Merry Christmas and Happy New year! Only the best for you and your sweet family!
Okay, that was freaking AWESOME!! I love how you incorporated all the months...hopefully they will all end up in a kick arse book. I also think its super cool that your hubby will be going to my husbands alma mater. You guys aren't far from my hubby's old stomping grounds. We are in the LBC about 2x a month.
I cracked up at why you guys are homeschooling. Funny stuff!! I'm going to start homeschooling next year so if you have any tips for me please share.
Many blessings for the coming year and good luck with baby #3.
Thanks for the card, Heidi!! Merry Christmas to you and your family. :D

That was a great post! You guys have been very busy in the past year. I was reading one of the threads on Scapbook.com that you, me and Gina had going for a few years and it was so much fun to read back on what going on back then, you were pregnant with Calvin and Gina had just found out she was expecting #3. Those were good times!
