I came across a neat idea at MamieKnits, she did a year in review with pictures, posting her first and last picture taken for each month. I'm such a copycat and I have nothing else to blog about, so I'm going to jump right in. I'm going to be candid, open, and honest, or lazy, depending on how one would like to look at it. If the pictures are not already photoshopped, I'm not going to touch them. Ready?
January 2008
Climbing a big hill while hiking.
Random picture of The Kids' bathroom.
February
I got up extra early one morning to ensure TGFFKids made it safely to school one day.
We took a trip to Calico, where The Boy worked on perfecting his picture taking pout.
March
Um...popcorn? To be fair, I don't think *I* took this one. I'm fairly sure this one came from The Girl.
Max came to visit for Easter. The Boy wrote a letter to Santa, begging for his buddy to come.
April
Zeb joined The Family.
The Boy played with his Legos. A lot. Like, all the time. Like he did nothing else for a very long while.
May
The Girl received an Award at school.
The Boy totally kicked TheBestMan's butt at darts. Because he cheated. A lot. I never noticed how dirty his walls are. Yuck.
June
The Dad jumped on board with my crazy eco-friendly ideas. Most of which we still practice!
I started cooking some yummy food after a long hiatus from cooking at all.
July
Lego creations littered my world.
We spent an awesome week in Ohio, hanging with our family. It was way too short.
August
School started. These kids are growing up way too fast.
We camped, with TGFF. It was a blast, especially when TGFFDad walked The Dog for us.
September
I made mini cookies and made The Boy very, very happy.
The Boy almost enjoyed his 3rd year of Soccer with The Coach Who Wasn't.
October
We enjoyed our first official Ranger event, a long day at The Show for sure.
We enjoyed Halloween and the massive year end sugar high it started.
November
The Boy did some extra credit kicking.
I gave up trying to shoot my children and went for a degree in Nature Photography instead. The leaves are much more compliant than my children.
December
The Ohio Grammy came out for The Aunt's baby shower, but stayed a few days with us first. She got to experience a long day at The Horse Show as well.
We rang in the New Year. With the only people that hang out with us at all apparently, TheGoodFriendsFamily. Thank goodness they love us.
That was kind of fun. I think I will work on making sure my first and last pictures of 2009 have actual people in them. It's lots more fun that way.
Wow, time flies when you're having fun! What a nice summary. Can't wait to see what 2009 brings. :)
