Remembering 2014

Obviously having three children puts a damper on my blogging. I think I have posted about ten times since Sam was born. Eek!

There are things I want to record here about 2014, so even though we are over three months into 2015, I'm doing a recap.

January
Leah turned 4! My Mom came from Idaho, and Hayley and Jocelyn came from Alaska to celebrate!

February
We visited lighthouses in Maine and it snowed a lot in Boston.

 March
Samuel turned one!

April
We had ourselves a nice, quiet Easter,

And watched the Boston Marathon (SO inspiring!)

May
We went to Maui!

June
Samuel finally started walking!

 Lainy finished 1st grade!

 July
 Brad had a birthday, we went swimming nearly every day, picked blackberries and roasted marshamallows in our back yard, put on a production of Peter Pan with some friends, and had the most lovely summer!

August
We went to Idaho to welcome my sister Cassi home from her mission and recharge our souls with family.

 When we got back to Boston (after the worst traveling experience ever, ever, ever), Lainy turned 7!

September
My parents and my brother's family came for a visit! We saw a Red Sox vs. Yankees game (one of Derek Jeter's last games), went to Maine, and let the cousins play to their heart's content.

October

Peter Pan theme Halloween. Samuel was thrilled about trick-or-treating.

November
I turned 30 (strange) and Brad's parents came for Thanksgiving. We love them so much!

December
Our Christmas celebrations were so fun and sweet and wonderful. Our kids are such fun ages. Christmas was magical!

Goodbye 2014. You were a good year!
