2011 this will be our year...

I am extremely behind on blog posts but I wanted to end the year on a high note. After Gideon was born and my postpartum depression was at its worst, my husband sent me an email with a link to Ok Go's cover of The Zombies', "This Will Be Our Year" and it changed my entire perspective.

And Mac was right, this was our year.

January

"The warmth of your love is like the warmth of the sun,
and this will be our year, took a long time to come"






February

"don't let go of my hand now darkness has gone,
and this will be our year, took a long time to come"






March

"and I won't forget the way you held me up when I was down,
and I won't forget the way you said, "Darling I love you" "




April

"You gave me faith to go on..."






May

"Now we're there and we've only just begun
This will be our year, took a long time to come"








June

"The warmth of your smile, smile for me, little one,
and this will be our year, took a long time to come"






July

"You don't have to worry, all your worried days are gone,
this will be our year, took a long time to come"






August

"and I won't forget, the way you held me up when I was down,"






September

"and I won't forget the way you said,
"Darling I love you," you gave me faith to go on,"






October

"Now we're there and we've only just begun,
and this will be our year, took a long time to come"






November

"Yeah we only just begun,
yeah this will be our year..."






December

"...took a long time to come."







Our love to you all; Happy New Year!

Christmas 2011

Christmas was pretty awesome. Christmas eve was spent at my dad's with a wonderful meal, thoughtful gifts, and good company. Christmas morning we enjoyed spending time as a family, it was a mind blowing first to say the least. Gideon seemed particularly happy with the piano Santa brought and Mac even got in a nap. Later we went to my moms for lunch and then on to the Edwards for Christmas dinner. All in all we were terribly spoiled and wonderfully blessed.

Here are a few Christmas morning videos:





Also cousin Peyton is so incredibly helpful
