful.

I don't think you could have put it any better! Sounds like 2013 overall was wonderful, but I hope 2014 is super duper fabulous! :)
