Nat and I both agree that 2011 was our best year yet! I'm actually a little sad to see it go. We hit some big milestones this year! We celebrated 5 years of marriage and we both turned 30. Addy turned 3 and Emmy, my baby turned 1. We celebrated that we've been in our new house for a year. We had the perfect summer which included a great vacation, a short camping trip, some fun day trips, and four weddings - including two of Nat's siblings and my Mom. Addy started pre-school and is LOVING it. We went on our first hotel vacation with the girls to Lake Louise and it wasn't as bad as we thought it would be. We spent Christmas at my Dad's, which consisted of two day long car trips and a family bedroom, both of which the girls were terrific for and we had a great time. And what year would be complete without a quick trip to the hospital (I seem to remember doing the same thing for Emmy at this time last year) for Addy with a case of croup. (She's fine, the steroids did the trick, although it was a little nerve racking the first night and I am so thankful we still have a room monitor for her room otherwise we wouldn't have heard her struggling to breathe.)
That was so beautiful and joyful. I got a perfect picture of Addy and a perfect picture of Emmy as well as amazing group pictures at Christmas. You gotta see them! I love you all SO much.

Great job Heidi and Nat! Looks like you made some great memories and I love thinking back to the stories you have told me throughout the year that match up to these pics. Well done, so good!
