My Souvenirs of 2013

Happy New Years Eve! 

It's been a very exciting, adventurous and love-filled year. I can't believe that it's all over. Tonight we will go out with friends as husband and wife and celebrate the year we had, and cheers to the new year beginning. I can't wait to share many more NYE's with friends and family. 

January. 
Our little girl was finally 6 months old and that's when the chaos began in 2013. So began a fun-filled year with her meant learning new things, learning how to become a better mom and dad, and more patient parents. She was on the go... crawling, scooting, beginning to talk and eat more solids!

February.
We officially started wedding planning. We booked our venue! Lennon learned how to say DADA... and literally never stopped talking since then! 

March.
Was an amazing month for me... My horrible boss I hated so much resigned which was a blessing on our entire staff and my employees! I started taking on more responsibilities and finally loved my job (that only lasted a short while)! 

April.
Between wedding planning, DIY projects and being a working mom I forgot what mattered most.... my daughter. I forgot how much I need you ... I thought to myself one night and forgot how much she needed me. So, I took a step back, spend a lot more time with my little one and let her help DIY when I needed to get things done! & speaking of DIY Wedding... remember this? How To: DIY Wedding

May.
So many things all SUMMER are happening in May! My 1st Mothers Day was amazing! I spent the day with my little Lennon and fiance' Dan. I feel so blessed! The weather in May was beautiful and it was the perfect time for us to take advantage of our new baby stroller and the perfect back yard we have being right next to the soccer fields! We also took Lennon to the beach for the first time... SHE LOVED IT! Lennon's day at the beach... what a sight to see! Then, I finally died my hair back to blonde... for the first time since High School, and it surprisingly turned out great! I've been blonde ever since :)

June. 
I had an AWESOME BIRTHDAY spent at Cedar Point with my love riding rides, and winning an over sized, over priced, under played with Minion! We had a great time for Dan's first Father's Day and many family parties with all the birthdays and fun summer get togethers at the pool!

July. 
Filled with our favorite Holiday, Lennon's FIRST birthday EXTRAVAGANZA!, and my BIFF's bachelorette party... it was a great month!Her birthday party was a success and she loved every minute of it! Cake,toys, princesses, tutus and balloons galore! Her first year was amazing... I will never forget the day she was born but this flew by way too fast!

August.
When I wrote this blog last year I was wishing for a new job in 2013. This month 2013, it happened.I felt like one Lucky Girl! I quit that horrid job and started at a new career that I love! My BIFF got married, her wedding was so beautiful and lovely! BIFF's Wedding

September. 
Great-Grandpa Baker passed away. I sat down one day and I thought about all of the beautiful memories surrounding my family. It was one horrible month... but our family came together and never let each other go as we watched my Great-Grandma hold Great-Grandpa's hand one last time. A Time to Weep and a Time to Laugh.

October.
It was finally the beginning of Fall... which means lots of DIY projects, Fall candles, and pumpkin farms and my Bridal Shower. It was amazing! I love Fall! I love my family, my daughter, my fiance' (soon to be hubby) and everything in life! 

November.
We were finally getting down to crunch time! ... 1 month before the big day we had so much to do. Decorations, planning, cleaning, dress fitting, etc. It was a BLAST! So busy, so much to do but it was so fun! Thanksgiving had a great meaning this year and we had so much to be THANKFUL for! 

December.
I married the man of my dreams and we are beginning a wonderful life together! Enough said. <3


LET'S CELEBRATE 2013 & ALL OF THE MEMORIES
& CHEERS to 2014!

HAVE FUN!
