23 in review
I had a melt down. Yes a melt down. I was turning 24, I felt so old, i felt i hadn't accomplished much in my life. (Yes if I'm having a melt down now - when I turn 40 I probably won't come out of my room for a week) I need reassurance, everything is okay. So to help me feel better, I decided to recap of few of my favorite highlights...
Here it goes...
September- I have to first start out with finding out I was pregnant :)
In November we creatively told our families of our good fortune( both here and here), went to support our Dad at Dancing with the Stars, painted Aunt Mary's room, choreographed and performed Joseph and His Dream Coat.
February we Found our boy, my 23rd Birthday, and school-school and more school.
In May I waddled my way through school and graduated with a Deaf Studies Diploma, my sister got married! brandon and I took a graduation trip to Vegas, and friend, family and neighborhood baby showers.
june. Oh love. Our sweet angel boy Daxton was born, got a good laugh out of the National Enquirer, but before all this was my pregnant belly shoot.
September, i ran my post pregnant body over the muddy hills in the Dirty dash, started my new job teaching dance and voice and went to see the heart-melting Tim McGraw
October, attended the beautiful wedding of Don and Jessi, escaped from jail, Daxton learned how to carve a pumpkin and we became obnoxious parents as we dressed Daxton up in ties.
Phew... that feels better. Its good to look back and see some of the things that has been accomplished and done. Mathew Arnold sums up the rest of my feelings for me...

Make it a good year!
